What is Lowprost Eye Drop
Lowprost Eye Drop is a prescription medication containing Bimatoprost (0.01% w/v), a prostaglandin analog primarily used to treat Glaucoma and Ocular Hypertension. It effectively reduces eye pressure by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor, thereby preventing vision loss and blindness.
This medicine, manufactured by Cipla Ltd, is suitable for adults and children. It is often prescribed as a standalone treatment or combined with other eye drops to manage high eye pressure.
Lowprost Eye Drop maintains a balanced intraocular pressure, which is crucial for preserving sight in patients at risk of optic nerve damage caused by elevated eye pressure.
Its role in Glaucoma treatment makes it an essential medication for managing long-term eye health.
