GANFORT EYE DROPS (BIMATOPROST 0.03% W/V + TIMOLOL 0.5% W/V): Comprehensive Guide and Benefits
Introduction to GANFORT EYE DROPS
GANFORT: Dual-Action Antiglaucoma Therapy for Glaucoma & Ocular Hypertension
GANFORT EYE DROPS contain Bimatoprost 0.03% w/v (0.3 mg/ml) + Timolol 0.5% w/v (5 mg/ml), a combination Antiglaucoma Medicine belonging to the Prostaglandin Analogue + Beta-Blocker Drug Class. It is prescribed to reduce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, particularly when treatment with a single medicine is not sufficient.
Bimatoprost increases the drainage of aqueous humour from the eye, while Timolol reduces the production of aqueous humour. Together, these complementary actions effectively lower intraocular pressure and help protect the optic nerve from glaucoma-related damage.
GANFORT EYE DROPS are supplied as 1 bottle containing 3ml ophthalmic solution and should be used only under the supervision of an ophthalmologist.
