Mechanism of action
A prostaglandin F2alpha analogue that increases the outflow of aqueous humor, thus lowering intraocular pressure.
Travoprost is a prostaglandin analogue, supplied as 0.004% eye drops in a bottle for ocular use in adults. It treats open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Alcon is the originator company, and the medicine also appears under the names Travatan and Izba.
The drops increase the outflow of aqueous humour, which lowers pressure inside the eye. Onset is 2 to 4 hours, and the effect lasts around 24 hours. Iris pigmentation may deepen and the eyelashes may change, so contact lenses should be removed before the drops go in (MedlinePlus). Iritis and macular oedema require immediate medical attention, and the drops should not be used by anyone hypersensitive to travoprost.
