1. What TRAVOFIX is and what it is used for

TRAVOFIX eye drops solution is a combination of two active substances (travoprost and timolol).
Travoprost is a prostaglandin analogue whose mechanism of action consists in increasing the outflow
of fluid from the eye, thereby reducing intraocular pressure. Timolol is a beta-blocker whose mechanism of action
consists in reducing the production of fluid within the eye. The two active substances act
simultaneously to reduce intraocular pressure.
TRAVOFIX eye drops are used to treat elevated intraocular pressure in adults, including the elderly.
Such pressure levels may lead to a condition known as glaucoma.

2. What you need to know before using TRAVOFIX

Do not use TRAVOFIX

  • if you are allergic to travoprost, prostaglandins, timolol, beta-blockers, or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
  • if you have or have previously had respiratory problems such as asthma, severe chronic obstructive bronchitis (a severe lung disease that may cause wheezing, difficulty breathing, and/or long-lasting cough) or other types of breathing problems.
  • in case of severe hay fever.
  • if you have slow heart rate, heart failure, or a heart rhythm disorder (irregular heartbeat).
  • if you have clouding of the transparent surface of the eye. Ask your doctor if you are affected by any of these conditions.

Warnings and precautions
Talk to your doctor before using TRAVOFIX if you suffer or have previously suffered from:

  • coronary heart disease (symptoms may include chest pain or tightness, shortness of breath, or suffocation), heart failure, low blood pressure.
  • changes in heart rate such as slow heartbeat.
  • breathing problems, asthma, or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.
  • circulatory disorders (such as Raynaud's disease or Raynaud's syndrome).
  • diabetes (because timolol may mask signs and symptoms of low blood sugar).
  • overactive thyroid gland (because timolol may mask signs and symptoms of thyroid disease).
  • myasthenia gravis (chronic muscle weakness).
  • cataract surgery.
  • eye inflammation.

If you need to undergo any type of surgical procedure, inform your doctor that you are using TRAVOFIX, as timolol may alter the effects of certain medicines used during anesthesia.
If you experience any severe allergic reaction (skin rash, eye redness and itching) while using TRAVOFIX, regardless of the cause, treatment with adrenaline may not be sufficiently effective. Therefore, if you receive any other treatment, inform your doctor that you are using TRAVOFIX.
TRAVOFIX may change the color of your iris (the colored part of the eye). This change could be permanent.
TRAVOFIX may increase the length, thickness, color, and/or number of your eyelashes and may cause unusual hair growth on your eyelids.
Travoprost can be absorbed through the skin; therefore, it should not be used by pregnant women or women who intend to become pregnant. If any amount of the medicine comes into contact with the skin, wash it off immediately.

Children
TRAVOFIX must not be used in children and adolescents under 18 years of age.

Other medicines and TRAVOFIX
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines, including medicines without a prescription.
TRAVOFIX may interact with other medicines you are taking, including other eye drops for glaucoma. Inform your doctor if you are taking or plan to take medicines to lower blood pressure, heart medications including quinidine (used to treat heart problems and some types of malaria), or medicines for diabetes or the antidepressants fluoxetine or paroxetine.

Pregnancy, breastfeeding and fertility
If you are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding, consult your doctor before taking this medicine.
Do not use TRAVOFIX during pregnancy unless your doctor considers it necessary. If there is a possibility of becoming pregnant, you must use adequate contraception while using this medicine.
Do not use TRAVOFIX while breastfeeding. TRAVOFIX may be excreted in breast milk.

Driving and using machines
You may experience blurred vision for a period of time after using TRAVOFIX. Do not drive or operate machinery until these symptoms have disappeared. TRAVOFIX may also cause hallucinations, dizziness, nervousness, or fatigue in some patients.
Do not drive or operate machinery until such symptoms have subsided.
For those engaged in sports: using the drug without therapeutic need constitutes doping and may result in a positive anti-doping test.

TRAVOFIX contains hydrogenated castor oil which may cause irritation and skin reactions.
TRAVOFIX contains 0.15 mg/ml of benzalkonium chloride.
Benzalkonium chloride is a preservative that can be absorbed by soft contact lenses and may cause a change in their color.
Remove your contact lenses before using this medicine and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.
Benzalkonium chloride may also cause eye irritation, especially if you have dry eye or corneal disorders (damage to the transparent outer layer of the eye). If you experience an unusual sensation in the eye, burning, or pain after using this medicine, speak with your doctor.

3. How to use TRAVOFIX

Use this medicine exactly as directed by your doctor. If you have any doubts, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

The recommended dose is one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily, in the morning or evening.
Take the dose at the same time every day.
Use TRAVOFIX in both eyes only if specifically instructed by your doctor.
TRAVOFIX is for ophthalmic use only, as eye drops.

Three sequential drawings showing the
  • Immediately before first use, write the date of opening the bottle in the space provided on the label.
  • Make sure you have a mirror available.
  • Wash your hands.
  • Unscrew the bottle cap.
  • Hold the bottle between your thumb and other fingers, with the tip pointing downwards.
  • Tilt your head backwards. Pull down the lower eyelid with a clean finger to create a "pocket" between the eyelid and the eye. The drop should be instilled here (figure 1).
  • Hold the tip of the bottle close to the eye. Using a mirror may be helpful.
  • Do not touch the eye, eyelid, surrounding areas, or any other surface with the tip of the bottle, as this may contaminate the eye drops.
  • Gently press the bottle to release one drop of TRAVOFIX at a time (figure 2). If a drop does not enter the eye, try again.
  • After using TRAVOFIX, press gently with one finger against the inner corner of the eye (near the nose) for 2 minutes (figure 3). This helps prevent TRAVOFIX from spreading into the rest of the body.
  • If you need to apply the drops to both eyes, repeat the above steps for the other eye.
  • Immediately replace and tighten the cap after use.

Use TRAVOFIX for the length of time prescribed by your doctor.

If you use more TRAVOFIX than you should
If you accidentally use too much TRAVOFIX, rinse your eye thoroughly with lukewarm water. Do not use further drops until the next scheduled dose.

If you forget to use TRAVOFIX
If you forget to use TRAVOFIX, simply continue with your next scheduled dose. Do not use a double dose to make up for the missed one. The dose must not exceed one drop per day per affected eye(s).

If you stop using TRAVOFIX
If you stop using TRAVOFIX without consulting your doctor, your intraocular pressure may become uncontrolled, which could lead to loss of vision.

If you are using other eye drops in addition to TRAVOFIX, wait at least 5 minutes between applying TRAVOFIX and the other eye drops.

If you wear soft contact lenses, do not use the eye drops while wearing them. Wait at least 15 minutes after using the drops before reinserting your contact lenses.

If you have any questions about how to use this medicine, consult your doctor or pharmacist.

4. Possible side effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them.
You can generally continue using the drops unless the side effects are severe. If you are concerned, consult your doctor or pharmacist. Do not stop using TRAVOFIX without first discussing it with your doctor.
