1. What is Bimatoprost Stada and what is it used for

Bimatoprost Stada 0.3 mg/ml eye drops, solution in single-dose container is a medicine for glaucoma. This medicine belongs to a group of medicines called prostamides.

This medicine is used to reduce high pressure in the eye. This medicine can be used alone or with other eye drops called beta-blockers that also reduce pressure.

The eye contains a clear, watery liquid that keeps the inside of the eye healthy. This liquid is constantly drained out of the eye and new liquid is produced to replace it. If the liquid does not drain quickly enough, the pressure inside the eye increases. This medicine works by increasing the drainage of the liquid. This reduces the pressure inside the eye. If this pressure is not reduced, it could lead to a disease called glaucoma and damage your vision.

This medicine does not contain preservatives.

The changes are usually mild, but if they worsen, they can affect your field of vision. The changes may disappear if you stop using this medicine.

Bimatoprost may also cause darkening and growth of eyelashes, as well as darkening of the skin around the eyelid. The color of the iris may darken. These changes may be permanent and more noticeable if only one eye is being treated.
