Xalacom - eye drops, related to combined antiglaucoma drugs. The drops contain 2 active components: timolol maleate, which reduces the accumulation of moisture, watery consistency in the ciliary epithelium and latanoprost, which reduces the intraocular pressure due to the acceleration of the outflow of water accumulated. The drops act already during the first hour after the beginning of their use and maximum efficiency develops after six-eight hours.

Xalacom® is een anti-glaucoom gecombineerd geneesmiddel met miotisch effect. Elke ml Xalacom® bevat Latanoprost 50mcg en Timolol Maleate LP, wat overeenkomt met timolol 5mg. Deze stoffen dragen bij tot de effectieve vermindering van de verhoogde intra-oculaire druk, dankzij twee verschillende werkingsmechanismen, die bijdragen tot een beter klinisch effect in vergelijking met monotherapie.

Generic Xalatan reduces pressure in the eye by increasing the amount of fluid that drains from the eye. Generic Xalatan (for the eyes) is used to treat certain types of glaucoma and other causes of high pressure inside the eye.
