Avatan-T Eye Drop 0.004% + 0.5% is a combination ophthalmic solution containing Travoprost and Timolol Maleate, two effective medications used to reduce elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. This dual-action formulation combines the pressure-lowering effects of a prostaglandin analogue and a beta-blocker to provide greater control of eye pressure than either medicine alone.

Travoprost increases the outflow of aqueous humor through the uveoscleral pathway, while Timolol Maleate decreases the production of aqueous humor within the eye. Together, these complementary mechanisms effectively lower intraocular pressure, helping protect the optic nerve from damage and reducing the risk of progressive vision loss associated with glaucoma.

Avatan-T Eye Drop is typically prescribed for patients whose intraocular pressure is not adequately controlled with a single medication. Regular use, along with routine eye examinations, helps preserve vision and supports long-term management of glaucoma.

Indications

Avatan-T Eye Drop is indicated for:

• Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma.
• Treatment of ocular hypertension.
• Patients requiring combination therapy when monotherapy does not provide adequate intraocular pressure control.
• Long-term management of glaucoma as recommended by an ophthalmologist.

How Avatan-T Eye Drop Works

Avatan-T Eye Drop combines two complementary pressure-lowering agents:

• Travoprost is a prostaglandin F2α analogue that increases the drainage of aqueous humor through the uveoscleral outflow pathway, lowering intraocular pressure.
• Timolol Maleate is a non-selective beta-adrenergic blocker that reduces the production of aqueous humor by the ciliary body.

Together, these actions significantly reduce intraocular pressure, helping prevent optic nerve damage and preserving visual function.

Benefits of Avatan-T Eye Drop

• Effectively lowers elevated intraocular pressure.
• Combines two proven glaucoma medications in one convenient formulation.
• Helps protect the optic nerve from pressure-related damage.
• Reduces the risk of progressive vision loss associated with glaucoma.
• Suitable for patients who require additional pressure control beyond monotherapy.
• Convenient once-daily dosing in many treatment plans, as directed by the physician.
• Supports long-term glaucoma management.

Dosage and Administration

Use Avatan-T Eye Drop exactly as prescribed by your ophthalmologist. The usual recommended dose is one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably at the same time each day.

Wash your hands before application. Avoid touching the dropper tip to the eye or any surface to prevent contamination. After instilling the drop, gently close your eyes and apply light pressure to the inner corner of the eye for 1–2 minutes to reduce systemic absorption.

If you are using other eye medications, wait at least 5 minutes between applications.

Possible Side Effects

Like all medicines, Avatan-T Eye Drop may cause side effects, although not everyone experiences them.

Common side effects include:

• Eye redness
• Mild burning or stinging sensation
• Blurred vision immediately after application
• Dry eyes
• Eye irritation or itching
• Increased eyelash growth
• Gradual darkening of the iris or eyelid skin

Less common but serious side effects may include:

• Slow heart rate (bradycardia)
• Low blood pressure
• Difficulty breathing or bronchospasm
• Worsening heart failure
• Severe allergic reactions
• Eye inflammation or swelling

Seek immediate medical attention if you experience chest pain, shortness of breath, severe dizziness, or sudden vision changes.

Precautions and Warnings

Before using Avatan-T Eye Drop, inform your healthcare provider if you have:

• Asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Heart disease, heart block, or slow heart rate
• Low blood pressure
• Diabetes mellitus
• Thyroid disorders
• Liver or kidney disease
• A history of eye inflammation or recent eye surgery
• Pregnancy or breastfeeding

Contact lenses should be removed before applying the drops and may be reinserted after 15 minutes, unless otherwise advised by your healthcare provider.
