Administration advice:

• If a dose is missed, treatment should continue with the next dose in the evening.
• Twice a day dosing is not well tolerated and not recommended.
• If used concomitantly with other topical ophthalmic drug products to lower intraocular pressure, administer each drug at least 5 minutes apart.

Storage requirements:

• Store at 2C to 8C (36F to 46F) until opened; after opening, may be kept at 2C to 25C (36F to 77F) for up to 6 weeks.
• During shipment, the bottle may be maintained at temperatures up to 40C (104F) for a period not exceeding 14 days.

Patient advice:

• Avoid allowing the tip of the dispensing container to come into contact with the eye, surrounding structures, fingers, or any other surface in order to avoid contamination of the solution by common bacteria known to cause ocular infections; serious damage to the eye and subsequent loss of vision may result from using contaminated solutions.
• If a new ocular condition (e.g., trauma or infection) develops, ocular surgery occurs, or you develop any ocular reactions, particularly conjunctivitis and eyelid reactions, immediately seek your physician's advice concerning continued use.
• Contact lenses should be removed prior to administration and may be reinserted 15 minutes following administration.
• If a dose is missed, treatment should continue with the next dose in the evening.
• If used concomitantly with other topical ophthalmic drug products to lower intraocular pressure, administer each drug at least 5 minutes apart.
