Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Roaoxia Work?
- Mimicking prostaglandins: Bimatoprost is a synthetic analog of prostaglandin F2α. It lowers intraocular pressure by increasing the uveoscleral and trabecular outflow of aqueous humor, thereby reducing the fluid within the eye.
- Enhancing eyelash growth: When applied to the eyelashes, Roaoxia extends the growth phase of the hair cycle, resulting in longer, thicker, and darker eyelashes.
Common Dosages
- Ophthalmic solution: Usually provided as a 0.03% solution.
Typical Dosing
- For glaucoma or ocular hypertension: The recommended dose is one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening.
- For eyelash enhancement: Apply one drop to the base of the upper eyelashes using the provided applicator once daily.
Typical Dosing
FDA Approved Indications
- Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
- Enhancement of eyelash growth in individuals with hypotrichosis (inadequate or not enough eyelashes).
Who Shouldn't Take Roaoxia?
- Known hypersensitivity to bimatoprost or any components of the formulation.
- Active intraocular infection or ocular inflammation.
Advice From The Pharmacist
- Instruct patients on the correct technique for applying Roaoxia to minimize contamination and ensure proper dosing.
- Advise patients to remove contact lenses before application and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.
- Discuss potential side effects, including changes in eye color, eyelash growth in unintended areas, and irritation upon application, and encourage patients to report any severe or concerning symptoms.
