Taptiqom sine
Taptiqom sine eye drops contain two medicines that work together to lower high pressure in your eye, which can happen with conditions like glaucoma.
How to Use
Dosage
One drop in the affected eye(s) once daily.
Method
Wash your hands. Pull down your lower eyelid and look up. Gently squeeze the bottle to put one drop between your lower eyelid and eye. Close your eye and press on the inner corner for about two minutes. Wipe off any extra liquid. Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye or any surface.
Do not use more than one drop per day in each affected eye, as using more can make the medicine less effective.
