Reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. One of several first-line agents to reduce elevated IOP.

Safety and efficacy not established for the treatment of angle-closure, inflammatory, or neovascular glaucoma.

Appears to be more effective than unoprostone, as effective as travoprost, and slightly less effective than bimatoprost in reducing IOP in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

May be more effective or at least as effective as twice daily administration of timolol 0.5% in reducing IOP in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Appears to be more effective than thrice-daily administration of dorzolamide 2%.

May be used in conjunction with a topical β-adrenergic blocking agent (e.g., betaxolol, carteolol, levobunolol, metipranolol, timolol), topical dipivefrin, topical epinephrine, an oral carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (e.g., acetazolamide), or a topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (e.g., dorzolamide).

Tolerance does not occur, and reduction in mean IOP is maintained for up to at least 24 months of therapy after initial stabilization.
