Do not use LUMIGAN 0.1 mg/ml:

• if you are allergic to bimatoprost or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
• if you have had to stop using eye drops in the past because of a side effect of the preservative benzalkonium chloride.

Warnings and precautions:

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist before you use LUMIGAN 0.1 mg/ml

Talk to your doctor, if:

• You have any breathing problems
• You have liver or kidney problems
• You have had a cataract surgery in the past
• You have dry eye
• You have or have had any problems with your cornea (front transparent part of the eye)
• You wear contact lenses (see “LUMIGAN 0.1 mg/ml contains benzalkonium chloride”)
• You have or have had low blood pressure or low heart rate
• You have had a viral infection or inflammation of the eye

During treatment, LUMIGAN may cause a loss of fat around the eye, which may cause your eyelid crease to deepen, your eye to appear sunken (enophthalmos), your upper eyelid to droop (ptosis), the skin around your eye to tighten (involution of dermatochalasis) and the lower white part of your eye to become more visible (inferior scleral show). The changes are typically mild, but if pronounced, they can affect your field of vision. The changes may disappear if you stop taking LUMIGAN. LUMIGAN may also cause your eyelashes to darken and grow, and cause the skin around the eyelid to darken too. The colour of your iris may also go darker. These changes may be permanent. The changes may be more noticeable if you are only treating one eye.

Children and adolescents

LUMIGAN has not been tested in children under the age of 18 and therefore should not be used by patients under 18 years.

Other medicines and LUMIGAN

Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken, or might take any other medicines.

Pregnancy and breast-feeding

If you are pregnant or breast feeding, think you might be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.

LUMIGAN may get into breast milk so you should not breast-feed while you are taking LUMIGAN.

Driving and using machines

Your sight may become blurred for a short time just after using LUMIGAN. You should not drive or use machines until your sight is clear again.

LUMIGAN 0.1 mg/ml contains benzalkonium chloride

This medicine contains 0.6 mg benzalkonium chloride in each 3 ml of solution which is equivalent to 0.2 mg/ml.

Do not use the drops when you are wearing your lenses. A preservative in LUMIGAN, called benzalkonium chloride may be absorbed by soft contact lenses and may change the colour of the contact lenses. You should remove contact lenses before using this medicine and wait 15 minutes after using the drops before you put your lenses back in. Benzalkonium chloride may also cause eye irritation, especially if you have dry eyes or disorders of the cornea (the clear layer at the front of the eye). If you feel abnormal eye sensation, stinging or pain in the eye after using this medicine, talk to your doctor.
