Careprost Eye Drops are a
member of the prostamide drug class. It is available as an eye drop, which is
used to lower intraocular hypertension (higher pressure inside the eye) or
open-angle glaucoma patients' intraocular pressure. The eye is continuously
forming and losing fluid. The pressure inside the eye rises when this fluid
does not appropriately drain out of it. Bimatoprost functions by enhancing the
amount of fluid that exits the eye. Four hours after being injected into the
eye, it begins to act.
