The recommended dose of Lumigan RC (Bimatoprost) is one drop in the affected eye(s) in the evening. Lumigan RC (Bimatoprost) should not be used more than once a day, since using this medication more often than once a day may cause it to be less effective in lowering the pressure in the eye.
Many things can affect the dose of a medication that a person needs, such as body weight, other medical conditions, and other medications. If your doctor has recommended a dose different from the ones listed here, do not change the way that you are using the medication without consulting your doctor.
It is important that Lumigan RC (Bimatoprost) be used exactly as prescribed by your doctor.
To use the eye drops:
Do not allow the dropper tip of the bottle to touch the eye or other surrounding structures. This can contaminate the tip with common bacteria known to cause Eye Infections. Serious damage to the eye may result if you use eye drop solutions that have become contaminated.
If you are using other eye drops, apply them at least 5 minutes apart.
If you wear contact lenses, remove them before instilling Lumigan RC (Bimatoprost) into your eye. You may put your contact lenses back in 15 minutes after using the medication.
If you miss a dose, instill it as soon as possible and continue with your regular schedule. If it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and continue with your regular dosing schedule. Do not instill a double dose to make up for a missed one. If you are not sure what to do after missing a dose, contact your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Store Lumigan RC (Bimatoprost) at room temperature and keep it out of the reach of children. Safely discard any medication remaining in the dropper bottle 30 days after first opening the bottle.
Do not dispose of medications in wastewater (e.g. down the sink or in the toilet) or in household garbage. Ask your pharmacist how to dispose of medications that are no longer needed or have expired.
