- Dosage
- **DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION**
The recommended dose is one drop of GANFORT® PF in the affected eye(s) once daily, administered either in the morning or in the evening. It should be administered at the same time each day.
Existing literature data for GANFORT® suggest that evening dosing may be more effective in IOP lowering than morning dosing. However, consideration should be given to the likelihood of compliance when considering either morning or evening dosing.
In order to minimise systemic absorption of GANFORT® PF eye drops, apply pressure to the tear duct for at least 2 minutes immediately following administration of the drug **(See Precautions** – _please refer to the Product Insert/Patient Information Leaflet published on HSA for the full drug information_ **)**.
If more than one topical ophthalmic medicinal product is to be used, each one should be instilled at least 5 minutes apart.
The unit dose container is for single use only; one container is sufficient to treat both eyes. Any unused solution should be discarded immediately after use. If one dose is missed, treatment should continue with the next dose as planned. The dose should not exceed one drop in the affected eye(s) daily.
