Description
Introduction
Xalacom 0.005% Eye Drop is a prescription eye medication that combines two powerful agents from different drug classes — Latanoprost (a prostaglandin analog) and Timolol (a beta-blocker). These ingredients work together effectively to offer advanced care for your eyes. Some people may experience minor side effects like eye redness, irritation, a stinging sensation, or slightly blurred vision just after applying. If you’re considering Xalacom, it’s important to know this comes as a sterile solution with easy application; be sure to follow your doctor’s advice, and don’t worry — side effects usually go away on their own. Always use it responsibly and never share your eye drops with others.
