Common Use

The active ingredient in Bimat eye drops is Bimatoprost, a prostaglandin analogue. Bimatoprost helps promote the growth, thickening, and darkening of eyelashes by stimulating prostaglandin in the eyelash follicles. Visible changes can typically be seen after 12 to 16 weeks of daily use. It is important not to stop the treatment abruptly, as this may cause your eyelashes to return to their original state.

Dosage and Direction

To apply Bimat eye drops to your eyelashes, you will need applicators, which come in boxes of 30 pieces (for one month's usage). Ensure your hands are clean and that you have no makeup on. Remove contact lenses before application. Squeeze one drop of the solution onto the brush and gently spread it over your upper eyelid's eyelashes. Do not apply the drops to your lower eyelid. For best results, avoid washing your eyes for 15 minutes after application and let the lashes dry. The brush is designed to reach the roots of your lashes and can be used for one month. Do not expect immediate results, as this is a gradual process. Avoid using the drops more than once daily, as it will not enhance hair growth further.

Precautions

Consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting Bimat eye drops. Inform your healthcare provider if you have other medical conditions, are pregnant, or have allergies to any ingredients in the product. If the drops accidentally enter your eye, do not panic or rinse excessively, as they are harmless. Always close the bottle cap tightly after use. Avoid touching the tip of the lid to prevent contamination, which could lead to eye infections.

Contraindications

Do not use Bimat eye drops if you are allergic to the active ingredient, Bimatoprost. Symptoms of an allergic reaction may include chest pain, difficulty breathing, eye soreness, or redness. After applying the drops, avoid immediate daily activities and wait at least 15 minutes for any temporary vision impairment to subside.
