Bimatoprost efficacy and safety as an initial hypotensive therapy in primary open-angle glaucoma

https://doi.org/10.25700/NJG.2019.01.05

Abstract

Purpose: To study the efficacy and safety of Bimoptic® (bimatoprost 0.03%, "Rompharm Company") as the initial monotherapy in early and advanced stages of primary open-angle glaucoma.

Methods: In 2018, clinics in 23 cities of Russia recruited 178 patients (294 eyes) with newly diagnosed primary open-angle glaucoma with uncompensated IOP (84 men, 94 women, average age - 64.3 years). The mild stage was diagnosed in 72, moderate - in 222 eyes. Tonometry was performed using a Maklakov 10 g tonometer. All patients after standard ophthalmologic examination were prescribed bimatoprost 0.03% 1 time per day. Tonometry was performed before the study, and on the months 1, 2, and 3.

Results: Initial IOP equaled 26.2+3.4 mmHg. On the month 1 IOP decreased by 25.6% to 19.5+2,5 mmHg (p<0.0001). On the month 2 IOP was 18,5 mmHg (29.4% decrease, p<0.0001), on the month 3 - 18.1 mmHg (31% decrease, p<0.0001).

On the month 1, IOP was compensated in 94% of all patients, on month 2 - in 98%, on month 3 - in 99% patients.

Bimatoprost was tolerated well. The most common adverse effect was conjunctival hyperemia (4.5% of all patients).

Conclusion: Bimatoprost allows compensating IOP as monotherapy in patients with early and advanced stages of primary open-angle glaucoma.
