Important About Lumigan Drops
Chemical Name: Bimatoprost (By-Matoh-prohst)
Lumigan eye drops are used for the treatment of high eye pressure, also called intraocular pressure (IOP), in people with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Glaucoma is caused by high pressure in your eye and can lead to pain from pressure in your eye and then can eventually harm your vision. This medicine can help you keep your sight by reducing the pressure in your eye and stopping eye pain. Lumigan can also be used to improve fullness, length, and colour of the eyelashes in people with a condition called hypotrichosis, a lack of eyelash growth.
You can purchase this bimatoprost ophthalmic solution online from Canada Pharmacy.

Overall 4.00 Quality 5.00 Value for money 4.00 Reviewer: Barbara Freed J. Location: Camden Written on: February 20, 2015 | Price increase The cost of this medication jumped from $49/7.5 ml bottle in 2014 to $62/ 7.5 ml bottle in 2015.

What is a Generic Drug?
A generic drug is a copy of the brand-name drug with the same dosage, safety, strength, quality, consumption method, performance, and intended use. Before generics become available on the market, the generic company must prove it has the same active ingredients as the brand-name drug and works in the same way and in the same amount of time in the body.
The only differences between generics and their brand-name counterparts is that generics are less expensive and may look slightly different (eg. different shape or color), as trademarks laws prevent a generic from looking exactly like the brand-name drug.
Generics are less expensive because generic manufacturers don't have to invest large sums of money to develop a drug. When the brand-name patent expires, generic companies can manufacture a copy of the brand-name and sell it at a substantial discount.
