Abstract
The present invention relates to ophthalmic compositions comprising from 0.005% to 0.02% bimatoprost by weight, less than 100 ppm benzalkonium chloride, and a secondary penetration enhancer that detectably enhances penetration of bimatoprost into a mammalian eye such that elevated intraocular pressure is effectively reduced to an extent statistically comparable to compositions comprising higher amounts of bimatoprost and benzalkonium chloride. Further, the invention also provides a process of preparing such compositions and methods of their use for lowering intraocular pressure and treating glaucoma.
