The adverse events of Xalacom™ are similar to those reported earlier for latanoprost and timolol.

Pharmacodynamic effects:
Clinical effects:
Onset of action of Xalacom™ is within one hour, and maximal effect occurs within six to eight hours. IOP reducing effect has been shown to be present up to 24 hours post dosage after multiple treatments.
