LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03%

Indication: LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% is indicated to treat hypotrichosis of the eyelashes by increasing their growth, including length, thickness, and darkness.

Important Safety Information:

Contraindications: LATISSE® is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity to bimatoprost or any other ingredient in this product.

LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% Important Safety Information (cont’d)

Warnings and Precautions: In patients using LUMIGAN® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% or other prostaglandin analogs for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP), the concomitant use of LATISSE® may interfere with the desired reduction in IOP. Patients using prostaglandin analogs including LUMIGAN® for IOP reduction should only use LATISSE® after consulting with their physician and should be monitored for changes to their intraocular pressure.

Increased iris pigmentation has occurred when the same formulation of bimatoprost ophthalmic solution (LUMIGAN®) was instilled directly onto the eye. Although iridal pigmentation was not reported in clinical studies with LATISSE®, patients should be advised about the potential for increased brown iris pigmentation which is likely to be permanent.

Bimatoprost has been reported to cause pigment changes (darkening) to periorbital pigmented tissues and eyelashes.

LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% Important Safety Information (cont’d)

Warnings and Precautions (cont’d): There is the potential for hair growth to occur in areas where LATISSE® solution comes in repeated contact with skin surfaces.

LATISSE® solution should be used with caution in patients with active intraocular inflammation (eg, uveitis) because the inflammation may be exacerbated.

LATISSE® contains benzalkonium chloride, which may be absorbed by soft contact lenses. Contact lenses should be removed prior to application of solution and may be reinserted 15 minutes following its administration.

LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% Important Safety Information (cont’d)

Adverse Reactions: The most frequently reported adverse events were eye pruritus, conjunctival hyperemia, skin hyperpigmentation, ocular irritation, dry eye symptoms, and erythema of the eyelid. These events occurred in less than 4% of patients.

Dosage and Administration: Apply nightly directly to the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes using the accompanying applicators. Blot any excess solution beyond the eyelid margin. Dispose of the applicator after one use. Repeat for the opposite eyelid margin using a new sterile applicator. Do not apply to the lower eyelash line.

Page 6: The Science of Latisse

Other Safety Information

Macular edema, including cystoid macular edema, has been reported during treatment with bimatoprost ophthalmic solution (LUMIGAN®) for elevated intraocular pressure (IOP). LATISSE® should be used with caution in aphakic patients, in pseudophakic patients with a torn posterior lens capsule, or in patients with known risk factors for macular edema.

There have been reports of bacterial keratitis associated with the use of multiple-dose containers of topical ophthalmic products.

Patients should also be informed of the possibility of disparity between eyes in length, thickness, pigmentation, number of eyelashes or vellus hairs, and/or direction of eyelash growth.

For more information on LATISSE®, please refer to full prescribing information.

LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03%Is a Structural Prostaglandin Analog1

Precise mechanism of action is unknown

LATISSE® solution likely penetrates the hair follicle via the dermis– The physicochemical

properties of LATISSE® solution favor its effective skin absorption to the dermis where hair follicles reside

LATISSE® is believed to exert its effects by stimulating the prostamide receptor2,3

Study Design to Measure Efficacy and Safety

Randomized, multicenter, double-masked, vehicle-controlled trial

Daily treatment for 4 months with 1-month posttreatment follow-up

Primary efficacy measure– Global eyelash assessment (GEA) scale

Secondary efficacy measure– Digital image analysis

Safety measures– Adverse events (AEs)– Ocular—biomicroscopy, intraocular pressure (IOP), ophthalmoscopy

(dilated), and visual acuity– Nonocular—pulse rate, blood pressure (systolic/diastolic)

Please see Important Safety Information on slides 2-6.

Page 11: The Science of Latisse

Primary Efficacy Measure Was a Validated GEA Scale*

To determine GEA score (a measure of eyelash prominence), raters evaluated length, fullness, and color of both sets of upper eyelashes

Responders were defined as persons with at least a 1-grade improvement from baseline

Grade 1 – MinimalInclusion Criteria

Grade 2 – ModerateInclusion Criteria

Grade 3 – Marked Grade 4 – Very Marked

*Scale demonstrated reliability and reproducibility in a study of 68 subjects.

Data on file. Allergan, Inc.

Page 12: The Science of Latisse

Secondary Efficacy Measure Was Digital Image Analysis

Change from baseline to week 16 in:– Length measured in pixels within

the area of interest (AOI)

– Thickness measured in pixels within AOI

– Darkness measured as intensity

Standardized technology and methodology– Equipment and setting

– Alignment, position and lighting

– Image acquisition, calibration

Subjects Instructed on Proper Application of Study Medication

Apply one drop of bimatoprost solution to the single-use-per-eye applicator Brush applicator along upper eyelash margin Repeat for the opposite eyelid margin using a new sterile applicator Dab or blot any excess medication Apply to a clean face at night after all makeup is removed Do not insert contact lenses until ≥15 minutes after application Do not apply to the lower eyelash line Additional applications of bimatoprost solution will not increase the growth of eyelashes

Page 14: The Science of Latisse

LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% Applicators

Proper use of LATISSE® requires the accompanying FDA-approved sterile applicators1

The FDA-approved sterile applicators are designed to help patients properly apply the product

– Volume of bimatoprost when applied to the eyelid margin with the applicator is ≈ 5% of the volume used as an eyedrop2

Do not apply LATISSE® in the eye or to the lower lid1

DO NOT APPLY in your eye or to the lower lid because excess hair growth outside the treatment area may occur. ONLY use the sterile applicators supplied with LATISSE® to apply the product1

Do not allow the tip of the bottle or applicator to contact surrounding structures, fingers, or any other unintended surface in order to avoid contamination by common bacteria known to cause infections.1 There have been reports of bacterial keratitis associated with the use of multiple-dose containers of topical ophthalmic products

LATISSE® contains benzalkonium chloride, which may be absorbed by soft contact lenses. Contact lenses should be removed prior to application of LATISSE® and may be reinserted 15 minutes following its administration1

It is possible for hair growth to occur in other areas of your skin that LATISSE® frequently touches. Any excess solution outside the upper eyelid margin should be blotted with a tissue or other absorbent material to reduce the chance of this from happening. It is also possible for a difference in eyelash length, thickness, fullness, pigmentation, number of eyelash hairs, and/or direction of eyelash1

No patients (0%) experienced iris pigmentation changes (dermal application)

Lack of iris pigmentation change in the LATISSE® trials likely due to upper eyelid margin application2

Effects on Ocular Safety

The reduction in IOP was not cause for clinical concern– Mean IOP:

Baseline: 14.5 mm Hg both groupsWeek 16: 13.7 mm Hg vehicle, 13.3 mm Hg bimatoprost

– Small, statistically significant between-group differences during the study

All less than 1 mm Hg and not clinically relevant

– Average of subjects’ range of IOPs (maximum to minimum IOP) during study (baseline to week 16) was 3.7 mm Hg for vehicle and 3.9 mm Hg for LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03%

Page 25: The Science of Latisse

Pivotal Trial Summary: LATISSE® (bimatoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.03% Significantly Improves Eyelash Length, Thickness, and Darkness

LATISSE® solution significantly improved eyelash prominence, length, thickness, and darkness of eyelashes compared with vehicle– The majority of subjects began to experience significant results by week 8

with full results in 12 to 16 weeks

LATISSE® solution was well tolerated when applied to the upper eyelid margins of healthy adults daily for 4 months
