Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Latanoprost is a prostaglandin analog used to lower intraocular pressure in glaucoma‑related conditions.
  • Open‑angle glaucoma: reduces intraocular pressure to slow disease progression.
  • Ocular hypertension: lowers eye pressure to prevent development of glaucoma.
  • Pseudoexfoliative glaucoma: decreases intraocular pressure to manage disease activity.

How It Works

  • Latanoprost is a synthetic analogue of prostaglandin F₂α that binds to FP receptors on the ciliary muscle and scleral tissue. Activation of these receptors remodels the extracellular matrix, enhancing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor. The effect is sustained for 24 hours after a single drop, allowing once‑daily dosing.

Side Effects

Latanoprost may cause ocular and systemic adverse reactions, most of which are mild and reversible.

Common Side Effects

  • Eye redness: mild conjunctival hyperemia.
  • Eye irritation: burning or stinging sensation.
  • Increased eyelash growth: longer, thicker lashes.
  • Iris darkening: gradual increase in brown pigmentation.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe eye inflammation: uveitis or iritis requiring medical attention.
  • Allergic reaction: swelling, itching, or rash around the eye.
  • Corneal edema: swelling of the cornea that may affect vision.

Precautions & Warnings

When using Latanoprost, several precautions should be observed.

  • Monitor intraocular pressure: regular measurements to assess efficacy.
  • Assess for ocular infections: avoid use if active infection is present.
  • Avoid contact lens wear: discontinue lenses for at least 24 hours after instillation.
  • Inform ophthalmologist of other eye medications: potential additive effects.
  • Pregnancy and lactation: safety not established; use only if benefits outweigh risks.
  • Store at room temperature: keep bottle tightly closed, protect from light and moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Latanoprost may interact with other ophthalmic or systemic agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concurrent use with other prostaglandin analog eye drops: may cause excessive pressure reduction.
  • Use with ocular anesthetic drops: increased risk of corneal irritation.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Combination with beta‑blocker eye drops: additive intraocular pressure‑lowering effect.
  • Co‑administration with alpha‑agonist eye drops: may alter efficacy.
  • Systemic carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: potential pharmacodynamic interaction.

Frequently Asked Questions

Latanoprost Cf is a prescription ophthalmic solution that is used to lower intraocular pressure in patients with open‑angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. By reducing eye pressure, it helps to slow disease progression and lower the risk of vision loss.

Latanoprost is a prostaglandin F₂α analogue that binds to FP receptors in the eye. This binding remodels the extracellular matrix of the ciliary body and sclera, increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, which in turn lowers intraocular pressure.

The dosing regimen for Latanoprost Cf is determined by the prescribing ophthalmologist. In clinical practice the medication is typically instilled as one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, usually in the evening, but the exact schedule should follow the prescriber’s instructions.

Safety data for Latanoprost in pregnancy and lactation are limited. The product should only be used when the potential benefit to the mother outweighs any possible risk to the fetus or infant, and this decision must be made by the treating physician.

To place an order, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity of Latanoprost Cf. GNH India works with hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any necessary import documentation.

Latanoprost belongs to the prostaglandin analogue class, which generally provides greater intraocular pressure reduction than beta‑blockers such as timolol. It is administered once daily, has a favorable dosing convenience, and is often used as first‑line therapy, whereas other classes may require multiple daily doses or have different side‑effect profiles.

Latanoprost should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original bottle. Keep the container tightly closed, protect it from light and moisture, and avoid freezing. Do not use the product if the solution appears discolored or contains particles.

The medication is applied as a single drop into the conjunctival sac of the affected eye(s) at the same time each day, preferably in the evening. The dropper tip should not touch the eye or any other surface to maintain sterility.

Serious adverse events, although rare, include severe eye inflammation such as uveitis or iritis, allergic reactions with swelling or rash around the eye, and corneal edema that can impair vision. Any of these symptoms require immediate medical evaluation.

Patients with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any component of the formulation should avoid its use. It is also contraindicated in eyes with active infections, severe inflammation, or in individuals who have had a recent ocular surgery until cleared by their ophthalmologist.
