Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Latanoprost is a prostaglandin analog used in ocular hypotensive therapy to manage elevated intra‑ocular pressure.
  • Primary open‑angle glaucoma: lowers intra‑ocular pressure to slow disease progression.
  • Ocular hypertension: reduces pressure to prevent conversion to glaucoma.
  • Secondary open‑angle glaucoma: assists in intra‑ocular pressure reduction when other therapies are insufficient.

How It Works

  • Latanoprost binds to prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the ciliary muscle, activating a cascade that remodels the extracellular matrix and increases uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, thereby lowering intra‑ocular pressure.

Side Effects

Latanoprost may cause ocular and systemic reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Eye redness or hyperemia.
  • Eye irritation or foreign‑body sensation.
  • Increased eyelash growth.
  • Darkening of the iris.
  • Blurred vision.
  • Mild eye pain.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reaction (e.g., angio‑edema).
  • Uveitis or intra‑ocular inflammation.
  • Corneal edema or clouding.
  • Persistent eye inflammation.
  • Vision loss.
  • Sudden increase in intra‑ocular pressure.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Before initiating therapy, consider the following precautions.
  • Assess baseline intra‑ocular pressure: ensure appropriate monitoring.
  • Monitor iris color change: inform patients of possible permanent darkening.
  • Avoid use in patients with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or excipients.
  • Caution in active ocular infection: defer treatment until resolved.
  • Use with care in patients with a history of herpetic eye disease.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in the original container, protect from light and moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Latanoprost may interact with other ocular or systemic agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Other prostaglandin analog eye drops: concurrent use may cause excessive IOP reduction.
  • Systemic carbonic anhydrase inhibitors: may potentiate IOP‑lowering effect.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Beta‑blocker eye drops: monitor intra‑ocular pressure for additive effect.
  • Alpha‑agonist eye drops: observe for excessive pressure lowering.
  • Topical corticosteroids: may diminish latanoprost efficacy and increase IOP.

Frequently Asked Questions

Latanoprost Rivopharm is prescribed to lower intra‑ocular pressure in adults with primary open‑angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, helping to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve vision.

Latanoprost activates prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the eye, promoting remodeling of the extracellular matrix and increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, which lowers intra‑ocular pressure.

The prescribed dose is determined by the treating ophthalmologist. Typically, one drop is instilled in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening, but exact dosing must follow the prescriber’s instructions.

Safety data for latanoprost in pregnancy and lactation are limited. It should be used only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus or infant, and the prescriber should evaluate each case individually.

Enquiries can be submitted on the product page at gnhindia.com, specifying the required quantity. GNH India supplies hospitals, pharmacies and procurement teams worldwide, verifies trade or institutional credentials, and then provides pricing, availability, shipping details and any required import documentation.

Latanoprost belongs to the prostaglandin analog class, which generally provides greater IOP reduction with once‑daily dosing compared with beta‑blockers or carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. It is often preferred as first‑line therapy for its efficacy and convenient dosing schedule.

Store at room temperature: keep the bottle in its original packaging, protect it from light and moisture, and avoid freezing. Do not refrigerate the product.

Latanoprost Rivopharm is supplied as sterile eye‑drop solution. The patient should wash hands, tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and instill one drop into the prescribed eye(s) as directed by the ophthalmologist.

Serious risks include severe allergic reactions, uveitis, corneal edema, and a sudden increase in intra‑ocular pressure. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience intense eye pain, vision loss, or signs of infection.

Patients with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any component of the formulation, active ocular infections, or a history of herpetic eye disease should avoid using this medication unless directed otherwise by their eye‑care professional.
