Indications & Clinical Uses

Latanoprost Stada belongs to the prostaglandin analog class and is used to manage conditions that involve elevated intra‑ocular pressure.

  • Primary open‑angle glaucoma: reduces intra‑ocular pressure to slow disease progression.
  • Ocular hypertension: lowers eye pressure to prevent conversion to glaucoma.
  • Secondary open‑angle glaucoma: decreases pressure in eyes with secondary forms of the disease.

How It Works

  • Latanoprost is a prostaglandin F2α analogue that binds to FP receptors in the ciliary body, enhancing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor. The increased outflow reduces intra‑ocular pressure, helping to protect the optic nerve from pressure‑related damage.

Side Effects

Latanoprost may cause ocular and systemic reactions.

Common Side Effects

  • Eye redness: mild conjunctival hyperemia.
  • Eyelash growth: increased length and thickness.
  • Iris darkening: gradual increase in brown pigmentation.
  • Eye irritation: transient burning or stinging.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Uveitis: inflammation of the uveal tract.
  • Corneal edema: swelling of the cornea affecting vision.
  • Severe allergic reaction: swelling, itching, or rash requiring medical attention.

Precautions & Warnings

Before using Latanoprost Stada, consider the following precautions.

  • Monitor intra‑ocular pressure: ensure therapeutic response and adjust therapy if needed.
  • Avoid use in active ocular inflammation: may exacerbate conditions such as uveitis.
  • Caution in patients with a history of herpetic eye disease: risk of reactivation.
  • Assess contact lens wearers: discontinue lenses before and after instillation.
  • Store at ambient temperature: keep in original container, protect from moisture and light.

Avoid Interactions

Latanoprost Stada can interact with other ocular or systemic agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concomitant use with other prostaglandin analog eye drops: may increase local side effects.
  • Use with ocular anti‑inflammatory steroids: can reduce prostaglandin efficacy.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely):\n- Topical corticosteroids: may diminish pressure‑lowering effect.

  • Adrenergic agonist eye drops: potential additive ocular irritation.
  • Contact lens solutions: may cause transient discomfort or blurred vision.

Frequently Asked Questions

Latanoprost Stada is a prescription eye‑drop formulation containing the prostaglandin analogue latanoprost. It is used to lower intra‑ocular pressure in adults with primary open‑angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension, helping to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve visual function.

Latanoprost mimics prostaglandin F2α and binds to FP receptors in the eye’s ciliary body. This binding enhances the uveoscleral outflow pathway, allowing aqueous humor to drain more efficiently and thereby reducing intra‑ocular pressure.

The dosing regimen for Latanoprost Stada is determined by the prescribing clinician. Typically, one drop is instilled into the affected eye(s) once daily, often in the evening, but exact instructions should follow the prescriber’s order.

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

To request Latanoprost Stada, submit an enquiry on the product page at gnhindia.com specifying the required quantity. 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 offers once‑daily dosing and a favorable efficacy profile compared with beta‑blockers such as timolol. While both lower intra‑ocular pressure, prostaglandin analogues often achieve greater pressure reduction with fewer systemic side effects.

Latanoprost Stada should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in its original container. Protect the bottle from moisture and direct sunlight. Do not freeze the product, and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use.

Instill one drop of Latanoprost Stada into the conjunctival sac of the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening. Tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid to create a pocket, and avoid touching the tip of the bottle to the eye or any surface.

Serious adverse reactions, although rare, include uveitis, corneal edema, severe allergic responses, and paradoxical elevation of intra‑ocular pressure. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience intense eye pain, vision changes, or signs of infection.

Latanoprost Stada is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any excipients, and in patients with active ocular inflammation such as uveitis. Caution is also advised for those with a history of severe allergic eye reactions.
