Indications & Clinical Uses

Latanoprost is a prostaglandin analog used to lower intra‑ocular pressure in glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

  • Primary open-angle glaucoma: reduces intra‑ocular pressure and helps prevent optic nerve damage.
  • Ocular hypertension: lowers eye pressure to reduce the risk of progression to glaucoma.
  • Secondary open-angle glaucoma: provides pressure reduction similar to primary disease.
  • Pseudoexfoliative glaucoma: achieves intra‑ocular pressure control in this subtype.
  • Post‑laser trabeculoplasty management: maintains lowered pressure after laser procedures.

How It Works

  • Latanoprost binds to prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the ciliary body, activating a cascade that remodels the extracellular matrix and increases uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor. The enhanced outflow lowers intra‑ocular pressure, addressing the primary pathogenic factor in open‑angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension.

Side Effects

Common Side Effects

  • Eye redness: mild conjunctival hyperemia.
  • Eye irritation or burning sensation upon instillation.
  • Increased eyelash growth (hypertrichosis).
  • Darkening of the iris (gradual pigmentation change).
  • Blurred vision: transient visual disturbance.
  • Foreign body sensation: feeling of grit in the eye.

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Ocular inflammation (uveitis or iritis).
  • Macular edema: swelling of the central retina.
  • Severe allergic reaction: swelling, itching, or rash.
  • Persistent eye pain or discomfort.
  • Sudden loss of vision.
  • Corneal ulceration or infection.

Precautions & Warnings

Before initiating therapy, evaluate ocular health and monitor intra‑ocular pressure regularly.

  • Assess corneal health: avoid use in patients with active corneal disease.
  • Screen for ocular infections: do not use during active bacterial or viral eye infections.
  • Caution in patients with a history of uveitis: monitor for inflammation.
  • Advise patients to avoid contact lens wear for at least 15 minutes after instillation.
  • Store at room temperature below 25°C: keep in the original container, protect from moisture and direct sunlight.

Avoid Interactions

Latanoprost may interact with other ocular or systemic agents that affect intra‑ocular pressure or ocular surface.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concurrent use of other prostaglandin analog eye drops: additive iris pigmentation and eyelash changes.
  • Combination with ocular corticosteroids: increased risk of cataract formation.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Beta‑blocker eye drops: may enhance systemic absorption leading to cardiovascular effects.
  • Carbonic anhydrase inhibitor eye drops: additive pressure‑lowering effect, monitor for hypotony.
  • Systemic non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs): may reduce prostaglandin efficacy.
  • Anticholinergic agents: potential for reduced tear production, monitor ocular surface comfort.

Frequently Asked Questions

Latanoprost Stulln is an ophthalmic solution containing the prostaglandin analog latanoprost. It is prescribed to lower intra‑ocular pressure in patients with primary open‑angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension, helping to prevent optic nerve damage and preserve visual function.

Latanoprost binds to prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the eye’s ciliary body, triggering remodeling of the extracellular matrix. This process increases the uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, thereby reducing intra‑ocular pressure, which is the primary therapeutic goal in glaucoma management.

The dosing regimen for Latanoprost Stulln is determined by the prescribing ophthalmologist. Typically, one drop is instilled into the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening, but the exact dose and timing should follow the individual prescriber’s instructions.

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 the decision should be made by the treating physician in consultation with the patient.

To place an order, 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 analog class, which generally offers once‑daily dosing and strong intra‑ocular pressure reduction. Compared with beta‑blocker or carbonic anhydrase inhibitor drops, latanoprost often provides greater pressure‑lowering efficacy with a convenient dosing schedule, though individual response may vary.

Latanoprost Stulln should be stored at room temperature below 25 °C, protected from moisture and direct sunlight. Keep the vial in its original packaging until use, and discard any solution that appears discolored or contaminated.

The medication is applied as a single drop into the conjunctival sac of the affected eye(s) once daily, preferably in the evening. Patients should wash their hands before instillation, avoid touching the tip of the bottle to the eye or any surface, and wait a few minutes before applying other eye medications.

Serious but rare risks include ocular inflammation such as uveitis, macular edema, severe allergic reactions, and sudden loss of vision. Any sudden eye pain, visual changes, or signs of infection should prompt immediate medical evaluation.

Patients with active ocular infections, severe corneal disease, known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any component of the formulation, and those who have had a recent intra‑ocular surgery without physician approval should avoid using Latanoprost Stulln.
