Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Latanoprost is a prostaglandin analog used to lower intra‑ocular pressure in glaucoma‑related conditions.
  • Open-angle glaucoma: reduces intraocular pressure and helps preserve visual field.
  • Ocular hypertension: lowers elevated eye pressure to prevent progression to glaucoma.
  • Post‑surgical ocular pressure elevation: helps control pressure after eye surgery.

How It Works

  • Latanoprost binds to prostaglandin F (FP) receptors in the ciliary muscle, promoting remodeling of the extracellular matrix and increasing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor. This enhanced drainage lowers intraocular pressure, thereby reducing the risk of optic nerve damage associated with glaucoma.

Side Effects

Latanoprost may cause ocular and systemic reactions.

Common Side Effects

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

Serious or Rare Side Effects

  • Severe allergic reaction with swelling or rash
  • Persistent eye pain with vision loss
  • Corneal ulceration or keratitis
  • Marked hypotony (very low intraocular pressure)
  • Acute uveitis or intraocular inflammation

Precautions & Warnings

  • Before using Latanoprost, consider the following safety measures.
  • Pregnancy: Category C – use only if potential benefit justifies the risk.
  • Breastfeeding: Caution; limited data on excretion in milk.
  • Active ocular infection: Avoid until infection resolved.
  • Uveitis: Use with caution; monitor inflammation.
  • Intraocular pressure monitoring: Check pressure after initiation and periodically.
  • Store at room temperature: keep in original container, protect from light and moisture.

Avoid Interactions

Latanoprost may interact with other ophthalmic or systemic agents.

Major Interactions (Avoid)

  • Concomitant use with other prostaglandin analogs – may cause excessive pressure reduction.
  • Combination with carbonic anhydrase inhibitors – additive intraocular pressure lowering.
  • Co‑administration with ophthalmic adrenergic agonists – may diminish therapeutic effect.

Moderate Interactions (Monitor Closely)

  • Use with non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory eye drops – may increase ocular irritation.
  • Systemic beta‑blockers – potential additive hypotensive effect.
  • Anticholinergic eye drops – possible impact on tear film stability.
  • Contact lens solutions containing preservatives – may heighten irritation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Latanoprost Teva Sante is an ophthalmic solution indicated for the reduction of intraocular pressure in patients with open‑angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. By lowering pressure, it helps prevent optic nerve damage and preserve visual function.

Latanoprost is a prostaglandin F‑type receptor agonist. It remodels the extracellular matrix in the ciliary body, enhancing uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, which leads to a decrease in intraocular pressure.

The dosing regimen for Latanoprost Teva Sante 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 prescriber’s instructions.

Latanoprost is classified as Pregnancy Category C, indicating that it should be used only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. Limited data are available for breastfeeding; therefore, caution is advised and a healthcare professional should be consulted.

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 provides greater intraocular pressure reduction with once‑daily dosing compared with beta‑blockers or carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. It is often preferred for its efficacy and convenient dosing schedule, though individual response may vary.

Latanoprost eye drops should be stored at room temperature, below 25 °C, in the original container. Protect the product from light and moisture, and keep the cap tightly closed when not in use.

The medication is applied as an ocular solution. The patient should wash their hands, tilt the head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place a single drop into the conjunctival sac of the prescribed eye(s). Avoid touching the tip of the bottle to the eye or any surface.

Serious adverse events, though rare, include severe allergic reactions, corneal ulceration, marked hypotony (very low intraocular pressure), and acute uveitis. Patients should seek immediate medical attention if they experience sudden eye pain, vision loss, or signs of infection.

Latanoprost is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any component of the formulation. It should also be avoided in individuals with active ocular infections or inflammation until these conditions are resolved.
