Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Xalatan (Latanoprost) is primarily used to lower elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor, the fluid inside the eye, which helps prevent optic nerve damage. This medication is often prescribed when other treatments are ineffective or unsuitable. It is not a cure but helps manage long-term eye pressure.

Side Effects

  • After application, Xalatan may cause a gradual reduction in eye pressure over several hours. Some users notice improved eye comfort or reduced redness as pressure normalizes. The solution is clear and designed for easy instillation. Effects vary by individual, and consistent use is important for best results.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Store Xalatan in a cool, dry place away from light. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to prevent contamination. Contact lenses should be removed before application; wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting. Discard any remaining solution after 28 days of opening.

Avoid Interactions

  • Xalatan may interact with other eye medications, especially those containing thimerosal. Using multiple eye drops should be spaced by at least 5 minutes. Systemic interactions are rare but possible with blood pressure medications. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications being used. Alcohol and certain foods do not typically interfere with this medication.
