Indications & Clinical Uses

  • Xalatan is primarily used to lower elevated intraocular pressure, which can help prevent damage to the optic nerve in conditions like open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. It works by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor from the eye, reducing pressure over time. People often ask, what is Xalatan used for, and it is prescribed to manage chronic eye pressure issues to preserve long-term vision.

Side Effects

  • After applying Xalatan, users may notice gradual improvement in eye comfort as pressure decreases. Some experience mild eye redness or a slight darkening of the iris or eyelashes over time. These changes are generally cosmetic and not harmful. Blurred vision or temporary stinging may occur shortly after application but typically resolves quickly.

Precautions & Warnings

  • Store Xalatan in a cool, dry place away from light and children. Keep the container tightly closed when not in use. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting. Discard any unused solution after opening the bottle as directed.

Avoid Interactions

  • Xalatan is generally well-tolerated with few known interactions. However, concurrent use of other eye drops should be spaced by at least 5 minutes to avoid dilution or reduced effectiveness. While rare, combining with high-dose aspirin may slightly reduce Xalatan’s pressure-lowering effect. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications and supplements you use.
