Xalatan (active ingredient: latanoprost) is a prescription medication indicated for:

  • Glaucoma: Xalatan is used for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Xalatan belongs to a class of drugs known as prostaglandin analogs, which work by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor (fluid inside the eye), thereby lowering intraocular pressure.

Xalatan eye drops are typically used to treat high pressure inside the eye in adults and children. Apply this medication in the affected eye once daily in the evening, or as directed by your doctor. Do not use this medication more frequently than prescribed; using more can decrease effectiveness.

To achieve the best results, use Xalatan Drops regularly according to the prescribed dosing schedule. Do not alter your Xalatan dosage or discontinue it abruptly, as this may worsen your condition. If you are also using other eye medications, make sure to space them out by at least 5 minutes to allow for proper absorption. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before administering Xalatan Drops. Wait at least 15 minutes after using the eye drops before putting your contact lenses back in. Additionally, when using both eye drops and eye ointments, apply the eye drops first.

Here are the general instructions for using Xalatan drops, but follow the specific instructions from your doctor or pharmacist:

  1. Wash your hands before handling the eye drops.
  2. Shake the bottle well before using it.
  3. Tilt your head back and look up.
  4. Pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
  5. Hold the bottle upside down and carefully squeeze one drop into the pocket formed between your lower eyelid and your eye. Do not let the dropper touch your eye or eyelid.
  6. After you put the drops in your eye, press your finger against the inner corner of your eye and hold it there for at least one minute, while gently closing your eyes. This helps to prevent the drops from draining through the tear duct and being absorbed by other parts of your body.
  7. If you are using drops in both eyes, repeat steps 3 through 6 with the other eye.
  8. Replace the cap on the bottle immediately after you use it.

Use Xalatan drops exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has prescribed. Do not use more or less of it, and do not use it more often than prescribed. If you are unsure about how to use the drops, or if you have any questions or concerns about your treatment, speak to your doctor or pharmacist.
