What is Latanoprost used for?
Xalatan (Latanoprost) is commonly used to treat elevated intraocular pressure, which can lead to optic nerve damage if left unmanaged. It is prescribed for conditions like open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. The medication works by increasing the outflow of eye fluid, helping to lower pressure gradually over time.
What are the side effects of Latanoprost?
Users may notice gradual changes in eye color, including darkening of the iris or eyelid skin, due to increased pigmentation. Some experience mild eye redness, itching, or a sensation of foreign particles. These effects are generally temporary and vary by individual.

Store Xalatan (Latanoprost) in a cool, dry place away from direct light. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination.
