REBEL DISTRIBUTORS CORP
----------
LATANOPROST OPHTHALMIC SOLUTION 0.005% (50 UG/ML)
DESCRIPTION
Latanoprost is a prostaglandin F2α analogue. Its chemical name is
isopropyl-(Z)- 7[(1R,2R,3R,5S)3,5-
dihydroxy-2-[(3R)-3-hydroxy-5-phenylpentyl]cyclopentyl]-5-heptenoate.
Its molecular formula is
C
H O and its chemical structure is:
Latanoprost is a colorless to slightly yellow oil that is very soluble
in acetonitrile and freely soluble in
acetone, ethanol, ethyl acetate, isopropanol, methanol and octanol. It
is practically insoluble in water.
Latanoprost Ophthalmic Solution is supplied as a sterile, isotonic,
buffered aqueous solution of
latanoprost with a pH of approximately 6.7 and an osmolality of
approximately 267 mOsmol/kg. Each
mL of Latanoprost Ophthalmic Solution contains 50 micrograms of
latanoprost. Benzalkonium chloride,
0.02% is added as a preservative. The inactive ingredients are: sodium
chloride, sodium dihydrogen
phosphate monohydrate, disodium hydrogen phosphate anhydrous and water
for injection. One drop
contains approximately 1.5 μg of latanoprost.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Latanoprost is a prostanoid selective FP receptor agonist that is
believed to reduce the intraocular
pressure (IOP) by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor. Studies in
animals and man suggest that the
main mechanism of action is increased uveoscleral outflow. Elevated
IOP represents a major risk factor
for glaucomatous field loss. The higher the level of IOP, the greater
the likelihood of optic nerve
damage and visual field loss.
PHARMACOKINETICS /PHARMACODYNAMICS
Absorption: Latanoprost is absorbed through the cornea where the
isopropyl ester prodrug is
hydrolyzed to the acid form to become biologically active. Studies in
man indicate that the peak
concentration in the aqueous humor is reached about two hours after
topical administration.
Distribution: The distribution volume in humans is 0.16 ± 0.02 L/kg.
The acid of latanoprost can be
measured in aqueous humor dur
