Latanoprost is an eye drop that lowers raised pressure inside the eye in glaucoma and ocular hypertension, sold here as generic Xalatan 0.005% in 2.5ml bottles.
Latanoprost
2.5ml
Xalatan 0.005% is a 2.5ml bottle of latanoprost eye drops for glaucoma and ocular hypertension, dosed once daily in the evening and sold in packs of 1, 3 or 5.
Latanoprost is an eye drop for glaucoma and ocular hypertension (raised pressure inside the eye). Pressure that stays high damages the optic nerve — the nerve that carries what you see to the brain — and sight lost that way does not come back. Glaucoma is a long-term condition, so these drops tend to become part of a daily routine rather than a short course.
Latanoprost is a prostaglandin analogue, and it acts on drainage rather than production: fluid already in the eye leaves more easily through its natural outflow routes. Pressure begins to ease within hours of a drop, and a single daily dose covers about a day.
The dose is one drop in each affected eye, once a day, in the evening. Extra drops do not push the pressure lower and can weaken the effect, so once daily is the schedule to keep.
When a second eye drop is part of your routine, leave at least five minutes between the two, or the later drop can wash the earlier one off the eye. Soft contact lenses come out before the drop and go back in about 15 minutes afterwards. After a missed evening, use the next dose at the usual time; doubling up does nothing useful.
Stinging, burning or itching, dry or gritty-feeling eyes, and sometimes a headache or dizziness are the usual complaints. Most of this settles as the eye gets used to the drops.
Two changes come on slowly, over weeks and months, and are worth knowing about before you start: the coloured part of the treated eye can darken, and the eyelashes on that eye may grow longer, thicker and darker. Neither harms the eye, but they may not reverse once the drops are stopped.
Less common are light sensitivity, blurring or other changes in vision, redness of the eye or eyelid, and swelling of the eyelid. Sudden swelling around the eye, or a change in vision, needs urgent treatment.
Xalatan 0.005% is the latanoprost eye drop listed at PockDose — a 0.005% solution in a 2.5ml dropper bottle, the multi-dose kind you keep using until the bottle is finished rather than single-use vials. Xalatan is one of several brand names for latanoprost and the one this shop carries. It sits with the rest of the eye treatments in Eye Care.

Xalatan is a brand name of latanoprost, which is also sold as Monopost. Here, latanoprost can be bought online as generic Xalatan. These are generics, not the original brand.
Pressure starts to drop in the first hours after a drop, and the effect settles in over the first days. Normal readings on latanoprost mean it is working; they rise again if you stop, because the drops control glaucoma without curing it.
Yes, with a gap between them. Leave at least five minutes after latanoprost before the next drop, so the second one does not rinse the first off the surface of the eye. Put drops in one at a time and keep the dropper tip away from your eye, lids and fingers.
It can, and usually only in the treated eye. The coloured part of the eye may darken, and eyelashes on that side can come through longer, thicker and darker. These changes appear over weeks and months and often stay the same after the drops are stopped.
Xalatan is a brand name for latanoprost, and the 0.005% solution in a 2.5ml bottle is the version sold here. The active ingredient is latanoprost either way; what changes between brands is the name and the packaging, not the ingredient.
