Avetaprost (Lataprost) 0.005% Eye Drop 2.5ml

Avetaprost, also known as Lataprost, is a prostaglandin analogue eye drop, with latanoprost 0.005% as its active ingredient. Some users notice mild eye redness, a stinging or burning sensation upon instillation, or a gradual darkening of the iris colour with long-term use. It's a once-daily formulation designed for precise, controlled application directly onto the eye's surface. Because eye drops can be absorbed systemically in small amounts, it's helpful to let your pharmacist know about any other eye treatments or systemic conditions you have. This eye drop is packaged in a light-protective bottle to help preserve its stability throughout its shelf life.

The typical dose is one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily, usually in the evening, or as directed by your ophthalmologist. Avoid instilling more than the prescribed amount, as this does not improve effectiveness.

• Eye redness (conjunctival hyperaemia)
• Stinging or burning sensation upon instillation
• Blurred vision (temporary)
• Gradual darkening of the iris colour
• Increased eyelash growth or thickness
• Eye itching
• Dry eye sensation
• Eyelid skin darkening (periorbital pigmentation)

Store unopened bottles in the refrigerator between 2°C to 8°C, away from light. Once opened, the bottle can usually be kept at room temperature below 25°C for a limited period — check the patient information leaflet for specifics.

• Always wash your hands before applying eye drops
• Avoid letting the dropper tip touch your eye, eyelashes, or any surface
• If using more than one type of eye drop, wait at least 5 minutes between products
• Keep the bottle refrigerated before opening, and note your discard date once opened
• Do not wear contact lenses immediately after instilling the drop unless advised otherwise
• Dispose of the bottle after the recommended in-use period, even if drops remain

Tilt your head back, gently pull down the lower eyelid, and instil one drop into the pocket formed, avoiding contact between the dropper tip and the eye or eyelid. Close your eyes gently for a minute or two afterward and apply light pressure near the inner corner of the eye to minimise systemic absorption.

Unopened bottles are generally stable for around 2 to 3 years from the manufacturing date. Once opened, the bottle is typically only usable for about 4 weeks, so check the discard date you note on opening.

Latanoprost 0.005% (50 micrograms/mL).

This eye drop should not be used by individuals with known hypersensitivity to latanoprost or any other component of the formulation. Caution is advised in patients with active eye inflammation, a history of herpetic eye infection, or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding, and a doctor should always be consulted first.

Using other eye drops containing thimerosal-based preservatives at the same time may cause precipitation and reduce effectiveness, so a gap of at least 5 minutes between different eye drop products is generally recommended. There are no known significant food interactions with this eye drop.
