Blurred vision, burning and stinging, foreign body sensations, dry eye, lid crusting or discomfort can occur. Report these problems if they persist.

Very unlikely but report: rapid vision changes, flu symptoms, chest pain, rash, headaches.
How To Use Xalatan
XALATAN: One drop is placed in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening. Avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye. This will help protect the bottle from becoming contaminated with bacteria. Pull the lower lid out forming a pouch and place one drop in the eye. Apply pressure to the inside corner of the eye for 1 to 2 minutes. This will keep the medicine in the eye area longer. If more than one eye medication is being used, wait 5 minutes before using the next eye drop. The preservative in this product may be absorbed by contact lenses. Contact lenses should be removed before using XALATAN. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes after use of latanoprost.
Xalatan Uses
XALATAN is used along with other medicines to treat glaucoma and other problems related to high pressure within the eye.
Xalatan Precautions
Tell your doctor your medical history, especially of: kidney or liver diseases, any allergies, high blood pressure, swollen or itching eyes, contact lens use. XALATAN can slowly (years) change the color of the iris (become browned). If only one eye is being treated, only one eye might darken. The consequences of this are unknown. Consult your eye doctor. If you develop an eye infection, trauma or have eye surgery, check with your doctor about the continued use of the same dropper bottle. XALATAN should be used only when clearly needed during pregnancy. Discuss the risks and benefits with your doctor. It is unknown if XALATAN is excreted into breast milk. Caution is advised if breast-feeding. Consult your doctor.
Xalatan Drug Interactions
Tell your doctor of all nonprescription or prescription medication you may use, especially of eye drops containing thimerosal preservative (consult your pharmacist). If such drops are used, wait 5 minutes after using latanoprost. Do not start or stop any medicine without doctor or pharmacist approval.
