Xalatan 0.005% Eye Drops
Xalatan is a medication used to treat elevated intraocular pressure and is considered effective in lowering eye pressure. It contains the active ingredient Latanoprost, which works by increasing the outflow of fluid from the eye, thereby helping to reduce pressure.

Xalatan is known for its rapid effectiveness in lowering eye pressure, making it an ideal choice for patients suffering from elevated intraocular pressure. It is also easy to use, as it is applied as a single drop in the affected eye daily.
Side Effects:
Some side effects may include eye redness, itching, or a burning sensation after use. If these symptoms persist or worsen, consult a physician.
Warnings:
Xalatan should be used under medical supervision, especially for patients with certain health conditions such as asthma or heart problems.
