Is Latanoprost Safe For Eyes?
Is latanoprost made in India for Acorn Inc. safe??? For the last 15 years I used Xalatan or generic Latanoprost made in US(Bausch and Lomb) to treat my glaucoma.. For the first time my pharmacy at Costco filled my prescription with the eye drops made in India . I live in New Jersey. Andrew.

Hello and welcome
i appreciate your concern
latanoprost is safe for glucaoma it doesn't any difference where it is manufactured
it should be assessed by its concentration which should be .005%.
use it once daily one drop in affected eye in the evening
don't use with contact lenses remove lenses at least 15 minutes prior to administration
Hope this answers your question
wishing you good health
