Remove contact lenses before administration and reinsert after 15 minutes. This drug may cause transient blurring of vision, if affected, do not drive or operate machinery.
Chỉ số theo dõi
Monitor intraocular pressure, changes in iris colour and eyelash; systemic effects of β blockade; signs and symptoms of heart failure.
Quá liều
Symptoms: Latanoprost: Ocular irritation and conjunctival hyperaemia.
Timolol (systemic): Bradycardia, hypotension, bronchospasm and cardiac arrest.
Management: Symptomatic and supportive treatment.
Tương tác
May have potentiated effects on intraocular pressure or systemic β-blockade with oral or other topical β-adrenergic blockers.
Latanoprost: Paradoxical increase in intraocular pressure with another prostaglandin analogues.
Timolol: May have additive effects resulting in hypotension and/or notable bradycardia with oral Ca channel blockers, guanethidine, antiarrhythmics (e.g. amiodarone), digitalis glycosides, parasympathomimetics, narcotics and MAOIs. Potentiated systemic β blockade (e.g. decreased heart rate, depression) with CYP2D6 inhibitors (e.g. quinidine, fluoxetine, paroxetine). May result in mydriasis with epinephrine. May potentiate the hypertensive reaction to sudden withdrawal of clonidine. May increase the hypoglycaemic effect of anti-diabetic agents.
Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Latanoprost, a prostaglandin F2α analogue, is a selective prostanoid FP receptor agonist which reduces IOP by primarily increasing the uveoscleral outflow of the aqueous humour.
Timolol, a non-selective adrenergic receptor antagonist, reduces IOP by decreasing the production of aqueous humour in the ciliary epithelium. Onset: Within 1 hour.
Latanoprost: Intraocular pressure reduction: 3-4 hours.
Timolol: Intraocular pressure reduction: 30 minutes. Duration: Up to 24 hours.
Timolol: 24 hours. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Latanoprost: Well-absorbed through the cornea. Bioavailability: 45% (acid of latanoprost). Time to reach maximum concentration in the aqueous humour: 2 hours.
Timolol: Partly absorbed systemically. Time to reach maximum concentration in the aqueous humour: Approx 1 hour. Time to peak plasma concentration: 10-20 minutes. Distribution: Latanoprost: Volume of distribution: Approx 0.16 L/kg (acid of latanoprost). Plasma protein binding: 87%.
Timolol: Enters breast milk. Metabolism: Latanoprost: Primarily metabolised in the liver via fatty acid beta-oxidation.
Timolol: Extensively metabolised in the liver. Excretion: Latanoprost: Mainly via urine (as metabolites). Elimination half-life: 17 minutes (acid of latanoprost).
Timolol: Via urine (as metabolites with some unchanged drug). Elimination half-life: Approx 6 hours.
