What Is The Difference Between Tafluprost and Latanoprost?
Tafluprost and Latanoprost demonstrate similar efficacy in reducing mean intraocular pressure and diurnal fluctuations in patients with open-angle glaucoma (POAG). Importantly, the two drugs are well-tolerated, with no significant differences in their side effect profiles.
Tafluprost Mechanism of Action
Tafluprost acts on ciliary smooth muscle cells, increasing the production of metalloproteinases, degrading the extracellular matrix between ciliary muscle tissue, widening the space between ciliary muscle bundles, and increasing aqueous humor outflow from the uveosclera, thereby lowering intraocular pressure. Therefore, tafluprost is primarily manufactured as tafluprost ophthalmic solution and tafluprost eye drops for the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
The most common tafluprost eye drops brand on the market is Zioptan, with a specification of tafluprost 0.0015% (0.015mg/mL).
