Contraindications
None.
Warnings and Precautions
Increased pigmentation of the iris, periorbital tissue (eyelid), and eyelashes can occur. Iris pigmentation likely to be permanent.
Gradual change to eyelashes may include increased length, thickness, number, and misdirected growth of lashes. Usually reversible upon discontinuation of treatment.
Use with caution in patients with a history of intraocular inflammation (iritis/uveitis). Should generally not be used in patients with active intraocular inflammation.
Macular edema, including cystoid macular edema, has been reported with latanoprost. Use with caution in aphakic patients, pseudophakic patients with a torn posterior lens capsule, or patients with known risk factors for macular edema.
Use with caution in patients with a history of herpetic keratitis. Avoid use in cases of active herpes simplex keratitis.
Bacterial keratitis has been reported with multiple-dose containers of topical ophthalmic products inadvertently contaminated by patients.
Remove contact lenses prior to administration and reinsert 15 minutes after administration.
Adverse reactions
The most common ocular adverse reactions were conjunctival hyperemia (59%), with 5% of patients discontinuing therapy for this reason, instillation site pain (20%), corneal verticillata (15%), and conjunctival hemorrhage (11%). Eye pruritus, visual acuity reduced, increased lacrimation, instillation site discomfort, and blurred vision were reported in 5-8% of patients.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
ROCKLATAN® (netarsudil and latanoprost ophthalmic solution) 0.02%/0.005% is indicated for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
The recommended dosage is one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening. If one dose is missed, treatment should continue with the next dose in the evening. The dosage of ROCKLATAN® should not exceed once daily. ROCKLATAN® may be used concomitantly with other topical ophthalmic drug products to lower IOP. If more than one topical ophthalmic drug is being used, the drugs should be administered at least five (5) minutes apart.
