This is indicated for the reduction of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
This is a fixed-dose combination of a Rho kinase inhibitor and a Prostaglandin F2 analogue. Netarsudil is a Rho kinase inhibitor, works at the cellular level within the trabecular outflow pathway to relax actin-myosin. This causes relaxation within the trabecular meshwork and the inner wall of Schlemm's canal, and decrease episcleral venous pressure (EVP). Latanoprost is a selective FP receptor agonist which reduces the intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing the outflow of aqueous humor through uveoscleral outflow.
