Abstract
Recent advancements in prostaglandin analogs (PGAs) have reinforced their role in managing intraocular pressure (IOP). Latanoprost excels in 24-h IOP control, while various PGAs offer similar effectiveness and side effects, generic PGAs perform as well as branded ones, and a notable IOP rise observed upon PGA discontinuation. Formulations with or without preservatives show comparable IOP reduction and adherence, often surpassing benzalkonium chloride (BAK)-preserved options. Emergent PGAs, such as latanoprostene bunod, fixed-dose netarsudil combined with latanoprost, and omidenepag Isopropyl, offer enhanced or non-inferior IOP reduction. The bimatoprost implant introduces a novel administration method with effective IOP reduction. These developments underscore ongoing progress in PGA-focused ophthalmological research. This article offers a comprehensive review of available prostanoid analogs and explores new developments.
