Latanoprost (Xalatan) and Ketamine Therapy | Tovani Health

Xalatan (Latanoprost)Topical prostaglandin analog (glaucoma)

Verdict at Tovani Health

Fully compatible; topical eye drop with minimal systemic absorption.

Latanoprost and ketamine have no clinically significant interaction. Once-daily evening eye drop for glaucoma (open-angle and ocular hypertension). Local delivery with negligible systemic absorption. The cosmetic side effects (eyelash growth, iris pigmentation darkening) are intrinsic to the prostaglandin class.

If you take Xalatan regularly and are considering at-home ketamine therapy, the combination is generally safe at therapeutic doses. This page covers the brief pharmacologic context and what we do at intake.

Bottom line
