Comparison of In Vitro Corneal Permeation and In Vivo Ocular Bioavailability in Rabbits of Three Marketed Latanoprost Formulations
ConclusionBAK did not influence the corneal penetration of latanoprost inin vitro andin vivo studies. The formulation containing a non-ionic surfactant resulted in lower and slower ocular penetration compared with preserved or PF SF formulations. This raises questions about the relevance of BAK and some surfactants in enhancing corneal penetration of ocular formulations.
