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.
Rsudil Plus is indicated for the treatment of elevated intraocular pressure in patients with open angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
The recommended dosage is one drop in the affected eye(s) once daily in the evening.
