Latanoprost is the first FDA approved prostaglandin for intraocular pressure reduction. In 1999, China began importing Latanoprost as a first-line drug in the clinical treatment of glaucoma. In 2004, Latanoprost eye drops developed by Lunan Better were approved for sale, followed by the products of other domestic manufacturers. And there is a continuous rise in the market share of domestic manufacturers. In 2017, Pfizer had the largest market share by sales value, about 39%, a figure that has been declining in recent years.
According to the report, Latanoprost has been growing since it entered China, with its sales value exceeding CNY 40 million in 2017. With an aging population, the incidence of glaucoma is increasing year by year in China. In clinical practice, glaucoma cannot be well treated through operations as cataracts. Therefore, there is a promising market for conservative medications and post-operative medications, and thus a high demand for Latanoprost in China.
