Latisse® - An Overview

Latisse is an FDA-approved treatment for inadequate lashes. People interested in using Latisse can request Latisse eyelash serum medication from a licensed medical provider through Push Health and get Latisse medication, including generic Latisse lash serum, when appropriate to do so.

What Is Latisse Used For?

What is Latisse prescription medication used for? Latisse medication has become popular as an eyelash growth serum but does it really help a person grow eyelashes? Latisse prescription medication is a medication that contains the active ingredient bimatoprost ophthalmic solution 0.03% and is a synthetic prostaglandin analog. Latisse drops were approved by the FDA to treat hypotrichosis of the eyelashes by increasing their growth, including length, thickness and darkness. Latisse eyelash serum is thought to work by increasing the percent of hairs in and the duration of the growth phase and generally works within two months. After one drop of Latisse lash serum, blood levels have been demonstrated to peak within ten minutes and were below detection levels within 1.5 hours after dosing. Once administered, the active ingredient in Latisse prescription medication is primarily found in the plasma and a minority of it is not bound to proteins. Latisse medication demonstrates a half life as short as 45 minutes and the majority of the drug is excreted in the urine.

Latisse - Dosage and Cost

Latisse prescription lash serum is not inexpensive. One 5 mL bottle of Latisse 0.03% will cost approximately $62 at many pharmacies in the United States. Latisse coupons may also be available through the manufacturer and a generic Latisse version was released by Sandoz in 2016. Most insurance plans will not cover the cost of Latisse as it is typically considered an elective medication. Some people may want to try using a Latisse prescription savings card when buying Latisse at the pharmacy. Latisse lash serum is generally applied nightly to the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the eyelashes using an applicator. Excess Latisse solution should be blotted away and the Latisse applicator is only meant to be used one time.

Can I Buy Latisse Online?

Latisse eyelash serum is not available over-the-counter (Latisse OTC) as it is a prescription medication in the United States. In most cases, one cannot simply buy Latisse online as the first step is getting a Latisse prescription from a medical provider before a pharmacy will dispense it. Push Health can connect people interested in using Latisse medication with a licensed medical provider who can prescribe Latisse medication drops, including generic Latisse eyelash serum, when appropriate to do so.

Latisse - Side Effects

Latisse prescription medication side effects do exist. Side effects of Latisse include iris pigmentation, lowering of intraocular (eye) pressure, hair growth outside of the treatment area, contact lens discoloration, and infection if the applicator is contaminated. Other side effects of Latisse medication use include itching, skin changes, dry eye and other eye disorders. Like most medications, Latisse lash serum can cause an allergic reaction in susceptible people. Latisse drops should not be used by people who are hypersensitive to the medication. Questions regarding the use and safety of Latisse eyelash serum should be directed to one's medical provider and pharmacist.
