Latanoprost is a prostaglandin F2α analog as well as a prostaglandin-like selective FP receptor agonist with lipophilic and corneal penetrating properties. In addition, Latanoprost also increases ocular fluid outflow, thereby reducing intraocular pressure, and may be used in studies related to glaucoma.

Animal A (mg/kg) = Animal B (mg/kg) multiplied by | Animal B Km |
Animal A Km |
For example, to modify the dose of Compound A used for a mouse (20 mg/kg) to a dose based on the BSA for a rat, multiply 20 mg/kg by the Km factor for a mouse and then divide by the Km factor for a rat. This calculation results in a rat equivalent dose for Compound A of 10 mg/kg.
