Taflan SUD is a 100% preservative-free ophthalmic solution. Taflan SUD (Tafluprost) is a selective FP (Fluoroprostaglandin) prostanoid receptor agonist which reduces intraocular pressure by increasing uveoscleral outflow as well as to a lesser degree through the trabecular outflow pathway. It also relaxes the ciliary artery in smooth muscle due to inhibition of Ca2+ influx into the cells. Hence, it increases ocular blood flow and thus provides neuroprotective action. Taflan SUD shows a lower incidence of Conjunctival hyperemia & Iris pigmentation than other prostaglandin Analogues.
