What patent does “latanoprost” have on DailyMed (and what does “iyuzeh” mean)?
DailyMed is the FDA’s database for prescription drug labeling. A query like “latanoprost dailymed patent iyuzeh” usually mixes two different things:
- the specific product/label on DailyMed, and
- a separate “patent/code” string that may refer to a manufacturer or an internal identifier rather than a patent number.
To answer accurately, you’ll need the exact DailyMed link or the full product name (for example, the labeler/manufacturer shown on DailyMed). With only “latanoprost dailymed patent iyuzeh,” there isn’t enough information to identify a specific patent and its status.
How to find the right patent for a specific latanoprost product
For each latanoprost product on DailyMed, the relevant patent/exclusivity information usually comes from matching the product to its:
- ANDA/NDA (active ingredient, strength, dosage form, and manufacturer), and
- Orange Book listings (listed patents and exclusivity for that NDA/ANDA).
If you paste the DailyMed “Drug Label” URL (or the labeler name and strength, like 0.005% ophthalmic solution), I can tell you which Orange Book entry corresponds to that exact product and what patents are listed for it.
When does a latanoprost patent expire (general timing)
Latanoprost is an older ophthalmic medicine, and many brands/generics have long since moved beyond initial approvals. Patent life and exclusivity can vary by:
- which manufacturer’s filing you’re looking at,
- whether patents were listed for a specific NDA/ANDA,
- any patent term extensions, and
- any later “reformulation” or device-related patents.
Because you’re asking specifically about “DailyMed” (a product label view), the only reliable way to give an expiration timeline is to tie the exact DailyMed product to the corresponding Orange Book listing.
Can you share the exact DailyMed label so I can pinpoint the patent?
Send one of the following and I’ll map it to the correct patent/exclusivity record:
- the DailyMed URL for the latanoprost label, or
- the exact product name + manufacturer/labeler shown on DailyMed + strength (and whether it’s drops).
