About

A modified prostaglandin analog for hair conditioning — related to the eyelash-growth drug latanoprost but with structural modifications.

Benzothiophenyl Dephenethyllatanoprost is a structural analog of latanoprost, a prostaglandin F2α analog originally developed for glaucoma treatment that was found to stimulate eyelash/hair growth. The benzothiophenyl modification and dephenethylation alter its receptor binding profile. CosIng-listed for hair conditioning. No GHS codes assigned. As a prostaglandin analog, it carries potential for periorbital side effects (iris darkening, orbital fat loss) seen with related compounds.
