B

The MERCURY-1 and MERCURY-2 trials showed the netarsudil/latanoprost fixed‑dose combination produced significantly greater IOP reduction than either netarsudil or latanoprost alone. It is approved for open‑angle glaucoma/ocular hypertension and is given once daily (typically in the evening), not twice daily.
