Hi & Welcome to HCM.
It is OK to take Latanoprost eye drops while on Cephalexin.

The antibiotic Cephalexin which is prescribed to treat bladder infection & Vesicare (Solifenacin) which reduces muscle spasms of the urinary bladder associated with the infection can be taken safely along with the eye drops like Azopt (Brinzolamide) & Latanoprost as there's no harmful interaction when taken together.

Hope this answers your query.
