Title: [Preliminary study of acidification of the pH of the aqueous humor in rats treated with timolol maleate]. Author: Balacco-Gabrieli C, Reibaldi A, Salamanna S, Mininno L, Vavalle G, Giuliani E. Journal: Boll Soc Ital Biol Sper; 1980 Oct 30; 56(20):2071-5. PubMed ID: 7459118. Abstract: The Authors have studied in a homogeneous group of rabbits the variations of intraocular pressure and of aqueous humour pH caused by instillation of timolol maleate at different concentrations. In the animals treated with drug concentration of 0,25% and 0,5% a constant reduction of IOP has been observed in comparison with controls, associated to acidification of aqueous humour: no evidence of this correlation it seems to be at low doses of timolol. Further studies are in course to indicate an eventual action of intermediate substances in the mechanism of IOP depression caused by timolol.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
