Laboratory and clinical studies on the mechanism of action of timolol.

A H Neufeld, S P Bartels, J H Liu.   

Abstract

Timolol is now widely used in the treatment of glaucoma but its mechanism of action is unclear. The drug decreases aqueous humor formation by the ciliary processes and is a potent beta-adrenergic antagonist. However, the physiological basis for such a drug to decrease intraocular pressure has not been clearly demonstrated.
