Additive Intraocular Pressure Reduction Effect of Fixed Combination of Maleate Timolol 0.5%/Dorzolamide 2% (Cosopt) on Monotherapy With Latanoprost (Xalatan) in Patients With Elevated Intraocular Pressure: A Prospective, 4-week, Open-label, Randomized, Controlled Clinical Trial. [2009.09.02]
PURPOSE: To evaluate the additive effect of dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination in patients under monotherapy with latanoprost... CONCLUSIONS: In our sample, dorzolamide 2%/timolol 0.5% fixed combination as add-on therapy in patients with open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension under monotherapy with latanoprost with IOP already in mid-teens levels may further enhance pressure reduction.
Pneumatic trabeculoplasty vs latanoprost as adjunctive therapy to timolol in primary open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. [2009.08]
CONCLUSIONS: In eyes with glaucomatous damage that is not advanced, PNT can reduce the IOP in 60% of the eyes at 1 month, and in 33% of the eyes at 3 months, without significant side-effects. The indications, efficacy and safety of PNT retreatments remain to be investigated. IOP reduction is less and of shorter duration than that obtained by latanoprost adjunctive therapy.
A comparison of the long-term effects of dorzolamide 2% and brinzolamide 1%, each added to timolol 0.5%, on retrobulbar hemodynamics and intraocular pressure in open-angle glaucoma patients. [2009.06]
PURPOSE: To compare the effect on the retrobulbar hemodynamics and intraocular pressure (IOP) of dorzolamide 2% and brinzolamide 1%, each added to timolol 0.5% in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG)... CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest augmented retrobulbar blood flow after 5 years of treatment with dorzolamide but not with brinzolamide, each added to timolol, in POAG patients.
24-hour intraocular pressure and blood pressure levels with latanoprost/timolol fixed combination versus timolol. [2009.05]
PURPOSE: To evaluate 24-hr intraocular pressure (IOP) and blood pressure (BP) with timolol or latanoprost/timolol fixed combination (LTFC)... CONCLUSIONS: Neither timolol or evening-dosed LTFC reduced SBP, DBP, MBP, OPP, or increased nocturnal dipping. LTFC was more effective than timolol in decreasing IOP.
Ophthalmic timolol in a hydrogel vehicle leads to minor inter-individual variation in timolol concentration in aqueous humor. [2009.02.15]
Ophthalmic timolol has been used for decades in the treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension, traditionally in aqueous 0.5% eye drops...
Clinical Trials Related to Timolol GFS (Timolol Ophthalmic)
24-Hour IOP Control With Dorzolamide/Timolol and Latanoprost/Timolol Fixed Combination in Open-Angle Glaucoma [Completed]
The primary objective of this crossover trial is to compare the 3-month mean 24-hour
intraocular pressure (IOP) control and safety of dorzolamide/timolol fixed combination (DTFC)
given twice daily, versus latanoprost/timolol fixed combination (LTFC) given in the evening
and placebo given in the morning, versus adjunctive therapy with DTFC given twice daily and
latanoprost 0. 005% given once in the evening in open-angle glaucoma patients who are
insufficiently controlled with latanoprost monotherapy.
Safety and Efficacy Study of Brimonidine/Timolol Fixed Combination in Patients With Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension [Completed]
This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of brimonidine 0. 2%/timolol 0. 5% fixed
combination ophthalmic solution compared with concurrent brimonidine 0. 2% and timolol
ophthalmic solutions
Study to Evaluate Safety of Brimonidine/Timolol Fixed Combination in Glaucoma or Ocular Hypertension Patients [Completed]
MK0507A Phase III Double-Blind, Comparative Study [Completed]
The clinical study compares safety and efficacy of MK0507A (dorzolamide 1. 0% / timolol 0. 5%)
with 1) timolol 0. 5% and with 2) concomitant therapy with dorzolamide 1. 0% / timolol 0. 5% in
patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension.
Xalacom And Combination Of Unfixed Latanoprost And Timolol In Subjects With Open-Angle Glaucoma Or Ocular Hypertension [Completed]
to compare efficacy and safety of Xalacom with the combination of unfixed Latanoprost and
Timolol in subjects with open-angel glaucoma or ocular hypertension
