Description

Dipivefrin hydrochloride is a prodrug of epinephrine, an adrenergic agonist, used as a topical ophthalmic solution to treat open-angle glaucoma. It is synthesized by reacting epinephrine with pivaloyl chloride, forming a dipivaloyl ester that is subsequently converted to the hydrochloride salt. Dipivefrin is slowly hydrolyzed in the eye to release epinephrine, which increases outflow of aqueous humor and reduces intraocular pressure. It is studied for its efficacy and safety in managing glaucoma and for potential applications in other ophthalmic conditions. The compound is important for its role in providing sustained release of epinephrine to the eye, leading to improved efficacy in reducing intraocular pressure.'

dipivefrin hydrochloride : The hydrochloride salt of dipivefrin. It is used topically as eye drops to reduce intra-ocular pressure in the treatment of open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension.

Roles (3)

RoleDescription
adrenergic agonistAn agent that selectively binds to and activates adrenergic receptors.
sympathomimetic agentA drug that mimics the effects of stimulating postganglionic adrenergic sympathetic nerves. Included in this class are drugs that directly stimulate adrenergic receptors and drugs that act indirectly by provoking the release of adrenergic transmitters.
antiglaucoma drugAny drug which can be used to prevent or alleviate glaucoma, a disease in which the optic nerve is damaged, resulting in progressive, irreversible loss of vision. It is often, though not always, associated with increased pressure of the fluid in the eye.
