5-methylurapidil and Glaucoma

5-methylurapidil has been researched along with Glaucoma in 1 studies

Glaucoma: An ocular disease, occurring in many forms, having as its primary characteristics an unstable or a sustained increase in the intraocular pressure which the eye cannot withstand without damage to its structure or impairment of its function. The consequences of the increased pressure may be manifested in a variety of symptoms, depending upon type and severity, such as excavation of the optic disk, hardness of the eyeball, corneal anesthesia, reduced visual acuity, seeing of colored halos around lights, disturbed dark adaptation, visual field defects, and headaches.

"5-Methylurapidil, an antagonist at the alpha 1A-adrenergic receptor subtype and an agonist at the 5-HT1A receptor subtype, lowers IOP predominantly by increasing outflow facility and may have potential for the therapy of glaucoma."3.69Effect of 5-methylurapidil, an alpha 1a-adrenergic antagonist and 5-hydroxytryptamine1a agonist, on aqueous humor dynamics in monkeys and rabbits.
