cimetidine and Intraocular Pressure

cimetidine has been researched along with Intraocular Pressure in 8 studies

Cimetidine: A histamine congener, it competitively inhibits HISTAMINE binding to HISTAMINE H2 RECEPTORS. Cimetidine has a range of pharmacological actions. It inhibits GASTRIC ACID secretion, as well as PEPSIN and GASTRIN output.
cimetidine : A member of the class of guanidines that consists of guanidine carrying a methyl substituent at position 1, a cyano group at position 2 and a 2-{[(5-methyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)methyl]sulfanyl}ethyl group at position 3. It is a H2-receptor antagonist that inhibits the production of acid in stomach.

Intraocular Pressure: The pressure of the fluids in the eye.

( Clark, L; Cohen, MM; Feldman, F; Hudy, D, 1984)
"The effect of an intravenous infusion of cimetidine (2 mg/kg of body weight/hr) on intraocular pressure and gastric acid secretion was determined in four healthy young adults and compared with the effect of a control infusion of normal saline."7.66Effect of histamine-2 receptor blockade by cimetidine on intraocular pressure in humans.
