dichlorphenamide and Ocular Hypertension

dichlorphenamide has been researched along with Ocular Hypertension in 3 studies

Dichlorphenamide: A carbonic anhydrase inhibitor that is used in the treatment of glaucoma.
diclofenamide : A sulfonamide that is benzene-1,3-disulfonamide in which the hydrogens at positions 4 and 5 are substituted by chlorine. An oral carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, it partially suppresses the secretion (inflow) of aqueous humor in the eye and so reduces intraocular pressure. It is used for the treatment of glaucoma.

Ocular Hypertension: A condition in which the intraocular pressure is elevated above normal and which may lead to glaucoma.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" In an animal model of ocular hypertension, one of the new compounds was twice more effective than dorzolamide in reducing elevated intraocular pressure characteristic of this disease, anticipating their potential for the treatment of glaucoma."3.77Synthesis and crystallographic analysis of new sulfonamides incorporating NO-donating moieties with potent antiglaucoma action. ( Benedini, F; Biondi, S; Cecchi, A; Formicola, G; Masini, E; Mincione, F; Pacileo, I; Scozzafava, A; Supuran, CT; Temperini, C, 2011)
"A single topical instillation (50 microliter) of the water soluble sodium salt of dichlorphenamide (10%) produced a pronounced and prolonged lowering of intraocular pressure (IOP), compared to suspensions of its free acid, in rabbits with alpha-chymotrypsin-induced ocular hypertension."3.67Topical ocular hypotensive activity and ocular penetration of dichlorphenamide sodium in rabbits. ( Gautheron, PD; Lotti, VJ; Schmitt, CJ, 1984)
"Such an agent would be useful in the treatment of glaucoma."1.28Topically active carbonic anhydrase inhibitors. 2. Benzo[b]thiophenesulfonamide derivatives with ocular hypotensive activity. ( Anderson, PS; Baldwin, JJ; Best, DB; Christy, ME; Freedman, MB; Gautheron, P; Graham, SL; Habecker, CN; Hoffman, JM; Shepard, KL, 1989)
