hexamethonium and Intraocular Pressure

hexamethonium has been researched along with Intraocular Pressure in 7 studies

Hexamethonium: A nicotinic cholinergic antagonist often referred to as the prototypical ganglionic blocker. It is poorly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and does not cross the blood-brain barrier. It has been used for a variety of therapeutic purposes including hypertension but, like the other ganglionic blockers, it has been replaced by more specific drugs for most purposes, although it is widely used a research tool.

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