reserpine has been researched along with Ocular Hypertension in 1 studies
Reserpine: An alkaloid found in the roots of Rauwolfia serpentina and R. vomitoria. Reserpine inhibits the uptake of norepinephrine into storage vesicles resulting in depletion of catecholamines and serotonin from central and peripheral axon terminals. It has been used as an antihypertensive and an antipsychotic as well as a research tool, but its adverse effects limit its clinical use.

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