verapamil and Chronic Primary Open Angle Glaucoma

verapamil has been researched along with Chronic Primary Open Angle Glaucoma in 8 studies

Verapamil: A calcium channel blocker that is a class IV anti-arrhythmia agent.
verapamil : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of dexverapamil and (S)-verapamil. An L-type calcium channel blocker of the phenylalkylamine class, it is used (particularly as the hydrochloride salt) in the treatment of hypertension, angina pectoris and cardiac arrhythmia, and as a preventive medication for migraine.
2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-{[2-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)ethyl](methyl)amino}-2-(propan-2-yl)pentanenitrile : A tertiary amino compound that is 3,4-dimethoxyphenylethylamine in which the hydrogens attached to the nitrogen are replaced by a methyl group and a 4-cyano-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-methylhexyl group.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"As glaucoma is one of the most significant causes of blindness, and administration of calcium channel blockers is effective in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) in rabbits and patients with normotensive glaucoma, we administered topical verapamil 0."5.14Comparative study of topical application of timolol and verapamil in patients with glaucoma within 6 months. ( Boloorian, AA; Kianoush, S; Shayegan, MR, 2009)
"There were no significant differences in preoperative mean intraocular pressure, mean number of medications, and glaucoma severity between the verapamil and placebo groups."5.09Topical verapamil in glaucoma filtration surgery. ( Hughes, BA; Juzych, MS; Kardasis, CT; Keole, NS; Kim, C; Shin, DH, 2001)
"Vasospasm has been implicated as a cause of amaurosis fugax, which can be controlled by administration of the calcium channel blockers nifedipine or verapamil."3.69Recovery from ocular ischemic syndrome after treatment with verapamil. ( Beckman, RL; Winterkorn, JM, 1995)
