Homatropine eye drops are indicated for use as a mydriatic and cycloplegic agent.

Homatropine works by blocking muscarinic receptors, the same target atropine acts on, so it produces similar effects on the eye. In place of the acetyl group found in acetylcholine, the drug carries a bulky aromatic group, and this structural difference lets it compete with acetylcholine for those receptor sites. Once bound, it interrupts cholinergic signalling in two ways: it stops the iris sphincter muscle from responding, so the pupil widens (dilates) and no longer reacts to light, and it also blocks the ciliary body's accommodative muscle from responding to cholinergic stimulation, limiting the eye's ability to focus.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Matropin should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether Homatropine is excreted in human milk. Caution should be exercised when Matropin is administered to a nursing mother.

⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
