Timodor is indicated for:
Pharmacology
Dorzolamide Hydrochloride and Timolol Maleate lower intraocular pressure (IOP) through two complementary actions. Dorzolamide inhibits human carbonic anhydrase II, which slows the formation of bicarbonate ions in the eye; this reduces sodium and fluid transport and, in turn, decreases the secretion of aqueous humor. Timolol is a non-selective beta-adrenergic receptor blocker without significant intrinsic sympathomimetic, direct myocardial depressant, or local anesthetic (membrane-stabilizing) activity; it lowers IOP by reducing the formation of aqueous humor in the ciliary epithelium.
