Abstract

Aqueous humor levels of pilocarpine and timolol in rabbits after administration of either 2% pilocarpine or 0.5% timolol in single-drug solutions were compared with the concentrations found after instillation of a fixed combination of 0.5% timolol and 2% pilocarpine drops. Time intervals considered were 15 min, 30 min, 1 hr, 4 hr, and 8 hr after application. Drug concentrations were analyzed in individual aqueous samples by high-performance liquid chromatography. No statistically significant differences in either pilocarpine or timolol concentrations in aqueous humor were found at any time tested between the single-drug preparations and the combination.
