Timolol Maleate is a beta-adrenergic antagonist similar in action to propranolol. The levo-isomer is the more active. This compound has been proposed as an antihypertensive, antiarrhythmic, antiangina, and antiglaucoma agent. Similar to propranolol and nadolol, this compound is a non-selective, beta-adrenergic receptor antagonist. This chemical has a higher affinity for the beta 2-adrenoceptor than for the beta 1-adrenoceptor in human atrium. It does not have significant intrinsic sympathomimetic, direct myocardial depressant, or local anesthetic (membrane-stabilizing) activity, but does possess a relatively high degree of lipid solubility. When applied topically to the eye, this agent has the action of reducing elevated, as well as normal, intraocular pressure, whether or not accompanied by glaucoma. Elevated intraocular pressure is a major risk factor in the pathogenesis of glaucomatous visual field loss and optic nerve damage. Like propranolol and nadolol, it competes with adrenergic neurotransmitters such as catecholamines for binding at β1-adrenergic receptors in the heart and vascular smooth muscle and β2-receptors in the bronchial and vascular smooth muscle. β1-receptor blockade results in a decrease in resting and exercise heart rate and cardiac output, a decrease in both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and, possibly, a reduction in reflex orthostatic hypotension. β2-blockade results in an increase in peripheral vascular resistance. The exact mechanism whereby this compound reduces ocular pressure is still not known. The most likely action is by decreasing the secretion of aqueous humor.
