摘要
PURPOSE: To determine whether latanoprost, an ocular hypotensive agent believed to enhance uveoscleral outflow of aqueous humor, augments the aqueous-suppressing effect of dorzolamide, a topical carbonic anhydrase inhibitor. METHODS: Twenty-four normal subjects underwent measurement of aqueous humor flow by fluorophotometry to determine the flow with placebo, with dorzolamide, and with a combination of dorzolamide and latanoprost. RESULTS: The flow of aqueous humor was suppressed 13% by dorzolamide but not by latanoprost. Latanoprost did not augment the effect of dorzolamide on aqueous humor flow; latanoprost and dorzolamide had additive ocular hypotensive effects. CONCLUSIONS: The uveoscleral flow effect of latanoprost does not improve the aqueous-suppressing effect of dorzolamide, but the two drugs have additive ocular hypotensive effects.
