Effects of Forskolin on Intraocular Pressure in Glaucomatous Patients Under Treatment With Either Beta-blockers or Prostaglandins Eye Drops

Primary Open Angle Glaucoma Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effects of the Oral Administration of an Association of Forskolin With Rutin and Vitamins B on Intraocular Pressure in Patients Affected by Primary Open Angle Glaucoma and Treated With Either Beta-blockers or Prostaglandin Eye Drops

Clinical Trial Summary

Elevated intraocular pressure is still the main risk factor for development and progression of glaucoma. Several drugs exist on the market that may decrease IOP in glaucomatous patients. However, some patients cannot reach the target pressure despite a multitherapy with a combination of drugs, and are therefore addressed to surgical treatments. Forskolin is a natural compound that is a receptor-independent adenyl-cyclase activator, that increases intracellular cAMP. It has been shown to be able to decrease IOP after topical application, by a mechanism that is not used by the other drugs. Aim of the present study is to see whether oral administration of a food supplement containing forskolin (KRONEK) has any effect on the IOP of POAG patients with stable IOP obtained by treatment with either beta-blockers or prostaglandins.
