Embodiment Construction

[0017] The present invention will be described in detail below through specific examples.

[0018] Experimental drug: sodium aescinate eye drops, containing 0.01% sodium aescinate, 0.9% NaCl, 0.6% boric acid, and 0.02% benzalkonium bromide, made by Wuhan Aimin Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Latanoprost eye drops, containing 0.005% latanoprost, were purchased from China Resources Zizhu Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.

[0019] A total of 70 outpatients with glaucoma were randomly selected. They all had normal corneas under the slit lamp examination, and the corrected visual acuity of the selected eyes was 0.1 or above. They had a history of laser surgery or inner eye surgery 2 months before treatment; - Adrenergic receptor blockers, adrenergic stimulants, carbonic anhydrase inhibitors, cholinergic preparations; severe blepharitis, keratitis and other acute eye diseases that adversely affect the reliability of the test, heart, liver and kidney functions Patients with disabilities were exclud...

Abstract

The invention discloses use of aescin and salts thereof in preparation of drugs for treating glaucoma and belongs to the field of pharmacy. Proven by clinical trial results, sodium aescinate has the total effective rate of glaucoma treatment of 85.7% and can be used for improving the eyesight of glaucoma patients and lowering the astigmatism and intraocular pressure of the glaucoma patients; during treatment, the incidence rate of adverse reaction caused by the sodium aescinate is 11.4% and is remarkably lower than that caused by Latanoprost eye drop. Proven by the results, the aescin and salts thereof are safe and effective drugs for treating the glaucoma.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the new pharmaceutical application of aescin and its salt, especially the new application in the preparation of medicines for treating glaucoma. The invention also relates to an eye drop for treating glaucoma, which belongs to the pharmaceutical field. Background technique [0002] The intraocular pressure of normal people is 10-21mmHg, and more than 24mmHg is a pathological phenomenon. Glaucoma is a serious eye disease that causes optic disc depression and visual field defect due to increased intraocular pressure, which can eventually lead to blindness. The incidence rate of glaucoma is very high (second only to cataract), and the blindness rate is about 9%. [0003] At present, in the treatment of glaucoma, reducing intraocular pressure is an effective and feasible method. The commonly used methods include surgery, acupuncture and drugs to reduce blood pressure. Among them, drugs are mainly used to reduce blood pressure: β-r...
