is a
noncardioselective beta-adrenoceptor blocking agent for ophthalmic
use. The solution is
colorless to slightly light yellow in appearance with an osmolality
range of 250-360
mOsm/kg. The shelf life pH range is 5.5 to 7.5.
CHEMICAL NAME:
(-)-(_S_)-5-[3-(_tert_-Butylamino)-2-hydroxypropoxy]-3,4-dihydro-1(_2H_)-
naphthalenone hydrochloride.
STRUCTURAL FORMULA: levobunolol HCl
CONTAINS: ACTIVE: levobunolol HCl 0.5%. PRESERVATIVE: benzalkonium
chloride 0.004%
INACTIVES: edetate disodium; polyvinyl alcohol 1.4%; potassium
phosphate, monobasic;
purified water; sodium chloride; sodium metabisulfite; sodium
phosphate, dibasic; and
hydrochloric acid or sodium hydroxide to adjust pH.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Levobunolol HCl is a noncardioselective beta-adrenoceptor blocking
agent, equipotent at
both beta and beta receptors. Levobunolol HCl is greater than 60 times
more potent
than its dextro isomer in its beta-blocking activity, yet equipotent
in its potential for
direct myocardial depression. Accordingly, the levo isomer,
levobunolol HCl, is used.
Levobunolol HCl does not have significant local anesthetic
(membrane-stabilizing) or
intrinsic sympathomimetic activity.
Beta-adrenergic receptor blockade reduces cardiac output in both
healthy subjects and
patients with heart disease. In patients with severe impairment of
myocardial function,

beta-adrenergic receptor blockade may inhibit the stimulatory effect
of the sympathetic
nervous system necessary to maintain adequate cardiac function.
Beta-adrenergic receptor blockade in the bronchi and bronchioles
results in increased
airway resistance from unopposed parasympathetic activity. Such an
effect in patients
with asthma or other bronchospastic conditions is potentially
dangerous.
