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.
