Abstract

Ophthalmic pharmaceutical compositions useful in controlling elevated intraocular pressure associated with glaucoma and ocular hypertension are described. The compositions comprise a combination of a beta-blocker to reduce the production of aqueous humor and carbachol to enhance the outflow of aqueous humor. A method of controlling elevated intraocular pressure with those compositions is also described.
