Fluorometholone Acetate (Oxylone acetate) is a synthetic corticosteroid, used in the treatment of steroid responsive inflammatory conditions of the eye.

Fluorometholone (Fluoromethalone) is a corticosteroid, most often used after laser-based refractive surgery. It is marketed under the brand names FML (Allergan) and Flarex (Alcon). Fluorometholone acetate ophthalmic suspension is indicated for use in the treatment of steroid responsive inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and anterior segment of the eye.

Oxybuprocaine hydrochloride (Oxybuprocaine HCl), a local anesthetic, is used especially in otolaryngology and ophthalmology.

17-phenyl trinor Prostaglandin F2α N-ethyl amide (17-phenyl trinor PGF2α) is an F-series prostaglandin analog which has been approved for use as an ocular hypotensive drug, sold under the Allergan trade name 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α ethyl amide. Investigations in our lab have shown that 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α ethyl amide is converted by an amidase enzymatic activity in the human cornea to yield the corresponding free acid, with a conversion rate of about 25 μg/cornea/24 hours. The free acid, 17-phenyl trinor PGF2α, is a potent FP receptor agonist. 15(R)-17-phenyl trinor PGF2α is the 15-epi, or unnatural isomer of this active free acid metabolite. It has much diminished FP receptor-mediated activity

Eprociclovir dihydrate is a new acyclovir analogue and a potent inhibitor of EHV1 replication and may have potential for the treatment and or prophylaxis of infections with this virus. Eprociclovir possess potent anti-herpetic activity against most human herpesviruses. A-5021 proved to be about 15-fold more potent than acyclovir in inhibiting viral replication. Eprociclovir inhibits murine herpetic keratitis. A-5021 eyedrops, which are easily applied onto the affected cornea, ameliorated clinical scores and suppressed virus growth. Eprociclovir is a promising alternative treatment of herpetic keratitis.

Eprociclovir Na is the salt form of Eprociclovir, also known as A-5021, a new acyclovir analogue and a potent inhibitor of EHV1 replication and may have potential for the treatment and or prophylaxis of infections with this virus. Eprociclovir possess potent anti-herpetic activity against most human herpesviruses. A-5021 proved to be about 15-fold more potent than acyclovir in inhibiting viral replication. Eprociclovir inhibits murine herpetic keratitis. A-5021 eyedrops, which are easily applied onto the affected cornea, ameliorated clinical scores and suppressed virus growth. Eprociclovir is a promising alternative treatment of herpetic keratitis.

Eprociclovir potassium is a new acyclovir analogue and a potent inhibitor of EHV1 replication and may have potential for the treatment and or prophylaxis of infections with this virus. Eprociclovir possess potent anti-herpetic activity against most human herpesviruses. A-5021 proved to be about 15-fold more potent than acyclovir in inhibiting viral replication. Eprociclovir inhibits murine herpetic keratitis. A-5021 eyedrops, which are easily applied onto the affected cornea, ameliorated clinical scores and suppressed virus growth. Eprociclovir is a promising alternative treatment of herpetic keratitis.

Spantide I TFA, a selective NK1 receptor antagonist and a substance P analog, exhibits K(i) values of 230 nM for NK1 and 8150 nM for NK2 receptors, respectively. It offers a method to decrease type 1 while increasing type 2 cytokine IL-10 in the infected cornea, significantly reducing corneal perforation [1] [2] [3].

9-Keto Fluprostenol Isopropyl Ester, an ester derivative of the FP receptor agonist fluprostenol, undergoes oxidation at carbon 9. This compound serves as a potential prodrug for 9-keto fluprostenol, which may function as an agonist at EP receptors. Additionally, it is considered a possible metabolite of fluprostenol isopropyl ester (travoprost), drawing parallels to the metabolism of latanoprost by 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase observed in monkey cornea. Furthermore, certain F-series prostaglandins, such as 6-keto prostaglandin F1α (PGF1α), undergo conversion to their E-series counterparts in isolated human platelets, highlighting a metabolic pathway of relevance.
