It is also used to treat port-wine stains, hypertension, myocardial infarction, and for the prevention of migraines and atrial fibrillation, and has certain cardioprotective effects.

Timolol hemimaleate ((S)-L-714,465; MK 950), a β-blocker, is formulated for both systemic and topical use. It is commonly applied topically to decrease intraocular pressure in cases of open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Additionally, it is utilized in research for the treatment of infantile hemangiomas, hypertension, myocardial infarction, migraine prophylaxis, and atrial fibrillation. Moreover, Timolol has been recognized for its cardioprotective effects [1] [2].
