  • Ocular therapeutic system for dispensing a medication formulation
    Patent number: 4190642
    Abstract: An ocular system is disclosed for dispensing a medication formulation to the eye. The system comprises a formulation consisting of a pilocarpine osmotic solute and an epinephrine osmotic solute dispersed in a polymer such that the formulation is surrounded substantially individually by the polymer. The system, when placed in the eye, dispenses the formulation at a controlled rate over time. A method also is disclosed for the management of intraocular pressure using the ocular system.
