Long-term therapy using a combination of Pilocarpine and Phenylephrine in three different concentrations is described. The trial was carried out in the form of a multi-center study by general practitioners and showed the constant effect over lengthy periods of time, with no signs of tachyphylaxis or an increase in effect, which would have pointed to an increase in the effective level. The number of side-effects is minimal, due to the submaximal doses used.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
