摘要
The mucolytic drug bromhexine hydrochloride (BH), was formulated in different ophthalmic dosage forms. The influence of the drug from the different formulations on tear flow rate in humans was investigated. The formulations tested were: BH aqueous solution, methylcellulose and carbopol(934) hydrogels; and two polymeric inserts, namely; Gantrez AN 169 (G) and cellulose acetate (CA). The greatest influence on tear production was found using carbopol(934). Although both polymeric inserts showed less influence than carbopol(934), they sustained the action of BH in the human eye.
