Description:

Dorzolamide Hydrochloride [Cas No. 130693-82-2] is a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor API widely used for treatment of glaucoma and ocular hypertension. Dorzolamide Hydrochloride inhibits carbonic anhydrase in the ciliary body by which it reduces aqueous humor production and lowers intraocular pressure [IOP]. When IOP is reduced, optic nerve is protected, and vision is preserved making Dorzolamide Hydrochloride a key component in both monotherapy and fixed dose combination treatment. Dorzolamide is administered topically and has good safety profile with targeted ocular action and systemic absorption is very low which makes it first choice for glaucoma therapy.

Product Specifications

Dorzolamide API should be handled according to standard pharmaceutical material safety and industrial hygiene procedures. Appropriate protective measures must be followed during handling and processing of the ophthalmic active pharmaceutical ingredient in GMP manufacturing environments.

  • Use appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE)

  • Avoid inhalation of powder and contact with skin or eyes

  • Handle in controlled pharmaceutical manufacturing areas

  • Follow GMP material handling procedures

  • Refer to Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed safety guidance

This API is intended exclusively for pharmaceutical manufacturing and formulation use.

Mechanism of Actions

Dorzolamide is a carbonic anhydrase II inhibitor that reduces aqueous humor production in the ciliary processes of the eye. By inhibiting carbonic anhydrase, it decreases bicarbonate ion formation and fluid transport, leading to reduced intraocular pressure. This mechanism supports its therapeutic use in glaucoma and ocular hypertension treatment.

Safety Precautions

  • Handle in approved pharmaceutical manufacturing facilities

  • Avoid exposure without protective equipment

  • Prevent dust generation and inhalation

  • Follow GMP containment procedures

  • Dispose according to regulatory guidelines

Storage

  • Store in tightly closed containers

  • Protect from moisture and light

  • Maintain controlled room temperature

  • Keep in designated API storage areas

  • Follow GMP warehouse practices
