Active Ingredient

Netarsudil, a Rho kinase inhibitor, is believed to reduce intraocular pressure (IOP) by increasing outflow of aqueous humor. Studies in animal and man suggest that the main mechanism of action is increased trabecular outflow. These studies also suggest that netarsudil lowers IOP by reducing episcleral venous pressure.
