Anatozoline HCl and Tetrahydrozoline HCl are sympathomimetic agents, specifically alpha-adrenergic agonists, that are commonly used as eye drops. Their primary indications include:
Conjunctival congestion: Both Anatozoline HCl and Tetrahydrozoline HCl can help reduce redness and irritation in the eyes caused by allergens, pollutants, or other irritants by constricting the blood vessels in the conjunctiva.
Ocular itching: These medications can provide temporary relief from itching or discomfort associated with allergies or irritants.
Dry or tired eyes: While not a primary treatment for dry eye syndrome, Anatozoline HCl and Tetrahydrozoline HCl can provide temporary relief for dry or tired eyes by reducing redness and inflammation through vasoconstriction.
