5. Study Description
Brief Summary
It is known that several common eye diseases are associated with ocular perfusion abnormalities. Moxaverine is used in the therapy of perfusion abnormalities in the brain, the heart and the extremities because of its direct vasodilatory effects. The present study seeked to investigate whether moxaverine alters ocular blood flow in healthy volunteers after intravenous administration.
