Pharmacological action

Pharmacological action

NSAIDs for topical use in ophthalmology. It has anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects.

The mechanism of action is due to the indiscriminate inhibition of the activity of COX-1 and COX-2, which leads to the suppression of the synthesis of prostaglandins in the focus of inflammation.

When used in the form of eye drops, diclofenac sodium reduces eye inflammation resulting from infection, trauma or surgery, reduces miosis during surgery, and reduces the synthesis of prostaglandins in the moisture of the anterior chamber of the eye.

When instilling eye drops, diclofenac sodium is absorbed into the systemic circulation. However, the level of active substance in the blood is significantly lower than the detection limit and has no clinical significance.
