Abstract
Brimonidine is a highly selective 2-adrenoceptor agonist that lowers intraocular pressure (IOP) by decreasing aqueous humor production and increasing aqueous humor outflow via the uveoscleral route. Brimonidine is used to treat glaucoma and other eye conditions. Brimonidine is a topical medication that is used mainly to treat open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension in the eyelids. The purpose of this chapter is to provide a comprehensive discussion of Brimonidine's nomenclature, physiochemical properties, preparation methods, identification procedures, and numerous qualitative and quantitative analytical techniques, as well as its ADME profiles and pharmacological effects. In addition, the chapter contains numerous approaches for separating brimonidine from other medications in combination formulations utilizing chromatographic techniques and other spectroscopic approaches.
