ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to arginine and arginine-like compounds and to methods employing these compounds as ocular hypotensive agents. These compounds are effective when applied topically, may be used in low concentrations and are nontoxic. Additionally, the invention includes several new arginine derivatives with varying lipophilicities particularly suited for topical administration.
