title: [Use of Betaxolol in patients with glaucoma and chronic nonspecific diseases of the respiratory system].
abstract: Betaxolol is a new antiglaucomatous drug which is blocking solely the beta 1 receptors and in contrast to Timolol may be applied in persons with spastic conditions of the bronchi. It has been given twice daily to 9 persons with glaucoma and long standing bronchial asthma. In the period of observation (1.5-6.5 months) neither of the examined patients showed any deterioration of the spirometric indexes nor bradycardia. In a part of the patients the intraocular pressure was normalized only by application of Betaxolol; over one half of them however needed additionally the use of miotics.
