The Effect of Inhaled Corticosteroids on Intraocular Pressure in Patients With Ocular Hypertension or Controlled Glaucoma.
In Brief
A Phase 4 clinical trial evaluating Fluticasone propionate inhaler and Saline placebo inhaler for Ocular Hypertension and Glaucoma, Open-Angle. Completed, enrolled 22 participants.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a commonly prescribed orally inhaled corticosteroid treatment will induce a clinically meaningful elevation in intraocular pressure, when administered to patients with ocular hypertension (OHT) or open-angle glaucoma (OAG). Based on the response to high-dose corticosteroids, this patient group is more likely than the normal population to demonstrate this adverse effect.
