<!--Contraindications-->
<!--Contraindications-->
|contraindications=* Condition1
|contraindications=* Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride Ophthalmic Solution should not be used when untreated [[narrow-angle glaucoma]], or untreated anatomically narrow angles are present, or if the patient is hypersensitive to any component of this preparation.


<!--Warnings-->
<!--Warnings-->
|warnings=* Description
|warnings=* For topical ophthalmic use only. Not for injection. This preparation may cause CNS disturbances. This is especially true in younger age groups, but may occur at any age, especially with the stronger solutions. Infants are especially prone to CNS and cardiopulmonary side effects from cyclopentolate. To minimize absorption, use only 1 drop of 0.5% cyclopentolate hydrochloride ophthalmic solution per eye, followed by pressure applied over the [[nasolacrimal sac]] for two to three minutes. Observe infants closely for at least 30 minutes.
 
* [[Mydriatics]] may produce a transient elevation of [[intraocular pressure]].


====Precautions====
====Precautions====


* Description
* General: The lacrimal sac should be compressed by digital pressure for two to three minutes after instillation to reduce excessive systemic absorption. Caution should be observed when considering use of this medication in the presence of Down's syndrome and in those predisposed to [[angle-closure glaucoma]].

|clinicalTrials======Ocular=====
* [[Increased intraocular pressure]], [[burning]], [[photophobia]], [[blurred vision]], [[irritation]], [[hyperemia]], [[conjunctivitis]], [[blepharoconjunctivitis]], [[punctate keratitis]], [[synechiae]] have been reported.
=====Non-ocular=====
* Use of cyclopentolate has been associated with [[psychotic reactions]] and [[behavioral disturbances]], usually in children, especially with 2% concentration. These disturbances include [[ataxia]], [[incoherent speech]], [[restlessness]], [[hallucinations]], [[hyperactivity]], [[seizures]], [[disorientation]] as to time and place, and failure to recognize people. This drug produces reactions similar to those of other [[anticholinergic]] drugs, but the central nervous system manifestations as noted above are more common. Other manifestations of anticholinergic drugs are skin [[rash]], abdominal distention in infants, unusual [[drowsiness]], [[tachycardia]], [[hyperpyrexia]], [[vasodilation]], [[urinary retention]], diminished [[gastrointestinal motility]] and decreased secretion in [[Salivary glands|salivary]] and [[sweat glands]], [[pharynx]], [[bronchi]] and [[nasal passages]]. Severe manifestations of toxicity include [[coma]], [[medullary paralysis]] and death.

Pharmacodynamics

There is limited information regarding Pharmacodynamics of Cyclopentolate in the drug label.

Pharmacokinetics

  • This anticholinergic preparation blocks the responses of the sphincter muscle of the iris and the accommodative muscle of the ciliary body to cholinergic stimulation, producing pupillary dilation (mydriasis) and paralysis of accommodation (cycloplegia). It acts rapidly, but has a shorter duration than atropine. Maximal cycloplegia occurs within 25 to 75 minutes after instillation. Complete recovery of accommodation usually takes 6 to 24 hours. Complete recovery from mydriasis in some individuals may require several days. Heavily pigmented irides may require more doses than lightly pigmented irides.
