Cyclopentolate HCL
Whatsapp Order
Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride (HCL) is a synthetic anticholinergic agent used primarily in ophthalmology. It appears as a white to off-white crystalline powder, soluble in water, with a slightly bitter taste. Cyclopentolate HCL works by temporarily paralyzing the muscles of the eye’s ciliary body and iris, causing pupil dilation (mydriasis) and paralysis of accommodation (cycloplegia). It is commonly formulated into eye drops for diagnostic procedures and therapeutic applications involving the eye.
