Product Description
Cyclopentolate (DL-Cyclopentolate) is an atropine-like muscarinic receptor antagonist (inhibitor) with a pKB value of 7.8 for ciliary muscle muscarinic receptors. Cyclopentolate is a extensively usedantimuscarinic agent in ophthalmology.
Biological Activity I Assay Protocols (From Reference)
ln Vivo
Ninety percent of rats given cyclopentolate (20 mg/kg) survive[3].
ADME/Pharmacokinetics
Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
Absorbed following ophthalmic administration.
Toxicity/Toxicokinetics
Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation
No information is available on the use of cyclopentolate during breastfeeding. Anticholinergic drugs might interfere with breastfeeding. A single dose of ophthalmic cyclopentolate is not likely to interfere with breastfeeding; however, during long-term use, observe the infant for signs of decreased lactation (e.g., insatiety, poor weight gain). To substantially diminish the amount of drug that reaches the breastmilk after using eye drops, place pressure over the tear duct by the corner of the eye for 1 minute or more, then remove the excess solution with an absorbent tissue.
◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants
Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date.
◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk
Anticholinergics can inhibit lactation in animals, apparently by inhibiting growth hormone and oxytocin secretion. Anticholinergic drugs can also reduce serum prolactin in nonnursing women. The prolactin level in a mother with established lactation may not affect her ability to breastfeed.

Additional Infomation
Cyclopentolate is a carboxylic ester resulting from the formal condensation of (1-hydroxycyclopentyl)(phenyl)acetic acid with N,N-dimethylethanolamine. A tertiary amine antimuscarinic with actions similar to atropine, it is used as its hydrochloride salt to produce mydriasis (excessive dilation of the pupil) and cycloplegia (paralysis of the ciliary muscle of the eye) for opthalmic diagnostic procedures. It acts more quickly than atropine and has a shorter duration of action. It has a role as a mydriatic agent, a parasympatholytic, a muscarinic antagonist and a diagnostic agent. It is a carboxylic ester, a tertiary amino compound and a tertiary alcohol. It is functionally related to a (1-hydroxycyclopentyl)phenylacetic acid and a N,N-dimethylethanolamine.
A parasympatholytic anticholinergic used solely to obtain mydriasis or cycloplegia.
A parasympatholytic anticholinergic used solely to obtain mydriasis or cycloplegia.
See also: Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride (has salt form).
Drug Indication
Used mainly to produce mydriasis and cycloplegia for diagnostic purposes.
Mechanism of Action
By blocking muscarinic receptors, cyclopentolate produces dilatation of the pupil (mydriasis) and prevents the eye from accommodating for near vision (cycloplegia).
Pharmacodynamics
Cyclopentolate is an anti-muscarinic in the same class as atropine and scopolamine. Cyclopentolate blocks the receptors in the muscles of the eye (muscarinic receptors). These receptors are involved controlling the pupil size and the shape of the lens. Cyclopentolate thus induces relaxation of the sphincter of the iris and the ciliary muscles. When applied topically to the eyes, it causes a rapid, intense cycloplegic and mydriatic effect that is maximal in 15 to 60 minutes; recovery usually occurs within 24 hours. The cycloplegic and mydriatic effects are slower in onset and longer in duration in patients who have dark pigmented irises.
