Echothiophate is an organophosphate and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitor.{37301} It is more active at ocular acetylcholinesterases than those isolated from rabbit brain, liver, or blood. In vivo, topical ocular administration of echothiophate (0.125 and 0.25% w/v) reduces intraocular pressure and induces miosis in dogs with normotensive eyes and those with inherited glaucoma.{37302} It also induces formation of subcapsular cataracts in cynomolgus monkeys.{37303} Formulations containing echothiophate have been used for the treatment of glaucoma.
