timolol
Timolol is a type of medication that belongs to the class of drugs known as nonselective beta-adrenergic antagonists, or beta-blockers. It is primarily used in the treatment of hypertension, glaucoma, and migraines. It works by decreasing the heart rate and relaxing blood vessels, which in turn helps to lower blood pressure and reduce the workload on the heart. For glaucoma, it works by reducing the production of fluid in the eyes, thereby decreasing pressure inside the eye.
