Methodology
Randomized controlled trial of adjunctive oral forskolin plus rutin versus standard therapy alone on intraocular pressure in primary open-angle glaucoma on maximum tolerated topical therapy
Key Findings
Adding oral forskolin and rutin produced a further reduction in intraocular pressure compared with maximum tolerated medical therapy alone
Conclusions
Oral forskolin and rutin may provide additional IOP-lowering benefit in inadequately controlled POAG
Limitations
Sample size not clearly reported; IOP-only endpoint; moderate duration
Supplements Studied
Adding oral forskolin and rutin produced a further reduction in intraocular pressure compared with maximum tolerated medical therapy alone
