An aqueous ophthalmic solution is disclosed in which one or more acive ingredients in ionized form are gradually brought to undissociated, free base form by lacrimal solution acting against the affect of a plurality of buffers. The affect of each buffer is overcome sequentially by the lacrimal fluid. A preferred formulation includes verapamil HCl as the active ingredient in ionized form and includes as buffers: boric acid at 2.8 %, disodium edetate at 0.18 %, dextrose at 0.3 %, and polyvinylpyrrolidone at 2.0 %. |
