BETAXON™ is a trade name for levobetaxolol hydrochloride ophthalmic suspension 0.5%, which is indicated for lowering intraocular pressure in patients with chronic open-angle glaucoma or ocular hypertension. The brand name Betaxon is discontinued in USA, but generic versions may be available. Levobetaxolol is a cardioselective (beta-1¬ adrenergic) receptor-blocking agent that does not have significant membrane-stabilizing (local anesthetic) activity and is devoid of intrinsic sympathomimetic action. Animal studies suggest levobetaxolol (S-isomer) is the more active enantiomer of betaxolol (racemate).

The recommended dose is one drop of BETAXON™ (levobetaxolol hydrochloride
ophthalmic suspension) 0.5% in the affected eye(s) twice daily. In some patients, the intraocular pressure lowering responses to BETAXONTM Ophthalmic Suspension may require a few weeks to stabilize.
