NCIt definition : An amino-isoquinoline amide and inhibitor of Rho kinase (ROCK) and norepinephrine
transporter (NET), with potential intraocular pressure (IOP)-lowering activity. Upon
ocular administration, netarsudil inhibits ROCK and the Rho pathway, increases aqueous
humor (AH) outflow via the trabecular pathway, and lowers IOP. In addition, netarsudil
may lower IOP by decreasing episcleral venous pressure and decreasing the production
of aqueous humor through inhibition of NET.;
