How Vitafol Ophthalmic Solution (2 mg+0.5 mg +0.6 mg+10 mg)/ml works

Agonism of adenosine receptors A1 and A2 reduces conduction time in the atrioventricular node of the heart. Conduction time is decreased by inducing potassium efflux and inhibiting calcium influx through channels in nerve cells, leading to hyperpolarization and and increased threshold for calcium dependent action potentials. Decreased conduction time leads to an antiarrhythmic effect. Inhibition of calcium influx, reduces the activity of adenylate cyclase, relaxing vascular smooth muscle. Relaxed vascular smooth muscle leads to increased blood flow through normal coronary arteries but not stenotic arteries, allowing thallium-201 to be more readily uptaken in normal coronary arteries.
