Frequently asked questions

What does Timolol Maleate treat?

Timolol Maleate (Timolol Maleate) may be used to treat angina pectoris, open-angle glaucoma, heart failure, hypertension, myocardial infarction, based on NIH RxClass drug-classification data (conditions a drug may treat — not a verbatim copy of the FDA-approved label). This is general reference, not medical advice.

How does Timolol Maleate work?

Timolol Maleate is a beta-adrenergic blocker. Beta-blockers block adrenaline (epinephrine) and noradrenaline from acting on beta-adrenergic receptors, mainly in the heart. This slows the heart rate, reduces how forcefully the heart contracts, and lowers blood pressure, easing the workload on the heart.

How is Timolol Maleate rated?

pharmaranks gives Timolol Maleate a composite score of 3.5 out of 5, currently based on 1 weighted source (FDA regulatory recall-safety data weighted highest). See our methodology at /how-we-rate.

How much does Timolol Maleate cost?

Nobody can tell you what you will pay — your price is set by your insurer's formulary, your deductible and the pharmacy's markup, and none of those are published. What IS published is what the pharmacy paid to acquire it: about $1.06 per ml, per the CMS NADAC survey. Treat that as the floor, not the quote — ask the pharmacist for the cash price as well as your copay, because for cheap generics the cash price often wins.

Is there a coupon or discount for Timolol Maleate?

pharmaranks is an independent ratings site, not a pharmacy — we don't issue coupons or sell Timolol Maleate.
