Aerie’s glaucoma eye drops win early FDA nod

AerieAerie Pharmaceuticals (NSDQ:AERI) won an early FDA nod for its glaucoma drug, Rhopressa. The agency was slated to make a decision about the company’s eye drops in February.

The win for Aerie came after an expert panel voted 9-1 in the drug’s favor. Studies have found that Rhopressa lowers elevated intraocular pressure in the eye, but analysts have noted that the twice-daily generic timolol ophthalmic solution 0.5% is more effective for patients with severe cases of glaucoma.
