According to Sattler, this synthetic drug, similar to ephedrine and adrenaline, when injected in a 5% aqueous solution and the conjunctival sac, gives moderate pupil dilation for 2-3 hours without accommodation paralysis. Mydriasis can be increased by adding 0.3% homatropin to the 5% efetonin solution.
