Description

Nonafluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)cyclohexane is a film-forming polymer that consists of a mixture of long-chain fatty acids, malic acid and sodium citrate. It is used as an intravitreal injection to fill the eye cavity in patients with eye diseases such as macular degeneration or diabetic retinopathy. The polymer is injected into the eye to form a protective layer on the surface of the retina. The film is insoluble and provides an extended release of fatty acids, malic acid and sodium citrate that are then slowly released into the vitreous humor. This decreases inflammation, prevents the formation of new blood vessels, and reduces the risk of neovascularization. Nonafluoro-5-(trifluoromethyl)cyclohexane has been shown to be effective in reducing fat accumulation in animal models with obesity induced by high-fat diets. It also has been shown to limit weight
