To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Padagis at 1-866-634-9120 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The safety data described below reflect exposure to olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray in 2770 patients with seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis in 10 controlled clinical trials of 2 weeks to 12 months duration. Olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray is not indicated for use in patients with perennial allergic rhinitis. The safety data from adults and adolescents are based upon 6 placebo-controlled clinical trials (3.7 pH vehicle nasal spray or 7.0 pH vehicle nasal spray) in which 1834 patients with seasonal or perennial allergic rhinitis (652 males and 1182 females) 12 years of age and older were treated with olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray two sprays per nostril twice daily. There were 1180 patients (olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray, 587; vehicle nasal spray, 593) that participated in 3 efficacy and safety trials of 2 weeks duration. There were 2840 patients (olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray, 1247; 3.7 pH vehicle nasal spray, 1251; 7.0 pH vehicle nasal spray, 342) that participated in 3 long-term clinical trials of 1-year duration. The racial distribution of adult and adolescent patients receiving olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray was 77% white, 9% black, and 14% other. The incidence of discontinuation due to adverse reactions in these controlled clinical trials was comparable for olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray and vehicle nasal spray. Overall, 4.7% of the 1834 adult and adolescent patients across all 6 studies treated with olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray, 3.5% of the 1844 patients treated with 3.7 pH vehicle nasal spray discontinued due to adverse reactions, and 2.9% of the 342 patients treated with 7.0 pH vehicle nasal spray discontinued due to adverse reactions. The safety data from pediatric patients 6 to 11 years of age are based upon 3 clinical trials in which 870 children with seasonal allergic rhinitis (376 females and 494 males) were treated with olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray one or two sprays per nostril twice daily for 2 weeks. The racial distribution of pediatric patients receiving olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray was 68.6% white, 16.6% black, and 14.8% other. The incidence of discontinuation due to adverse reactions in these controlled clinical trials was comparable for olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray and vehicle nasal spray. Overall, 1.4% of the 870 pediatric patients across all 3 studies treated with olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray and 1.3% of the 872 pediatric patients treated with vehicle nasal spray discontinued due to adverse reactions. Adults and Adolescents 12 Years of Age and Older in Short-Term (2-week) Trials There were 1180 patients 12 years of age and older (olopatadine hydrochloride nasal spray, 587; vehicle nasal spray, 593) that participated in 3 efficacy and safety trials of 2 weeks duration. Table 1 presents the most common adverse reactions (0.9% or greater in patients treated with olopatadine h …

7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Formal drug-drug interaction studies were not conducted for olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray). Drug interactions with inhibitors of liver enzymes are not anticipated because olopatadine is eliminated predominantly by renal excretion. Drug interactions involving P450 inhibition and plasma protein binding are also not expected. [ See Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 ) ].

8 USE IN SPECIFIC POPULATIONS 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary Published data from postmarketing experience with antihistamines, with similar mechanism of action to olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray), have not identified a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage, or adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. However, there are no published human data specific to olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray). In animal reproductive studies, oral administration of olopatadine hydrochloride to pregnant rats and rabbits caused a decrease in the number of live fetuses at maternal doses approximately 110 and 1460 times the maximum recommended human daily intranasal dose (MRHDID) on a mg/m 2 basis, respectively (see Data) . The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4%, and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data In an oral embryo-fetal development study, pregnant rabbits were dosed throughout the period of organogenesis at doses up to 400 mg/kg/day. A decrease in the number of live fetuses was observed at 400 mg/kg/day (1460 times the MRHDID, on a mg/m 2 basis). In an oral embryo-fetal development study, pregnant rats were dosed throughout the period of organogenesis at doses up to 600 mg/kg/day. Maternal toxicity, producing death and reduced maternal body weight gain was observed at 600 mg/kg/day (approximately 1100 times the MRHDID on a mg/m 2 basis). Olopatadine produced cleft palate at 60 mg/kg/day (approximately 110 times the MRHDID on a mg/m 2 basis) and decreased embryo-fetal viability and reduced fetal weight in rats at 600 mg/kg/day (approximately 1100 times the MRHDID on a mg/m 2 basis). In peri-/postnatal toxicity studies, pregnant rats received oral doses of olopatadine up to 600 mg/kg/day during late gestation and throughout the lactation period. Olopatadine produced decreased neonatal survival at 60 mg/kg/day (approximately 110 times the MRHDID on a mg/m 2 basis) and reduced body weight gain in pups at 4 mg/kg/day (approximately 7 times the MRHDID on a mg/m 2 basis). These effects appeared attributable to exposure of pups via the milk as demonstrated in a cross-fostered study in which pups of untreated dams cross-fostered to dams treated with 60 mg/kg/day olopatadine orally during the lactation period exhibited decreased body weight gain. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary There are no data on the presence of olopatadine in human milk, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. Although orally administered olopatadine is present in rat milk, there is no information about nasally administered olopatadine. It is not known whether topical nasal administration could result in sufficient systemic absorption to produce detectable quantities in human breast milk. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray) and any potential adverse effects on the breast fed infant from olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray) or from the underlying maternal condition. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and effectiveness of olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray) for the relief of symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis have been established in pediatric patients aged 6 years and older. The safety and effectiveness of olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray) in pediatric patients 6 to 11 years of age are supported by 3 vehicle-controlled 2-week studies in 870 patients [ see Adverse Reactions ( 6.1 ) ]. Doses studied included one and two sprays per nostril twice daily. One of these studies evaluated the safety of olopatadine hydrochloride n …

12.1 Mechanism of Action Olopatadine is a histamine H 1 receptor antagonist. The antihistaminic activity of olopatadine has been documented in isolated tissues, animal models, and humans.

11 DESCRIPTION Olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray), 665 mcg is a metered-spray solution for nasal administration. Olopatadine hydrochloride, the active component of olopatadine hydrochloride nasal solution (nasal spray), is a white, water-soluble crystalline powder.
