Epinastine Hydrochloride
Indications
Epinastine sterile ophthalmic solution is indicated for the treatment of signs and symptoms of allergic conditions of the anterior segment of the eye.
Pharmacology
Epinastine is a topically active antihistamine that antagonizes both histamine H1 and H2 receptors. Moreover, it has mast cell stabilizing activity and prevents the release of inflammatory mediators from the blood vessel. Epinastine does not penetrate the blood-brain barrier and therefore is not expected to induce side effects on the central nervous system.
Dosage Administration
Instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) twice daily.
Contraindications
The most frequently reported side effects are mild burning sensation, folliculosis, hyperemia, pruritus, cold symptoms and upper respiratory infections.
Side Effects
There are no adequate and well-controlled studies on pregnant women. Epinastine should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus. It is not known whether Epinastine is excreted in human milk. Caution should be exercised when Epinastine is administered to a nursing mother.
Pregnancy And Lactation
For ophthalmic use only. Patients should be advised not to wear contact lenses if their eye is red.
