DESCRIPTION
Nedocromil Sodium Ophthalmic Solution, 2% is a clear, yellow, sterile
solution for topical
ophthalmic use.
Nedocromil sodium is represented by the following structural formula:
CHEMICAL NAME: 4H-Pyrano[3,2-g] quinoline-2, 8-dicarboxylic acid,
9-ethyl-6,9-dihydro-
4,6-dioxo-10-propyl-, disodium salt.
Each mL contains: ACTIVE: Nedocromil Sodium 20 mg/mL (2%);
PRESERVATIVE:
Benzalkonium Chloride 0.01%; INACTIVES: Edetate Disodium 0.05%,
Purified Water, and
Sodium Chloride 0.5%. It has a pH of 4.0 to 5.5 and osmolality range
of 270 to 330
mOsm/kg.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Nedocromil sodium is a mast cell stabilizer. Nedocromil sodium
inhibits the release of
mediators from cells involved in hypersensitivity reactions. Decreased
chemotaxis and
decreased activation of eosinophils have also been demonstrated.
_In vitro_ studies with adult human bronchoalveolar cells showed that
nedocromil sodium
inhibits histamine release from a population of mast cells having been
defined as
belonging to the mucosal sub type and inhibits beta-glucuronidase
release from
macrophages.
PHARMACOKINETICS AND BIOAVAILABILITY
Nedocromil sodium exhibits low systemic absorption. When administered
as a 2%
ophthalmic solution in adult human volunteers, less than 4% of the
total dose was
systemically absorbed following multiple dosing. Absorption is mainly
through the
nasolacrimal duct rather than through the conjunctiva. It is not
metabolized and is
eliminated primarily unchanged in urine (70%) and feces (30%).
INDICATIONS AND USAGE
Nedocromil Sodium Ophthalmic Solution is indicated for the treatment
of itching
associated with allergic conjunctivitis.
CONTRAINDICATIONS
Nedocromil Sodium Ophthalmic Solution is contraindicated in those
patients who have
shown hypersensitivity to nedocromil sodium or to any of the other
ingredients.
