Description
11 DESCRIPTION RYALTRIS is a metered-dose manual nasal spray unit containing an aqueous suspension of a fixed‑dose combination of a histamine-1 (H1) receptor inhibitor (olopatadine hydrochloride) and a corticosteroid (mometasone furoate monohydrate). Olopatadine hydrochloride is a white, sparingly water‑soluble crystalline powder. The chemical name for olopatadine hydrochloride is 2‑[(11Z)-11-[3-(dimethylamino)propylidene]-6H-benzo[c][1]benzoxepin-2-yl]acetic acid hydrochloride. It has a molecular weight of 373.88, and its molecular formula is C 21 H 23 NO 3
What Is Olopatadine Hydrochloride And Mometasone Furoate Used For?
1 INDICATIONS AND USAGE RYALTRIS is indicated for the treatment of symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older. RYALTRIS is a combination of olopatadine, a histamine-1 (H1)-receptor inhibitor, and mometasone furoate, a corticosteroid, indicated for the treatment of symptoms of seasonal allergic rhinitis in adult and pediatric patients 12 years of age and older.

Dosage and Administration
2 DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION For nasal use only. The recommended dosage of RYALTRIS is 2 sprays (2 sprays deliver a total of 1,330 mcg of olopatadine hydrochloride and 50 mcg of mometasone furoate) in each nostril twice daily.
Side Effects (Adverse Reactions)
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling:
Drug Interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS No formal drug-drug interaction studies have been performed with RYALTRIS. The drug interactions of the combination are expected to reflect those of the individual components [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . 7.1 Central Nervous System Depressants Concurrent use of RYALTRIS with alcohol or other central nervous system depressants should be avoided because somnolence and impairment of central nervous system performance may occur [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.2 )] . 7.2 Inhibitors of Cytochrome P450 3A4 Studies have shown that mometasone furoate, a component of RYALTRIS, is primarily and extensively metabolized to multiple metabolites. In vitro studies have confirmed the primary role of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 in the metabolism of this compound. Concomitant administration of CYP3A4 inhibitors may inhibit the metabolism of, and increase the mometasone furoate plasma concentration and potentially increase the risk for adverse reactions. Caution should be exercised when considering the coadministration of RYALTRIS with strong CYP3A4 inhibitors [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] .
Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS RYALTRIS is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any ingredients of RYALTRIS. Hypersensitivity reactions, including wheezing, has occurred after nasal administration of mometasone furoate [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.4 )]. Patients with known hypersensitivity to any ingredients of RYALTRIS, including mometasone furoate. ( 4 )
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no available data on RYALTRIS or mometasone furoate use in pregnant women to evaluate for a drug-associated risk of major birth defects, miscarriage or other adverse maternal or fetal outcomes. Postmarketing experience with antihistamines, with similar mechanism of action to olopatadine, 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. Animal reproduction studies have not been conducted with RYALTRIS. However, animal reproduction studies are available for olopatadine hydrochloride and mometasone furoate. Oral administration of olopatadine hydrochloride to pregnant rats and rabbits caused a decrease in the number of live fetuses at maternal doses approximately 120 and 1600 times the maximum recommended human daily intranasal dose (MRHDID) on a mg/m 2 basis, respectively (see Data) . In animal reproduction studies with pregnant mice, rats, or rabbits, mometasone furoate caused increased fetal malformations and decreased fetal survival and growth following administration of doses that produced exposures approximately 1 to 16 times the MRHDID on a mcg/m 2 or AUC basis (see Data) . However, experience with oral corticosteroids suggests that rodents are more prone to teratogenic effects from corticosteroid exposure than humans. 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 estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriages in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively. Data Animal Data No reproductive toxicology studies were conducted with RYALTRIS; however, studies are available for olopatadine hydrochloride and mometasone furoate, as described below. Olopatadine...
Overdosage
10 OVERDOSAGE RYALTRIS contains both olopatadine hydrochloride and mometasone furoate; therefore, the risks associated with overdosage for the individual components described below apply to RYALTRIS. Olopatadine Hydrochloride: Symptoms of antihistamine overdose may include drowsiness in adults and children. Agitation and restlessness, followed by drowsiness in children. Should overdose occur, symptomatic or supportive treatment is recommended. Mometasone Furoate: Chronic overdosage with any corticosteroid may result in signs or symptoms of hypercorticism [see Warnings and Precautions ( 5.6 )] .
How Supplied
16 HOW SUPPLIED/STORAGE AND HANDLING RYALTRIS (NDC 68462-659-27) is supplied in a white plastic bottle fitted with a metered‑dose spray nozzle unit. Each bottle contains a net fill weight of 31 g and will deliver 240 metered sprays in addition to six (6) initial priming sprays [see Description ( 11 )] . Each spray delivers a volume of 0.1 mL suspension as a fine mist, containing 665 mcg of olopatadine hydrochloride equivalent to 600 mcg of olopatadine (base) and 25 mcg of mometasone furoate monohydrate (on the anhydrous basis). The bottle should be discarded after 240 sprays have been used. Storage Store RYALTRIS upright with the purple dust cap on at room temperature (see USP Controlled Room Temperature, between 20°C and 25°C, or between 68°F and 77°F, with excursions permitted between 15°C to 30°C or between 59°F to 86°F).
