Indications
Omidria ® is added to an ocular irrigating solution used during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement and is indicated for maintaining pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis and reducing postoperative ocular pain. OMIDRIA is an alpha 1-adrenergic receptor agonist and nonselective cyclooxygenase inhibitor indicated for: Maintaining pupil size by preventing intraoperative miosis ( 1 ) Reducing postoperative pain ( 1 ) OMIDRIA is added to an ocular irrigating solution used during cataract surgery or intraocular lens replacement.
Contraindications
Omidria is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. Hypersensitivity to any component of this product ( 4 )
Warnings and precautions
Systemic exposure to phenylephrine can cause elevations in blood pressure ( 5.1 ).
5.1Elevated Blood Pressure
Systemic exposure to phenylephrine can cause elevations in blood pressure.
5.2Cross-Sensitivity or Hypersensitivity
There is the potential for cross-sensitivity to acetylsalicylic acid, phenylacetic acid derivatives, and other non-steroidal anti- inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). There have been reports of bronchospasm or exacerbation of asthma associated with the use of ketorolac in patien ts who either have a known hypersensitivity to aspirin/NSAIDs or a past medical history of asthma. Therefore, use Omidria with caution in individuals who have previously exhibited sensitivities to these drugs.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
8.1Pregnancy Risk Summary
There are no available data on Omidria use in pregnant women or animals to inform any drug-associated risks. Oral administration of ketorolac to rats during late gestation produced dystocia and increased pup mortality at a dose 740-times the plasma exposure at the recommended human ophthalmic dose (RHOD). Since human systemic exposure to Omidria following a lens replacement procedure is low (see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)], the applicability of animal findings to the risk of Omidria in humans during pregnancy is unclear.
