Olopatadine, sold under the brand name Opatanol among others, is a medication used to decrease the symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis and allergic rhinitis (hay fever).[2] It is used as eye drops or as a nasal spray.[2] The eye drops generally result in an improvement within half an hour.[2]

Common side effects include headache, sore throat, eye discomfort, change in taste.[3][2] More significant side effects may include sleepiness.[2] It is unclear if use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is safe.[4] It is an antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer.[5][2]

Olopatadine was patented in 1986 and came into medical use in 1997.[6] It is available as a generic medication.[2] In 2017, it was the 270th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than one million prescriptions.[7][8]

Pharmacology

Pharmacodynamics

Olopatadine acts as a selective antagonist of the histamine H1 receptor, thus stabilizing mast cells and inhibiting histamine release.

History

Olopatadine was patented in 1986 by Kyowa Hakko Kogyo and came into medical use in 1997.[6]

In the United States, Pataday Twice Daily Relief was first approved by the FDA in 1996, under the name Patanol as a prescription drug and was indicated for the treatment of the signs and symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis (referring to ocular redness and itching due to allergies).[1] Pataday – now Pataday Once Daily Relief – was first approved by the FDA in 2004, as a prescription drug and was indicated for the treatment of ocular itching associated with allergic conjunctivitis.[1] These drugs are mast cell stabilizers, which work by preventing the release of histamine and therefore prevent or control allergic disorders.[1]

In February 2020, Pataday Twice Daily Relief and Pataday Once Daily Relief were switched to be over-the-counter drugs in the United States when the FDA granted the approvals of the nonprescription products to Alcon.[1]
