MYDCOMBI (tropicamide and phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic spray) 1% / 2.5% is indicated to induce mydriasis for diagnostic procedures and in conditions where short term pupil dilation is desired.
MYDCOMBI is a combination of tropicamide, an anticholinergic, and phenylephrine hydrochloride, an alpha-1 adrenergic receptor agonist indicated to induce mydriasis for diagnostic procedures and in conditions where short term pupil dilation is desired (1)
Administer one metered spray to the cornea of each eye to be dilated. Repeat after 5 minutes.
Pediatric Patients Younger Than 1 Year Old
In pediatric patients younger than 1 year old, administer one metered spray to the cornea of each eye to be dilated, up to a maximum of 3 sprays per eye per day.
The following steps should be followed sequentially:
MYDCOMBI is a sterile, clear, colorless, topical ophthalmic spray containing tropicamide 1% (w/w) and phenylephrine hydrochloride 2.5% (w/w). Each metered spray delivers 0.008 mL which contains 0.08 mg tropicamide and 0.2 mg phenylephrine hydrochloride.
Ophthalmic spray containing tropicamide 1% and phenylephrine hydrochloride 2.5%. Each metered spray delivers 0.008 mL which contains 0.08 mg tropicamide and 0.2 mg phenylephrine HCl (3)
Contraindicated in persons showing known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation.
MYDCOMBI is not indicated for injection.
Caution should be exercised with the use of MYDCOMBI in pediatric patients less than 5 years of age and patients with hyperthyroidism, or cardiovascular disease. The post-treatment blood pressure of patients with cardiac and endocrine diseases and any patients who develop symptoms should be carefully monitored.
Tropicamide in MYDCOMBI may cause CNS disturbances which may be dangerous in pediatric patients. The possibility of psychotic reactions and behavioral disturbances due to hypersensitivity to anticholinergic drugs should be considered.
Mydriatics may produce a transient elevation of intraocular pressure.
Rebound miosis has been reported one day after receiving phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution, and re-administration of the drug produced a lesser mydriatic effect.
Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. The most common adverse reactions (incidence < 2%) were transient blurred vision, reduced visual acuity, photophobia, and mild eye discomfort.
To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Eyenovia, Inc. at 1-833-393-6684 or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch
Transient blurred vision, reduced visual acuity, photophobia, superficial punctate keratitis, and mild eye discomfort may occur. Increased intraocular pressure has been reported following the use of mydriatics.
Dryness of the mouth, tachycardia, headache, allergic reactions, nausea, vomiting, pallor, central nervous system disturbances and muscle rigidity have been reported with the use of tropicamide. Psychotic reactions, behavioral disturbances, and vasomotor or cardiorespiratory collapse in children have been reported with the use of anticholinergic drugs.
A marked increase in blood pressure has been reported with the use of phenylephrine, particularly, but not limited to, low weight premature neonates, infants, and hypertensive patients.
Phenylephrine in MYDCOMBI may enhance the pressor effects of atropine-like drugs and induce tachycardia in some patients.
Tropicamide in MYDCOMBI may interfere with the antihypertensive action of carbachol, pilocarpine, or ophthalmic cholinesterase inhibitors.
Phenylephrine in MYDCOMBI may potentiate the cardiovascular depressant effects of some inhalation anesthetic agents.
Risk Summary
There are no available data on MYDCOMBI use in pregnant women or animals to inform any drug-associated risks. It is also not known whether tropicamide or phenylephrine can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity. MYDCOMBI should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.
Risk Summary
There are no data on the presence of tropicamide or phenylephrine in human milk from the administration of MYDCOMBI, the effects on the breastfed infant, or the effects on milk production. The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother's clinical need for MYDCOMBI and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from MYDCOMBI.
Tropicamide in MYDCOMBI may rarely cause CNS disturbances which may be dangerous in pediatric patients. Psychotic reactions, behavioral disturbances, and vasomotor or cardiorespiratory collapse in children have been reported with the use of anticholinergic drugs [see Warnings and Precautions (5.3)].
No overall differences in safety or effectiveness of MYDCOMBI have been observed between patients 65 years of age and older and younger adult patients.
Overdosage of MYDCOMBI may cause a rapid rise in blood pressure. It may also cause headache, anxiety, nausea and vomiting, and ventricular arrhythmias. Prompt injection of a rapidly acting alpha- adrenergic blocking agent such as phentolamine has been recommended.
MYDCOMBI is a sterile, clear, colorless fixed dose combination of an anticholinergic (tropicamide) and an alpha-adrenergic receptor agonist (phenylephrine hydrochloride) for topical ophthalmic use. The 2 active ingredients are represented by the chemical structures below.
Tropicamide:
Chemical Name: Benzeneacetamide, N-ethyl-α-(hydroxymethyl)-N-(4-pyridinylmethyl)-
Molecular Formula: C17H20N2O2
Molecular Weight: 284.35 g/mol
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride:
Chemical Name: (R)-3-hydroxy-α[(methylamino)methyl]benzenemethanol hydrochloride
Molecular Formula: C9H13NO2∙HCl
Molecular Weight: 203.67 g/mol
Each mL of MYDCOMBI ophthalmic spray (sterile) contains: ACTIVES: Phenylephrine Hydrochloride 2.5% (25 mg) equivalent to 20.6 mg of phenylephrine base, Tropicamide 1% (10 mg); INACTIVE: Hydrochloric Acid and/or Sodium Hydroxide may be added to adjust pH (pH 4.8–5.2), Water for Injection; PRESERVATIVE: Benzalkonium Chloride 0.01% (0.1 mg).
Tropicamide, the anticholinergic component of MYDCOMBI, blocks the responses of the sphincter muscle of the iris, dilating the pupil (mydriasis). Phenylephrine hydrochloride, the alpha-1 adrenergic agonist component of MYDCOMBI, acts as a mydriatic agent by contracting the dilator muscle of the iris.
MYDCOMBI acts in 15 to 30 minutes with maximal mydriasis occurring in 20 to 90 minutes. Darker irides tend to dilate slower than lightly pigmented irides and to achieve maximal effect may require more doses than lighter irides.
Mydriasis will reverse spontaneously with time, with recovery after 3 to 8 hours. Complete recovery from mydriasis in some individuals may require 24 hours.
Two Phase 3 clinical trials were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of MYDCOMBI for achievement of mydriasis. The MIST-1 study was a prospective, double-masked, active-controlled, 3-period cross-over, superiority study to compare the pupil dilating effect of MYDCOMBI to tropicamide 1% and to phenylephrine 2.5%, with all solutions topically administered by the Optejet® Dispenser (N = 64 subjects; 128 eyes). The MIST-2 study was a prospective, multicenter, double-masked, placebo-controlled, 3-period crossover, superiority study to compare the pupil dilating effect of MYDCOMBI to placebo (eyewash solution), with both solutions topically administered by the Optejet Dispenser (N = 70 subjects; 140 eyes).
The primary efficacy endpoint for both studies was the mean change in 35-minute pupil diameter compared to baseline as measured by digital pupillometry in highly photopic conditions. Data from the 2 studies are presented in Table 1. At 35 minutes post-dose, the mean change in pupil diameter was 4.7 mm with MYDCOMBI, 4.1 mm with tropicamide, and 0.9 mm with phenylephrine in MIST-1, and was 4.8 mm with MYDCOMBI and 0.1 mm with placebo in MIST-2. MYDCOMBI was statistically superior to tropicamide administered alone and phenylephrine administered alone.
MYDCOMBI provided a clinically significant effect in the proportion of eyes achieving pupil diameter of ≥ 6 mm at 35-minute post-dose in 94% of eyes compared to 78% of eyes administered tropicamide alone and 1.6% of eyes administered phenylephrine alone, and 0% of eyes administered placebo. As shown in Figure 2, peak effect was measured at the 80-minute evaluation when the mean change from baseline was 5.2 mm. Treatment differences in mydriasis were observed as early as 20 minutes and still present at 180 minutes post-dose, the end of the protocol-specified observation period.
Figure 2: MIST-1 and MIST-2 pooled, mean pupil diameter vs measurement time, by treatment group. Vertical bars show 95% confidence interval for the mean at each point. Smooth curves are based on an 8 degrees of freedom (df) generalized additive model (GAM) smooth through time, adjusting for baseline pupil diameter. Confidence intervals are not adjusted for correlation.
MYDCOMBI is supplied as sterile, clear, colorless solution in a 2 mL vial enclosed in a dispenser cartridge. Each MYDCOMBI cartridge holds approximately 180 sprays.
