HUMEX ALLERGIC CONJUNCTIVITIS 2 %, eye drops, solution in single-dose container
Composition
Sodium cromoglicate....................................................................................................................................2 g
For 100 ml.
Sodium chloride, purified water.
Dosage and administration
Ophthalmic route
Wash hands thoroughly before proceeding with instillation.
Avoid contact of the tip with the eye or eyelids.
Each single-dose container contains a sufficient quantity of eye drops to treat both eyes.
Adults and children over 15 years of age : depending on the severity of symptoms, instil 1 drop of eye drops 2 to 6 times a day, at regular intervals, into the conjunctival sac of the affected eye, looking upward, and gently pulling the eyelid downward.
In children under 15 years of age, medical advice is necessary.
Discard the single-dose container after each use. Do not keep it for later use.
If concomitant treatment with another eye drop is used, wait 15 minutes between each instillation.
If there is no improvement after 7 days of treatment, it is necessary to seek medical advice.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to sodium cromoglicate or to any of the constituents of the eye drops.
Warnings and precautions
Precautions for use
DO NOT INJECT, DO NOT SWALLOW.
The eye drops must not be administered by peri- or intra-ocular injection.
Do not exceed the recommended dose.
In the absence of improvement or if symptoms persist, seek medical advice.
Wash hands thoroughly before instilling.
Avoid contact of the tip with the eye or eyelids.
This eye drop does not contain a preservative.
Discard the single-dose container after each use. Do not keep it for later use.
Furthermore, if symptoms persist or worsen, the patient should be seen by a doctor.
Fertility, pregnancy and breastfeeding
Pregnancy
Studies performed in animals have not demonstrated a teratogenic effect.
In the absence of a teratogenic effect in animals, a malformative effect in humans is not expected. Indeed, to date, substances responsible for malformations in humans have proven teratogenic in animals in well-conducted studies in two species.
In clinical practice, there is currently no sufficiently relevant data to assess a possible malformative or foetotoxic effect of sodium cromoglicate when administered during pregnancy.
Consequently, as a precautionary measure, it is preferable not to use sodium cromoglicate during pregnancy.
Breast-feeding
There is no data on the passage of sodium cromoglicate into breast milk.
However, given the absence of toxicity, breastfeeding is possible during treatment with this medicine.
Driving and using machines
A transient visual disturbance may be felt after instillation of the eye drops.
In this case, wait until the symptoms have ended before driving a vehicle or using a machine.
Adverse effects
Possible occurrence of:
• hypersensitivity reactions to sodium cromoglicate,
• transient visual discomfort after instillation of the eye drops.
Reporting of suspected adverse reactions
Reporting suspected adverse reactions after authorisation of the medicinal product is important. It allows continued monitoring of the benefit/risk balance of the medicinal product. Healthcare professionals are asked to report any suspected adverse reaction via the national reporting system: National Agency for the Safety of Medicines and Health Products (ANSM) and the network of Regional Centres of Pharmacovigilance - Website: https://signalement.social-sante.gouv.fr/.
Pharmacodynamics
Pharmacotherapeutic class: Other antiallergics, ATC code: S01GX01.
Sodium cromoglicate has recognised anti-allergic properties at the level of the mucous membranes; by stabilising the mast cell membrane, it prevents the release of the chemical mediators responsible for anaphylactic reactions.
Pharmacokinetics
Sodium cromoglicate is partly absorbed by the mucous membrane, resulting in a low systemic passage. It is not metabolised; it is excreted unchanged in bile and urine.
Special storage precautions
After opening the single-dose container: the product must be used immediately.
Discard the single-dose container after each use.
Do not keep for later use.
