MINIMS* HOMATROPINE HYDROBROMIDE 2%

Eye Drops
COMPOSITION:
(per dispensing unit of 0,5 mL)
Homatropine hydrobromide 10 mg.
PHARMACOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION:
A 15.4 Ophthalmic preparations: other
PHARMACOLOGICAL ACTION:
Homatropine hydrobromide has parasympatholytic properties similar to those of atropine,
but is much weaker. Mydriasis occurs within 15-30 minutes and passes off in 6-24 hours.
Mydriasis is readily controlled by physostigmine. In children homatropine does not usually
produce complete cycloplegia.
INDICATIONS:
Homatropine hydrobromide is used in ophthalmology as a mydriatic, and as a cycloplegic.
CONTRA-INDICATIONS:
Homatropine hydrobromide should not be administered to patients with closed-angle
glaucoma or to patients with a narrow angle between the iris and the cornea, since its use
may cause intra-ocular pressure to rise.
DOSAGE AND DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Adults and children: To be used as directed by the ophthalmologist. For simple dilation of the
pupil a 1% solution is usually adequate but for full paralysis of accommodation 3-4 drops of
a 2% solution may have to be instilled every 15 minutes for 1-2 hours.
SIDE EFFECTS AND SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS:
Homatropine hydrobromide should be used with caution in patients with prostatic
enlargement and in patients suffering from paralytic ileus or pyloric stenosis. Systemic
reactions may follow the absorption of homatropine hydrobromide from eye drops. Dryness
of the mouth with difficulty in swallowing, thirst, dilation of the pupils with loss of
accommodation and photophobia, increased intra-ocular pressure, flushing and dryness of
the skin, bradycardia followed by tachycardia, with palpitations and arrhythmias, a desire to
urinate with the inability to do so, as well as reduction in the tone and motility of the gastrointestinal tract leading to constipation. Vomiting, giddiness and staggering may occur.

Retrosternal pain may occur due to increased gastric reflux. Hypersensitivity may occur as
conjunctivitis or a skin rash.
KNOWN SYMPTOMS OF OVERDOSAGE AND PARTICULARS OF ITS TREATMENT:
Toxic doses cause tachycardia, rapid or stertorous respiration, hyperpyrexia, restlessness,
confusion and excitement, and hallucinations passing into delirium. A rash may appear on
the face and upper trunk. In severe intoxication, depression of the central nervous system
may occur with hypertension or with circulatory failure and respiratory depression.

DESCRIPTION:
Homatropine Hydrobromide ophthalmic solution is a sterile solution for
ophthalmic administration in drop form, having the following composition:
Plastic squeeze bottle
Homatropine Hydrobromide 20-50 mg/mL (cycloplegic-mydriatic) in a
buffered aqueous solution containing boric acid, potassium chloride, edetate
disodium and water for injection, preserved with benzalkonium chloride. The
chemical name is 1H, 3H-Tropan-3-o1mandelate (ester) hydrobromide. It
has the following chemical structure:

INACTIVE INGREDIENTS:
Boric Acid, Potassium Chloride, Edetate Disodium, and Water for Injection
USP.
Preservative: Benzalkonium Chloride USP 0.01% v/v
CLINICAL PHAMACOLOGY:
Homatropine Hydrobromide causes wide dilation of the pupil and
paralysis of accommodation. Dilation is more rapid than with atropine but
cycloplegia is not as pronounced and does not last as long.
INDICATIONS AND USAGE:
Homatropine Hydrobromide is indicated for treatment of iritis and
iridocyclitis, for relief of ciliary spasm, and also as an aid in refraction. It is
frequently employed as a cycloplegic and mydriatic in preoperative and
postoperative conditions.
CONTRAINDICATIONS:
Contraindicated in the presence of an anatomically narrow angle or in
individuals with primary glaucoma and in individuals hypersensitive to one or
more of the components of this preparation including the belladonna alkaloid
group.
WARNINGS:

In infants and pediatric patients use with extreme caution. Excessive use in
pediatric patients or certain individuals with a history of susceptibility to
belladonna alkaloids may produce systemic symptoms of homatropine
poisoning (see overdosage section).
PRECAUTIONS:
Caution should be exercised when driving with dilated pupils or when
engaging in hazardous activities. Parents of children should be cautious not
to get the drug into the childs mouth and to wash both the childs and their
hands after use of the drug.
If eye pain occurs from use of this medication, the patient should be advised
to discontinue use and see prescribing physician immediately as this may
indicate undiagnosed glaucoma. Use cautiously in elderly or hypertensive
patients.
To avoid excessive systemic absorption, the lacrimal sac should be
compressed by digital pressure for one minute after instillation.
Not for internal use. To prevent contaminating the dropper tip and solution,
care should be taken not to touch the eyelids or surrounding area with the
dropper tip of the bottle.
Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility:
There have been no long-term studies using homatropine in animals to
evaluate carcinogenic potential.
Pregnancy:
Pregnancy Category C. Animal reproduction studies have not been done with
homatropine. It is also not known whether homatropine can cause fetal harm
when administered to a pregnant woman or can affect reproduction capacity.
Homatropine should be given to a pregnant woman only if clearly needed.
Nursing Mothers:
Since homatropine is absorbed systemically and since it is detectable in very
small amounts in human milk, and because of the potential for serious
adverse reactions in nursing infants from homatropine, a decision should be
made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking into
account the importance of the drug to the mother.
PEDIATRIC USE:
Homatropine should not be used during the first three months of life due to a
possible association between the cycloplegia produced and the development
of the amblyopia.
Safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
ADVERSE REACTIONS:
Prolonged use may produce local irritation characterized by follicular
conjunctivitis, vascular congestion, edema, exudate, and eczematoid
dermatitis. Systemic homatropine toxicity is manifested by flushing and

dryness of the skin (a rash may be present in children), dryness of the

mouth, anhidrosis, blurred vision, photophobia, loss of neuromuscular
coordination (ataxic gait), a rapid and irregular pulse, fever, abdominal and
bladder distention, dysarthric quality of speech, and mental aberration
(hallucinosis) with recovery frequently followed by retrograde amnesia.
OVERDOSAGE:
When signs and symptoms of homatropine toxicity develop (see adverse
reactions section), physostigmine should be administered parenterally (for
dosage refer to Goodman & Gilman or other pharmacology reference). In
infants and pediatric patients, the body surface must be kept moist.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
Usual dosage is one or two drops of the 2% or 5% solution in the eye(s) two
or three times a day, modified at discretion of physician.
For refraction: One or two drops of the 2% solution every 10-15 minutes for 5
doses or one or two drops of the 5% solution repeated in 15 minutes,
modified at discretion of the physician.
KEEP THIS AND ALL DRUGS OUT OF THE REACH OF CHILDREN.
DO NOT USE IF IMPRINTED SEAL ON CAP IS TORN, BROKEN, OR MISSING.
HOW SUPPLIED:
5% solution: 5 mL plastic dropper tip squeeze bottle.
