Cyclomydril

CYCLOMYDRIL^® (cyclopentolate hydrochloride and phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) is a mydriatic prepared as a sterile topical ophthalmic solution. The active ingredients are represented by the chemical structures:

Established Name:
Cyclopentolate Hydrochloride

Chemical Name:
2-(Dimethylamino)ethyl 1 - hydroxy-α-phenylcyclopentaneacetate hydrochloride)

Molecular Formula:
C₁₇H₂₅NO₃ • HCl

Molecular Weight:
327.85 g/mol

Established Name:
Phenylephrine Hydrochloride

Chemical Name:
3-hydroxy-α[(methylamino)-methyl]-, Benzenemethanol, hydrochloride (R)-.

Molecular Formula:
C₉H₁₃NO₂ • HCl

Molecular Weight:
203.67 g/mol

Each mL of CYCLOMYDRIL^® (cyclopentolate hydrochloride and phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) contains:
Active: cyclopentolate hydrochloride 0.2%, phenylephrine hydrochloride 1%. Preservative: benzalkonium chloride 0.01%.
Inactives: edetate disodium, boric acid, hydrochloric acid and /or sodium carbonate (to adjust pH), purified water.

Cyclopentolate hydrochloride is an anticholinergic drug and phenylephrine hydrochloride is an adrenergic drug. This combination induces mydriasis that is greater than that of either drug alone at its respective concentration. The concentrations of cyclopentolate hydrochloride and phenylephrine hydrochloride have been selected to induce mydriasis with little accompanying cycloplegia. Heavily pigmented irides may require more doses than lightly pigmented irides.

For the production of mydriasis.

Do not use in patients with hypersensitivity to any component of this preparation.

FOR TOPICAL OPHTHALMIC USE ONLY. NOT FOR INJECTION. There have been reports of serious cardiovascular reactions, including ventricular arrhythmias and myocardial infarctions, in patients using higher concentrations of phenylephrine. These episodes, some fatal, have usually occurred in patients with pre-existing cardiovascular diseases. This preparation may cause central nervous system (CNS) disturbances. This is especially true in younger age groups, but may occur at any age, especially with the stronger solutions. Infants are especially prone to CNS and cardiopulmonary side effects from cyclopentolate.

Ocular

The following ocular adverse experiences have been associated with the use of CYCLOMYDRIL^® (cyclopentolate hydrochloride and phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution): increased intraocular pressure, burning/irritation upon instillation, photophobia, blurred vision and superficial punctate keratitis.

Nonocular

Use of cyclopentolate hydrochloride has been associated with psychotic reactions and behavioral disturbances in children. These disturbances include ataxia, incoherent speech, restlessness, hallucinations, hyperactivity, seizures, disorientation as to time and place. This drug produces reactions similar to those of other adrenergic and anticholinergic drugs; however, the central nervous system manifestations as noted above are most common. Other manifestations of adrenergic and anticholinergic topical ophthalmic drugs include tachycardia, hyperpyrexia, hypertension, vasodilation, urinary retention, diminished gastrointestinal motility, convulsion, bradycardia, apnea, necrotizing colitis and abdominal distention (in newborns and especially premature infants), skin rash, drowsiness, and decreased secretion in salivary and sweat glands, pharynx, bronchi and nasal passages. Severe manifestations of toxicity include coma, medullary paralysis and death. Systemic toxicity can result from topical application of sympathomimetic drugs: headache, blood pressure elevation, extrasystoles, tachycardia, syncope and cerebrovascular accidents have been reported.

Excessive dosage may produce behavioral disturbances, tachycardia, hyperpyrexia, hypertension, elevated intraocular pressure, vasodilation, urinary retention, diminished gastrointestinal motility and decreased secretion in salivary and sweat glands, pharynx, bronchi and nasal passages. Pulmonary oedema or cardiac arrest may occur due to phenylephrine toxicity.  Severe intoxication is characterized by central nervous system depression, coma, circulatory and respiratory failure, and death.
Patients exhibiting signs of overdosage should receive supportive care and monitoring.

Instill one drop in each eye every five to ten minutes. To minimize systemic absorption, apply pressure over the nasolacrimal sac for two to three minutes following instillation. Observe infants closely for at least 30 minutes.

CYCLOMYDRIL^® (cyclopentolate hydrochloride and phenylephrine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution) is supplied as a sterile solution in 2 mL and 5 mL, in plastic DROP-TAINER® dispensers.
