Method for treating allergic rhinitis with mometasone and olopatadine
The patent US12064442B2 outlines a method for treating allergic rhinitis and its associated symptoms through the nasal administration of a fixed-dose pharmaceutical composition. This composition combines mometasone furoate and olopatadine or its salt in specific weight ratios ranging from about 1:12 to about 1:53. The administration involves delivering 1 or 2 sprays per nostril at least once daily, with each spray containing approximately 600 mcg of olopatadine and between 25 mcg to 50 mcg of mometasone furoate. The formulation is designed to maintain a pH between 3.3 and 4.1 and is noted for its stability, with a total impurity content of no more than 1.0% after six months of storage under specified conditions.
Additionally, the patent specifies that the method can effectively reduce treatment-related adverse effects compared to the use of olopatadine alone, particularly addressing symptoms such as nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, itching, and sneezing. The claims also differentiate between seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis, emphasizing the versatility of the treatment. The composition is further characterized by its low crystallization of olopatadine hydrochloride, ensuring efficacy and stability over time. Overall, the patent presents a comprehensive approach to managing allergic rhinitis through a well-defined pharmaceutical formulation and administration protocol.
