Fill into a spray nasal dispenser with a solution volume of 2 mL. The composition comprises approximately 550 MRC-units active ingredient per milliliter, and the applicator delivers a quantity comprising 55 units per actuation. [Pg.95]


Astemi2ole (10) has further been modified into a series of 4-phenylcyclohexylamine compounds, resulting in the synthesis of cabastine, for example. Cabastine is a highly active compound and its geometric isomers are also active, demonstrating the stereoselectivity of histamine receptors toward chiral ligands. The > S, 4 R-levo antipode of cabastine was the most active, and therefore this isomer, levocabastine (13), has been chosen for further development. Because of high potency, levocabastine has been developed for topical appHcation such as eye drops and nasal spray. [Pg.139]

Lysine vasopressin is marketed in nasal spray form as an antidiuretic under the trademark Diapid (Sando2). [Pg.192]

Rhinitis is characterized by nasal stuffiness with partial or full obstmction, and itching of the nose, eyes, palate, or pharynx, sneezing, and rhinorrhoea. If left untreated it can lead to more serious respiratory diseases such as sinusitis or asthma. Although several types of dmgs are available for treatment, nasal spray topical corticosteroids are widely regarded as the reference standard in rhinitis therapy (250). [Pg.446]

Antihistamines are drags used to counteract the effects of histamine on body organs and structures. Examples of antihistamines include diphenhydramine (Benadryl), loratadine (Claritin), fexofenadine (Allegra), and cetirizine (Zyrtec). A new antihistamine, deslorata-dine (Clarinex), is die active metabolite of loratadine and is intended to eventually replace loratadine (Claritin). Topical corticosteroid nasal sprays such as fluticasone propionate (Flonase) or triamcinolone ace-tonide (Nasacort AQ) are also used for nasal allergy symptoms. See Chapter 56 for more information on die topical corticosteroids. [Pg.325]

Desmopressin may be given orally, intranasally, SC, or IV. The oral dose must be determined for each individual patient and adjusted according to the patient s response to therapy. When the drug is administered nasally, a nasal tube is used for administration. The nasal tube delivery system comes with a flexible calibrated plastic tube called a rhinyle. The solution is drawn into the rhinyle. One end is inserted into the nostril and the patient (if condition allows) blows the other end to deposit solution deep into the nasal cavity. A nasal spray pump may also be used. Most adults require 0.2 mL daily in two divided doses to control diabetes insipidus. The drug may also be administered via the SC route or direct IV injection. [Pg.520]

Educating the Patient and Family If lypressin or desmopressin is to be used in the form of a nasal spray or is to be instilled intranasally usingthe nasal tube delivery system, the nurse demonstrates the technique of instillation (see Fhtient and Family Teaching Checklist Self-Adnrinistering Nasal Vasopressin). The nurse includes illustrated patient instructions with the drug and reviews them with the patient. If possible, the nurse lias the patient demonstrate the technique of administration. The nurse should discuss the need to take the drug only as directed by the primary health care provider. The patient should not increase the dosage (ie, the number or frequency of sprays) unless advised to do so by the primary health care provider. [Pg.521]

Administration of oxytocin may result in fetal bradycardia, uterine rupture, uterine hypertonicity, nausea, vomiting, cardiac arrhythmias, and anaphylactic reactions. Serious water intoxication (fluid overload, fluid volume excess) may occur, particularly when the drug is administered by continuous infusion and the patient is receiving fluids by mouth. When used as a nasal spray, adverse reactions are rare. [Pg.561]

Educating the Patient and Family The treatment regimen is explained to the patient and family (when appropriate). The nurse answers any questions the patient may have regarding treatment. The patient is instructed to report any adverse reactions. The patient and family are informed of therapeutic response during administration of the drug. If nasal spray is to be used, the patient is taught proper use ... [Pg.563]

Nicotine nasal spray delivers nicotine through the nasal mucosa. One advantage of nicotine nasal spray is that it relieves tobacco cravings quickly. One study found that nicotine nasal spray was 2.6 times more likely to produce smoking cessation, compared with placebo, at 1 year (Sutherland et al. 1992). The active spray was also the most beneficial among highly dependent smokers (Sutherland et al. 1992). [Pg.319]

The nasal spray is available only by prescription. One spray to each nostril constitutes a dose. Although one dose delivers approximately 1 mg of nicotine. [Pg.319]
