About VEVYE

What is this medication?

VEVYE is a prescription eye drop approved for the treatment of the signs and symptoms associated with dry eye disease, also known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca. This condition occurs when the eyes do not produce sufficient tears or when the quality of the tears is poor, leading to chronic inflammation and damage to the ocular surface. As a cyclosporine ophthalmic solution at a 0.1 percent concentration, it functions as a calcineurin inhibitor immunosuppressant designed to target the underlying inflammatory processes that contribute to dry eye symptoms.

What distinguishes this medication from other treatments is its use of a specialized water-free delivery system composed of semi-fluorinated alkanes. This formulation allows the active ingredient to be delivered to the eye without the need for added preservatives, oils, or surfactants that can sometimes cause additional irritation. By effectively reaching the ocular tissues and reducing inflammation, VEVYE helps to improve tear production and alleviate the persistent discomfort and blurred vision often experienced by those with chronic dry eye.

Adverse reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The most common adverse reaction following the use of VEVYE were instillation site reactions (8%). ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Harrow at 1-833-4HARROW(427769) or FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088 or www.fda.gov/medwatch . 6.1 Clinical Trials Experience Because clinical trials are conducted under widely varying conditions, adverse reaction rates observed in the clinical trials of a drug cannot be directly compared to rates in the clinical trials of another drug and may not reflect the rates observed in practice. In clinical trials with 738 subjects receiving at least 1 dose of VEVYE, the most common adverse reactions were instillation site reactions (8%) and temporary decreases in visual acuity (3%).
Use in pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of VEVYE administration in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. Oral administration of cyclosporine to pregnant rats or rabbits did not produce teratogenicity at clinically relevant doses VEVYE doses are approximately 4,700 times lower than recommended oral doses, with blood concentrations being undetectable after topical administration. Data Animal Data Oral administration of cyclosporine oral solution to pregnant rats or rabbits was teratogenic at maternally toxic doses of 30 mg/kg/day in rats and 100 mg/kg/day in rabbits, as indicated by increased pre- and postnatal mortality, reduced fetal weight and skeletal retardations. These doses (normalized to body weight) were approximately 7,250 and 48,000 times higher than the daily maximum recommended human ophthalmic dose (MRHOD) of 0.67 mcg/kg/day, respectively. No adverse embryofetal effects were observed in rats or rabbits receiving cyclosporine during organogenesis at oral doses up to 17 mg/kg/day or 30 mg/kg/day, respectively (approximately 4,100 and 14,500 times higher than the MRHOD, respectively). An oral dose of 45 mg/kg/day cyclosporine (approximately 10,900 times higher than MRHOD) administered to rats from Day 15 of pregnancy until Day 21 postpartum produced maternal toxicity and an increase in postnatal mortality in offspring. No adverse effects in mothers or offspring were observed at oral doses of up to 15 mg/kg/day (3600 times greater than MRHOD).
