About YUVEZZI

What is this medication? Oriahnn is a prescription drug combination containing elagolix, estradiol, and norethindrone acetate. It is specifically approved for the treatment of heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids in premenopausal women. The medication works by decreasing the levels of certain hormones that trigger the growth of fibroids and the resulting heavy bleeding, while the hormonal add-back components help maintain bone health and alleviate menopausal-like symptoms. Because this medication can cause a decrease in bone mineral density, its use is typically restricted to a maximum duration of twenty-four months. It is not suitable for women with a history of osteoporosis, liver disease, or conditions that update the risk of blood clots. Patients are advised to consult with their doctor about their medical history and to use non-hormonal birth control while taking this treatment, as it is not a pregnancy prevention method.

( 2.1 ) 2.1 Recommended Dosage The recommended dosage of YUVEZZI is one drop in each eye once daily. 2.2 Administration Instructions Remove contact lenses prior to instillation of YUVEZZI. Wait 10 minutes after dosing before reinserting contact lenses. If more than one topical ophthalmic medication is being used, the medicines must be administered at least 5 minutes apart. One single-dose vial can be used to dose both eyes. Discard the open single-dose vial and any remaining contents immediately after use.
Contraindications
4 CONTRAINDICATIONS YUVEZZI is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to the active ingredients or to any of the excipients. Hypersensitivity. ( 4 )
Warnings and precautions
5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS Blurred Vision : Advise patients not to drive or operate machinery if vision is not clear (e.g., blurred vision). Exercise caution in night driving and other hazardous activities in poor illumination. ( 5.1 ) Risk of Retinal Detachment : Rare cases of retinal tear and detachment have been reported with miotics. Individuals with preexisting retinal disease are at increased risk. Therefore, examination of the retina is advised in all patients prior to initiation of therapy. Patients should be advised to seek immediate medical care with sudden onset of flashes of lights, floaters, or vision loss. ( 5.2 ) Iritis : Caution is advised in patients with iritis. ( 5.3 ) Potentiation of Vascular Insufficiency : Use with caution in patients with depression, cerebral or coronary insufficiency, Raynaud's phenomenon, orthostatic hypotension, or thromboangiitis obliterans. ( 5.4 ) 5.1 Blurred Vision Miotics may cause accommodative spasm. Advise patients to not drive or operate machinery if vision is not clear (e.g., blurred vision). In addition, patients may experience temporary dim or dark vision with miotics. Advise patients to exercise caution in night driving and other hazardous activities in poor illumination. 5.2 Risk of Retinal Detachment Rare cases of retinal tear and detachment have been reported with miotics. Individuals with pre-existing retinal disease are at increased risk. Examination of the retina is advised in all patients prior to the initiation of therapy. Advise patients to seek immediate medical care with sudden onset of flashes of lights, floaters, or vision loss. 5.3 Iritis Sequelae of ocular inflammation, i.e., adhesions (synechiae) between the iris and the lens, may be exacerbated with miotic use, therefore, YUVEZZI is not recommended to be used when iritis is present. 5.4 Potentiation of Vascular Insufficiency YUVEZZI may potentiate syndromes associated with vascular insufficiency. YUVEZZI should be used with caution in patients with depression, cerebral or coronary insufficiency, Raynaud's phenomenon, orthostatic hypotension, or thromboangiitis obliterans. 5.5 Potential for Eye Injury or Contamination To prevent eye injury or contamination, avoid touching the single-dose vial to the eye, eyelids, or to any other surface.
Drug interactions
7 DRUG INTERACTIONS Antihypertensives/cardiac glycosides may lower blood pressure. ( 7.1 ) Use with CNS depressants may result in an additive or potentiating effect. ( 7.2 ) Tricyclic antidepressants may potentially blunt the hypotensive effect of systemic clonidine. ( 7.3 ) Monoamine oxidase inhibitors may result in increased hypotension. ( 7.4 ) 7.1 Antihypertensives/Cardiac Glycosides Because brimonidine tartrate, a component of YUVEZZI, may reduce blood pressure, caution in using drugs such as antihypertensives and/or cardiac glycosides with YUVEZZI is advised. 7.2 CNS Depressants Although specific drug interaction studies have not been conducted with YUVEZZI, the possibility of an additive or potentiating effect with central nervous system (CNS) depressants (alcohol, opiates, barbiturates, sedatives, or anesthetics) should be considered. 7.3 Tricyclic Antidepressants Tricyclic antidepressants have been reported to blunt the hypotensive effect of systemic clonidine. It is not known whether the concurrent use of these agents with YUVEZZI in humans can lead to resulting interference with pupil constriction effects. Caution is advised in patients taking tricyclic antidepressants, which can affect the metabolism and uptake of circulating amines. 7.4 Monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors Monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors may theoretically interfere with the metabolism of brimonidine tartrate and potentially result in an increased systemic side effect such as hypotension. Caution is advised in patients taking MAO inhibitors which can affect the metabolism and uptake of circulating amines.
Adverse reactions
6 ADVERSE REACTIONS The following clinically significant adverse reactions are described elsewhere in labeling: Hypersensitivity [see Contraindications (4) ] Most common adverse reactions (incidence >5%) are eye pain upon instillation, visual impairment, eye irritation upon instillation, and headache. ( 6.1 ) To report SUSPECTED ADVERSE REACTIONS, contact Visus Therapeutics, Inc., at 1-888-735-0821 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. YUVEZZI was evaluated in 536 patients with presbyopia in two randomized, double-masked, controlled studies. BRIO™ I (NCT05270863) was a single-dose crossover study in which 178 patients received YUVEZZI. BRIO II (NCT05135286) included 358 patients who received YUVEZZI in the long-term safety portion of the study (up to 12 months duration, including a 6-month open-label extension). Adverse reactions reported in > 5% to 7% of participants were eye pain upon instillation and visual impairment. Adverse reactions reported in > 10% to 16% of participants were eye irritation upon instillation and headache. The majority of adverse events were mild, transient, and self-resolving.
Use in pregnancy
8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies of YUVEZZI administration in pregnant women to inform a drug-associated risk. Topical ocular administration of YUVEZZI to pregnant rats throughout organogenesis did not produce adverse effects up to 3 times the maximum recommended human ocular dose (MRHOD). Topical ocular administration of YUVEZZI to pregnant rabbits throughout organogenesis at approximately 3 times the MRHOD resulted in maternal toxicity with no effect on the fetus, including reduced maternal food consumption, body weight change, and related moribundity in 2/25 animals during the dosing period. Body weight and food consumption effects recovered after the dosing stopped ( see Data ). Because animal reproductive studies are not always predictive of human response, YUVEZZI should be administered during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the pregnant mother and fetus. The background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. However, the background risk in the U.S. general population of major birth defects is 2 to 4%, and of miscarriage is 15 to 20%, of clinically recognized pregnancies. Data Human Data No adequate and well-controlled trials of YUVEZZI have been conducted in pregnant women. Animal Data YUVEZZI was not teratogenic in embryofetal development studies when given by topical ocular administration to pregnant rats or rabbits throughout organogenesis at dose levels up to approximately 3 times the MRHOD of 1.815 mg/day carbachol and 0.066 mg/day brimonidine tartrate based on body surface area scaling. Topical ocular administration of YUVEZZI to pregnant rats on gestation days (GD) 6 to 17 at dose levels of up to 0.224 mg/day carbachol and 0.008 mg/day brimonidine tartrate (approximately 3 times the MRHOD, based on body surface area) produced no maternal toxicity or embryofetal effects. Topical ocular administration of YUVEZZI to pregnant rabbits on GD 7 to 19 at the dose level of 1.12 mg/day carbachol and 0.04 mg/day brimonidine tartrate (approximately 3 times the MRHOD, based on body surface area scaling) led to maternal toxicity with no embryofetal effects. Maternal findings included significantly reduced food consumption (41%) and body weight change (-87%), with related moribundity in 2/25 animals during the dosing period, compared with the vehicle control group. Body weight and food consumption effects resolved after a 10-day recovery period.
