DESCRIPTION
Aladay® MAX is a preparation of Olopatadine. Olopatadine is an anti-allergic compound which has been demonstrated to stabilize human conjunctival tissue mast cells, preventing the release of histamine and other inflammatory mediators. Olopatadine is a selective histamine H1-antagonist that inhibits Type I immediate hypersensitivity reactions. It has been shown to inhibit the release of pro-inflammatory mediators from human conjunctival mast and epithelial cells. Olopatadine has no significant effects on alpha-adrenergic, dopamine and muscarinic Type I and II receptors.
