Mechanism of Action
Olopatadine is a histamine-1 (H1) receptor inhibitor. The antihistaminic activity of olopatadine has been documented in isolated tissues, animal models, and humans.
Mometasone furoate is a corticosteroid demonstrating potent anti-inflammatory activity. The precise mechanism of corticosteroid action on allergic rhinitis is not known. Corticosteroids have been shown to have a wide range of inhibitory effects on multiple cell types (eg, mast cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, macrophages, and lymphocytes) and mediators (eg, histamine, eicosanoids, leukotrienes, and cytokines) involved in inflammation.
