Warnings and cautions 5 WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS To avoid the potential for eye injury and contamination, do not touch the vial tip to the eye or other surfaces. ( 5.1 ) 5.1 Potential for Eye Injury and Contamination To avoid the potential for eye injury and contamination, do not touch the vial tip to the eye or other surfaces. 5.2 Use with Contact Lenses TRYPTYR should not be administered while wearing contact lenses. If contact lenses are worn, they should be removed prior to administration of the solution. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes following administration of TRYPTYR. Pregnancy 8.1 Pregnancy Risk Summary There are no adequate and well-controlled studies on TRYPTYR in pregnant women. Systemic exposure to acoltremon from ocular administration is negligible [see Clinical Pharmacology ( 12.3 )] . Intravenous administration of acoltremon to pregnant rats and rabbits during organogenesis did not produce embryofetal toxicity at 806- and 2151-fold the maximum recommended human ocular dose (MRHOD) of acoltremon on a mg/m 2 basis ( see Data ) . All pregnancies have a risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the US general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects is 2 to 4%, and of miscarriage is 15 to 20%, of clinically recognized pregnancies. Data Animal Data In embryofetal developmental studies in pregnant rats and rabbits dosed by intravenous injection daily during organogenesis from gestation days 6-17 and gestation days 7-19, respectively, no maternal or fetal toxicity was observed at 806- and 2151-fold the MRHOD of acoltremon on a mg/m 2 basis.
