Olopatadine is a medication used to decrease the symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis and allergic rhinitis (hay fever).[2] It is used as eye drops or as a nasal spray.[2] The eye drops general result in an improvement within half an hour.[2]

Common side effects include headache, sore throat, eye discomfort, and change in taste.[4][2] More significant side effects may include sleepiness.[2] It is unclear if use during pregnancy or breastfeeding is safe.[6] It is an antihistamine and mast cell stabilizer.[1][2]

Olopatadine was patented in 1986 and came into medical use in 1997.[7] It is available as a generic medication.[2] A 5 milliliter bottle of the eye drops in the United Kingdom costs the NHS less than £5 as of 2019.[4] In the United States the wholesale cost of this amount is about US$12.50.[8] In 2017, it was the 270th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than one million prescriptions.[9][10]
