BROMDAY vs BROMSITE
Comparing the clinical profiles, pharmacokinetic behaviors, and safety indices of these two therapeutic agents.
Brompheniramine is a first-generation alkylamine antihistamine that competitively antagonizes histamine at H1 receptor sites, thereby suppressing histamine-mediated allergic and vasodilatory responses.
Bromsite (bromfenac ophthalmic solution) is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that inhibits cyclooxygenase (COX) 1 and 2, thereby reducing prostaglandin synthesis in ocular tissues.
1-2 drops in each affected eye every 4-6 hours as needed, not to exceed 4 doses per day.
1-2 tablets (200-400 mg) orally 3-4 times daily as needed.

Terminal elimination half-life is approximately 10-15 hours in adults; prolonged in hepatic impairment.
Terminal elimination half-life 12–15 hours; prolonged in renal impairment (up to 30 hours).
Renal excretion (approximately 70%) as unchanged drug and metabolites; biliary/fecal excretion accounts for the remainder.
Primarily renal excretion of unchanged drug (~70%) and glucuronide conjugate (~20%); minor biliary/fecal elimination (~10%).
