DESCRIPTION
Polymyxin B sulfate and trimethoprim ophthalmic solution, USP is a
sterile antimicrobial solution for
topical ophthalmic use.
CHEMICAL NAMES: Trimethoprim sulfate,
2,4-Diamino-5-(3,4,5-trimethoxybenzyl) pyrimidine sulfate
(2:1), is a white, odorless, crystalline powder with a molecular
weight of 678.72 and the following
structural formula:
Polymyxin B sulfate is the sulfate salt of polymyxin B and B which are
produced by the growth of
_Bacillus polymyxa_ (Prazmowski) Migula (Fam. Bacillaceae). It has a
potency of not less than 6,000
polymyxin B units per mg, calculated on an anhydrous basis. The
structural formulae are:
CONTAINS: ACTIVES: polymyxin B sulfate 10,000 units/mL; trimethoprim
sulfate equivalent to 1 mg/mL.
PRESERVATIVE: benzalkonium chloride 0.04 mg/mL. INACTIVES: purified
water; sodium chloride; and
sulfuric acid. May also contain sodium hydroxide for pH adjustment. It
has pH of 4.0 to 6.2 and
osmolality of 270 to 310 mOsm/kg.
CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Trimethoprim is a synthetic antibacterial drug active against a wide
variety of aerobic gram-positive and
gram-negative ophthalmic pathogens. Trimethoprim blocks the production
of tetrahydrofolic acid from
dihydrofolic acid by binding to and reversibly inhibiting the enzyme
dihydrofolate reductase. This
binding is stronger for the bacterial enzyme than for the
corresponding mammalian enzyme, and

therefore, selectively interferes with bacterial biosynthesis of
nucleic acids and proteins.
Polymyxin B, a cyclic lipopeptide antibiotic, is bactericidal for a
variety of gram-negative organisms,
especially _Pseudomonas aeruginosa_. It increases the permeability of
the bacterial cell membrane by
interacting with the phospholipid components of the membrane.
