CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Pharmacokinetics
Following a single bilateral 4-drop (total dose = 0.28 mL, 0.84 mg
ciprofloxacin, 0.28 mg
dexamethasone) topical otic dose of CIPRODEX® Otic to pediatric
patients after tympanostomy tube
insertion, measurable plasma concentrations of ciprofloxacin and
dexamethasone were observed at 6
hours following administration in 2 of 9 patients and 5 of 9 patients,
respectively.
Mean ± SD peak plasma concentrations of ciprofloxacin were 1.39 ±
0.880 ng/mL (n=9). Peak plasma
concentrations ranged from 0.543 ng/mL to 3.45 ng/mL and were on
average approximately 0.1% of
peak plasma concentrations achieved with an oral dose of 250-mg
. Peak plasma concentrations of
ciprofloxacin were observed within 15 minutes to 2 hours post dose
application.
