POLYMYXIN B SULFATE AND TRIMETHOPRIM SULFATE- POLYMYXIN B SULFATE, TRIMETHOPRIM SULFATE SOLUTION/ DROPS A-S MEDICATION SOLUTIONS ---------- POLYMYXIN B SULFATE AND TRIMETHOPRIM OPHTHALMIC SOLUTION, USP S TERILE 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 1 2 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.
