CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
PHARMACOKINETICS: Serum, urine and tear concentrations of ofloxacin
were measured
in 30 healthy women at various time points during a ten-day course of
treatment with
ofloxacin ophthalmic solution. The mean serum ofloxacin concentration
ranged from 0.4
ng/mL to 1.9 ng/mL. Maximum ofloxacin concentration increased from 1.1
ng/mL on
day one to 1.9 ng/mL on day 11 after QID dosing for 10 1/2 days.
Maximum serum
ofloxacin concentrations after ten days of topical ophthalmic dosing
were more than
1000 times lower than those reported after standard oral doses of
ofloxacin.
Tear ofloxacin concentrations ranged from 5.7 to 31 mcg/g during the
40 minute period
following the last dose on day 11. Mean tear concentration measured
four hours after
topical ophthalmic dosing was 9.2 mcg/g.
Corneal tissue concentrations of 4.4 mcg/mL were observed four hours
after beginning
topical ocular application of two drops of ofloxacin ophthalmic
solution every 30
