CORTICOSTEROID / ANTIBACTERIAL
ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
Prednisolone acetate is a potent synthetic corticosteroid with
anti-inflammatory properties, useful in the treatment
of inflammatory conditions of the eye, particularly the anterior
segment. Corticosteroids suppress the inflammatory
response to a variety of agents. Since they may inhibit the body’s
defense mechanism against infection. A
concomitant antibacterial drug may be used when there is the risk of
ocular infection. Corticosteroids probably
also delay healing.
Sulfacetamide sodium is a sulfonamide with bacteriostatic action,
except at very high concentrations as may
occur with ophthalmic use, when it may be bactericidal. It interferes
with the utilization of para-aminobenzoic acid
by bacteria, thus preventing the essential biosynthesis of folic acid,
and inhibiting growth of a wide variety of gram-
negative and gram-positive bacteria. It is particularly suited to the
eye because it is freely soluble in water and
less alkaline, and therefore less irritating to the eye, than other
sulfonamides.
NON-MEDICINAL INGREDIENTS
Benzalkonium Chloride 0.025%, Disodium Edetate. Hydroxypropyl
Methylcellulose, Polysorbate 80, Sodium
Phosphate Dibasic, Sodium Phosphate Monobasic, Sodium Thiosulphate and
Purified Water.
INDICATIONS
For steroid-responsive inflammatory ocular conditions for which a
corticosteroid is indicated and where bacterial
infection or risk of bacterial infection exists.
Ocular steroids are indicated in inflammatory conditions of the
palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea, and
anterior segment of the globe s
