Prednisolone and moxifloxacin compositions and methods

Abstract

Provided here are new ophthalmologically suitable pharmaceutical compositions comprising an effective amount of a moxifloxacin compound and an effective amount of a prednisolone compound. In aspects, the compositions are stable suspensions, which maintain physical stability and chemical stability for extended periods of time (e.g., exhibiting no sustained flocculation, coagulation, or clumping after several months of storage under typical storage conditions). In aspects, the compositions are suspensions that include a suspension component comprising one or more suspension agents. In aspects, the suspension component includes an ionic suspension agent. In aspects, the composition also or alternatively comprises a non-ionic surfactant, non-ionic suspension agent, or both, or an agent that provides both functions. In aspects, such compositions further comprise an effective amount of a chelating agent/component. Further described are related compositions and methods of making and using such compositions, e.g., in the treatment of eye infections.
