Embodiment

[0069] [Clinical Trials]

[0070] The clinical test shown below was carried out, for the 1.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops of the current dosage 3 times a day and the 0.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops of the previous usage 3 times a day The effect (efficacy and safety) of the liquid group on bacterial conjunctivitis was studied comparatively.

[0071] (Preparation method of eye drops)

[0072] 1.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops and 0.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops are made by dissolving levofloxacin 1 / 2 hydrate in water, adding isotonic agent (glycerin) and pH regulator, and using Prepared according to general techniques (pH: 6.1-6.9).

[0073] (test procedure)

[0074] According to the dosage of 1 drop each time and 3 times a day, 1.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops or 0.5% (w / v) levofloxacin eye drops are used for patients with bacterial conjunctivitis. Use 14 days. Taking the start date of eye instillation, the 3rd day, 7th day and 14th day of eye instillation as the ref...

Abstract

Disclosed are a method and dosage of eye drops containing 1.5% (w / v) of levofloxacin, characterized in that, when the eye drops are dropped into the eyes thrice a day, bacterial conjunctivitis can be healed within a short period of time, compared with the conventional case where 0.5% (w / v) eye drops are used thrice a day, without increasing the incidence of side effects. Healing of an eye infection within a short period of time contributes to shortening of the exposure time of a pathogenic bacterium causing the eye infection to levofloxacin. As a result, it is expected that, when used in the aforesaid method and dosage, the levofloxacin-containing eye drops inhibit the appearance of a resistant strain which is caused by the prolonged usage of levofloxacin-containing eye drops in the conventional method or dosage. Moreover, it is confirmed that, when used in the aforesaid method and dosage, the levofloxacin-containing eye drops directly inhibit the appearance of resistance, which is caused by the short-term usage of levofloxacin-containing eye drops in the conventional method or dosage, in pathogenic bacteria causative of eye infections such as Staphylococcus aureus.

Description
