The present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions which are photostable and antimicrobially active comprising one or more medicinal agents and a stabilized ionized silver-based antimicrobial composition. The stabilized ionized silver-based antimicrobial composition comprises a stabilizing acyclic polyether polymer, cations, and anions present in excess with regard to the amount of cations. Methods for making and using the pharmaceutical compositions are also described. These pharmaceutical compositions are useful in the prevention and treatment of infections and diseases. |
