| abstract |
The present invention is directed to the provision of multi-dose, ophthalmic compositions. The compositions possess sufficient antimicrobial activity to satisfy USP preservative efficacy requirements, as well as similar preservative standards (e.g., EP and JP). The compositions include a balance of ingredients that allow for the formation of ophthalmic compositions that include an anionic drug and exhibit desired characteristics such as stability, preservation efficacy, desired pH, desired osmolality, combinations thereof or the like. |
