description:
- "DESCRIPTION Ofloxacin Ophthalmic Solution USP, 0.3% is a sterile ophthalmic\
\ solution. It is a fluorinated carboxyquinolone anti-infective for topical\
\ ophthalmic use. Chemical Name: (\xB1)-9-Fluoro-2,3-dihydro-3-methyl-10-(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)-7-oxo-7\
\ H -pyrido [1,2,3- de ]-1,4-benzoxazine-6-carboxylic acid. Contains: Active:\
\ ofloxacin 0.3% (3 mg/mL); Preservative: benzalkonium chloride (0.005%); Inactives:\
\ sodium chloride and water for injection. May also contain hydrochloric acid\
\ and/or sodium hydroxide to adjust pH. Ofloxacin Ophthalmic Solution USP, 0.3%\
\ is unbuffered and formulated with a pH of 6.4 (range - 6.0 to 6.8). It has\
\ an osmolality of 300 mOsm/kg. Ofloxacin is a fluorinated 4-quinolone which\
\ differs from other fluorinated 4-quinolones in that there is a six member\
\ (pyridobenzoxazine) ring from positions 1 to 8 of the basic ring structure.\

clinical_pharmacology:
- 'CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Pharmacokinetics: Serum, urine and tear concentrations
of ofloxacin were measured in 30 healthy women at various time points during
a ten-day course of treatment with ofloxacin ophthalmic solution. The mean serum
ofloxacin concentration ranged from 0.4 ng/mL to 1.9 ng/mL. Maximum ofloxacin
concentration increased from 1.1 ng/mL on day one to 1.9 ng/mL on day 11 after
QID dosing for 10 1/2 days. Maximum serum ofloxacin concentrations after ten
days of topical ophthalmic dosing were more than 1000 times lower than those
reported after standard oral doses of ofloxacin. Tear ofloxacin concentrations
ranged from 5.7 to 31 mcg/g during the 40 minute period following the last dose
on day 11. Mean tear concentration measured four hours after topical ophthalmic
dosing was 9.2 mcg/g. Corneal tissue concentrations of 4.4 mcg/mL were observed
four hours after beginning topical ocular application of two drops of ofloxacin
ophthalmic solution every 30 minutes. Ofloxacin was excreted in the urine primarily
unmodified. Microbiology: Ofloxacin has in vitro activity against a broad range
of gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Ofloxacin
is bactericidal at concentrations equal to or slightly greater than inhibitory
concentrations. Ofloxacin is thought to exert a bactericidal effect on susceptible
bacterial cells by inhibiting DNA gyrase, an essential bacterial enzyme which
is a critical catalyst in the duplication, transcription, and repair of bacterial
DNA. Cross-resistance has been observed between ofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones.
There is generally no cross-resistance between ofloxacin and other classes of
antibacterial agents such as beta-lactams or aminoglycosides. Ofloxacin has
been shown to be active against most strains of the following organisms both
in vitro and clinically, in conjunctival and/or corneal ulcer infections (see
INDICATIONS AND USAGE ). *Efficacy for this organism was studied in fewer than
10 infections AEROBES, GRAM-POSITIVE: AEROBES, GRAM-NEGATIVE: ANAEROBIC SPECIES:
Staphylococcus aureus Enterobacter cloacae Propionibacterium acnes Staphylococcus
epidermidis Haemophilus influenzae Streptococcus pneumoniae Proteus mirabilis
Pseudomonas aeruginosa Serratia marcescens* The safety and effectiveness of
ofloxacin ophthalmic solution in treating ophthalmologic infections due to the
following organisms have not been established in adequate and well-controlled
clinical trials. Ofloxacin ophthalmic solution has been shown to be active in
vitro against most strains of these organisms but the clinical significance
in ophthalmologic infections is unknown. AEROBES, GRAM-POSITIVE: AEROBES, GRAM-NEGATIVE:

fluorescens Shigella sonnei Clinical Studies: Conjunctivitis: In a randomized,
double-masked, multi-center clinical trial, ofloxacin ophthalmic solution was
superior to its vehicle after 2 days of treatment in patients with conjunctivitis
and positive conjunctival cultures. Clinical outcomes for the trial demonstrated
a clinical improvement rate of 86% (54/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus
72% (48/67) for the placebo treated group after 2 days of therapy. Microbiological
outcomes for the same clinical trial demonstrated an eradication rate for causative
pathogens of 65% (41/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus 25% (17/67)
for the vehicle treated group after 2 days of therapy. Please note that microbiologic
eradication does not always correlate with clinical outcome in anti-infective
trials. Corneal ulcers: In a randomized, double-masked, multi-center clinical
trial of 140 subjects with positive cultures, ofloxacin ophthalmic solution
treated subjects had an overall clinical success rate (complete re-epithelialization
and no progression of the infiltrate for two consecutive visits) of 82% (61/74)
compared to 80% (53/66) for the fortified antibiotic group, consisting of 1.5%
tobramycin and 10% cefazolin solutions. The median time to clinical success
was 11 days for the ofloxacin treated group and 10 days for the fortified treatment
group.'

- 'Pharmacokinetics: Serum, urine and tear concentrations of ofloxacin were measured
in 30 healthy women at various time points during a ten-day course of treatment
with ofloxacin ophthalmic solution. The mean serum ofloxacin concentration ranged
from 0.4 ng/mL to 1.9 ng/mL. Maximum ofloxacin concentration increased from
1.1 ng/mL on day one to 1.9 ng/mL on day 11 after QID dosing for 10 1/2 days.
Maximum serum ofloxacin concentrations after ten days of topical ophthalmic
dosing were more than 1000 times lower than those reported after standard oral
doses of ofloxacin. Tear ofloxacin concentrations ranged from 5.7 to 31 mcg/g
during the 40 minute period following the last dose on day 11. Mean tear concentration
measured four hours after topical ophthalmic dosing was 9.2 mcg/g. Corneal tissue
concentrations of 4.4 mcg/mL were observed four hours after beginning topical
ocular application of two drops of ofloxacin ophthalmic solution every 30 minutes.
Ofloxacin was excreted in the urine primarily unmodified.'
microbiology:
- 'Microbiology: Ofloxacin has in vitro activity against a broad range of gram-positive
and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Ofloxacin is bactericidal
at concentrations equal to or slightly greater than inhibitory concentrations.
Ofloxacin is thought to exert a bactericidal effect on susceptible bacterial
cells by inhibiting DNA gyrase, an essential bacterial enzyme which is a critical
catalyst in the duplication, transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA. Cross-resistance
has been observed between ofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones. There is generally
no cross-resistance between ofloxacin and other classes of antibacterial agents
such as beta-lactams or aminoglycosides. Ofloxacin has been shown to be active
against most strains of the following organisms both in vitro and clinically,
in conjunctival and/or corneal ulcer infections (see INDICATIONS AND USAGE ).

clinical_studies:
- 'Clinical Studies: Conjunctivitis: In a randomized, double-masked, multi-center
clinical trial, ofloxacin ophthalmic solution was superior to its vehicle after
2 days of treatment in patients with conjunctivitis and positive conjunctival
cultures. Clinical outcomes for the trial demonstrated a clinical improvement
rate of 86% (54/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus 72% (48/67) for the
placebo treated group after 2 days of therapy. Microbiological outcomes for
the same clinical trial demonstrated an eradication rate for causative pathogens
of 65% (41/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus 25% (17/67) for the vehicle
treated group after 2 days of therapy. Please note that microbiologic eradication
does not always correlate with clinical outcome in anti-infective trials. Corneal
ulcers: In a randomized, double-masked, multi-center clinical trial of 140 subjects
with positive cultures, ofloxacin ophthalmic solution treated subjects had an
overall clinical success rate (complete re-epithelialization and no progression
of the infiltrate for two consecutive visits) of 82% (61/74) compared to 80%
(53/66) for the fortified antibiotic group, consisting of 1.5% tobramycin and
10% cefazolin solutions. The median time to clinical success was 11 days for
the ofloxacin treated group and 10 days for the fortified treatment group.'

contraindications:
- CONTRAINDICATIONS Ofloxacin ophthalmic solution is contraindicated in patients
with a history of hypersensitivity to ofloxacin, to other quinolones, or to
any of the components in this medication (see WARNINGS ).
warnings:
- WARNINGS NOT FOR INJECTION. Ofloxacin ophthalmic solution should not be injected
subconjunctivally, nor should it be introduced directly into the anterior chamber
of the eye. There are rare reports of anaphylactic reaction/shock and fatal
hypersensitivity reactions in patients receiving systemic quinolones, some following
the first dose, including ofloxacin. Some reactions were accompanied by cardiovascular
collapse, loss of consciousness, angioedema (including laryngeal, pharyngeal
or facial edema), airway obstruction, dyspnea, urticaria, and itching. A rare
occurrence of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, which progressed to toxic epidermal
necrolysis, has been reported in a patient who was receiving topical ophthalmic
ofloxacin. If an allergic reaction to ofloxacin occurs, discontinue the drug.
Serious acute hypersensitivity reactions may require immediate emergency treatment.
Oxygen and airway management, including intubation should be administered as
clinically indicated.
precautions:
- 'PRECAUTIONS General: As with other anti-infectives, prolonged use may result
in overgrowth of nonsusceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection
occurs discontinue use and institute alternative therapy. Whenever clinical
judgment dictates, the patient should be examined with the aid of magnification,
such as slit lamp biomicroscopy and, where appropriate, fluorescein staining.
Ofloxacin should be discontinued at the first appearance of a skin rash or any
other sign of hypersensitivity reaction. The systemic administration of quinolones,
including ofloxacin, has led to lesions or erosions of the cartilage in weight-bearing
joints and other signs of arthropathy in immature animals of various species.
Ofloxacin, administered systemically at 10 mg/kg/day in young dogs (equivalent
to 110 times the maximum recommended daily adult ophthalmic dose) has been associated
with these types of effects. Information for Patients: Avoid contaminating the
applicator tip with material from the eye, fingers or other source. Systemic
quinolones, including ofloxacin, have been associated with hypersensitivity
reactions, even following a single dose. Discontinue use immediately and contact
your physician at the first sign of a rash or allergic reaction. Drug Interactions:
Specific drug interaction studies have not been conducted with ofloxacin ophthalmic
solution. However, the systemic administration of some quinolones has been shown
to elevate plasma concentrations of theophylline, interfere with the metabolism
of caffeine, and enhance the effects of the oral anticoagulant warfarin and
its derivatives, and has been associated with transient elevations in serum
creatinine in patients receiving cyclosporine concomitantly. Carcinogenesis,
Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility: Long term studies to determine the carcinogenic
potential of ofloxacin have not been conducted. Ofloxacin was not mutagenic
in the Ames test, in vitro and in vivo cytogenic assay, sister chromatid exchange
assay (Chinese hamster and human cell lines), unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS)
assay using human fibroblasts, the dominant lethal assay, or mouse micronucleus
assay. Ofloxacin was positive in the UDS test using rat hepatocyte, and in the
mouse lymphoma assay. In fertility studies in rats, ofloxacin did not affect
male or female fertility or morphological or reproductive performance at oral
dosing up to 360 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 4000 times the maximum recommended
daily ophthalmic dose). Pregnancy: Teratogenic Effects: Ofloxacin has been shown
to have an embryocidal effect in rats and in rabbits when given in doses of
810 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 9000 times the maximum recommended daily ophthalmic
dose) and 160 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 1800 times the maximum recommended daily
ophthalmic dose). These dosages resulted in decreased fetal body weight and
increased fetal mortality in rats and rabbits, respectively. Minor fetal skeletal
variations were reported in rats receiving doses of 810 mg/kg/day. Ofloxacin
has not been shown to be teratogenic at doses as high as 810 mg/kg/day and 160
mg/kg/day when administered to pregnant rats and rabbits, respectively. Nonteratogenic
Effects: Additional studies in rats with doses up to 360 mg/kg/day during late
gestation showed no adverse effect on late fetal development, labor, delivery,
lactation, neonatal viability, or growth of the newborn. There are, however,
no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Ofloxacin ophthalmic
solution should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies
the potential risk to the fetus. Nursing Mothers: In nursing women a single
200 mg oral dose resulted in concentrations of ofloxacin in milk which were
similar to those found in plasma. It is not known whether ofloxacin is excreted
in human milk following topical ophthalmic administration. Because of the potential
for serious adverse reactions from ofloxacin in nursing infants, a decision
should be made whether to discontinue nursing or to discontinue the drug, taking
into account the importance of the drug to the mother. Pediatric use: Safety
and effectiveness in infants below the age of one year have not been established.
Quinolones, including ofloxacin, have been shown to cause arthropathy in immature
animals after oral administration; however, topical ocular administration of
ofloxacin to immature animals has not shown any arthropathy. There is no evidence
that the ophthalmic dosage form of ofloxacin has any effect on weight bearing
joints. Geriatric use: No overall differences in safety or effectiveness have
been observed between elderly and younger patients.'

| ['ADVERSE REACTIONS Ophthalmic use: The most frequently reported drug-related adverse reaction was transient ocular burning or discomfort. Other reported reactions include stinging, redness, itching, chemical conjunctivitis/keratitis, ocular/periocular/facial edema, foreign body sensation, photophobia, blurred vision, tearing, dryness, and eye pain. Rare reports of dizziness and nausea have been received. Refer to WARNINGS for additional adverse reactions.'] | ['Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility: Long term studies to determine the carcinogenic potential of ofloxacin have not been conducted. Ofloxacin was not mutagenic in the Ames test, in vitro and in vivo cytogenic assay, sister chromatid exchange assay (Chinese hamster and human cell lines), unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) assay using human fibroblasts, the dominant lethal assay, or mouse micronucleus assay. Ofloxacin was positive in the UDS test using rat hepatocyte, and in the mouse lymphoma assay. In fertility studies in rats, ofloxacin did not affect male or female fertility or morphological or reproductive performance at oral dosing up to 360 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 4000 times the maximum recommended daily ophthalmic dose).'] | ['CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Pharmacokinetics: Serum, urine and tear concentrations of ofloxacin were measured in 30 healthy women at various time points during a ten-day course of treatment with ofloxacin ophthalmic solution. The mean serum ofloxacin concentration ranged from 0.4 ng/mL to 1.9 ng/mL. Maximum ofloxacin concentration increased from 1.1 ng/mL on day one to 1.9 ng/mL on day 11 after QID dosing for 10 1/2 days. Maximum serum ofloxacin concentrations after ten days of topical ophthalmic dosing were more than 1000 times lower than those reported after standard oral doses of ofloxacin. Tear ofloxacin concentrations ranged from 5.7 to 31 mcg/g during the 40 minute period following the last dose on day 11. Mean tear concentration measured four hours after topical ophthalmic dosing was 9.2 mcg/g. Corneal tissue concentrations of 4.4 mcg/mL were observed four hours after beginning topical ocular application of two drops of ofloxacin ophthalmic solution every 30 minutes. Ofloxacin was excreted in the urine primarily unmodified. Microbiology: Ofloxacin has in vitro activity against a broad range of gram-positive and gram-negative aerobic and anaerobic bacteria. Ofloxacin is bactericidal at concentrations equal to or slightly greater than inhibitory concentrations. Ofloxacin is thought to exert a bactericidal effect on susceptible bacterial cells by inhibiting DNA gyrase, an essential bacterial enzyme which is a critical catalyst in the duplication, transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA. Cross-resistance has been observed between ofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones. There is generally no cross-resistance between ofloxacin and other classes of antibacterial agents such as beta-lactams or aminoglycosides. Ofloxacin has been shown to be active against most strains of the following organisms both in vitro and clinically, in conjunctival and/or corneal ulcer infections (see INDICATIONS AND USAGE ). *Efficacy for this organism was studied in fewer than 10 infections AEROBES, GRAM-POSITIVE: AEROBES, GRAM-NEGATIVE: ANAEROBIC SPECIES: Staphylococcus aureus Enterobacter cloacae Propionibacterium acnes Staphylococcus epidermidis Haemophilus influenzae Streptococcus pneumoniae Proteus mirabilis Pseudomonas aeruginosa Serratia marcescens* The safety and effectiveness of ofloxacin ophthalmic solution in treating ophthalmologic infections due to the following organisms have not been established in adequate and well-controlled clinical trials. Ofloxacin ophthalmic solution has been shown to be active in vitro against most strains of these organisms but the clinical significance in ophthalmologic infections is unknown.

Clinical outcomes for the trial demonstrated a clinical improvement rate of 86% (54/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus 72% (48/67) for the placebo treated group after 2 days of therapy. Microbiological outcomes for the same clinical trial demonstrated an eradication rate for causative pathogens of 65% (41/63) for the ofloxacin treated group versus 25% (17/67) for the vehicle treated group after 2 days of therapy. Please note that microbiologic eradication does not always correlate with clinical outcome in anti-infective trials. Corneal ulcers: In a randomized, double-masked, multi-center clinical trial of 140 subjects with positive cultures, ofloxacin ophthalmic solution treated subjects had an overall clinical success rate (complete re-epithelialization and no progression of the infiltrate for two consecutive visits) of 82% (61/74) compared to 80% (53/66) for the fortified antibiotic group, consisting of 1.5% tobramycin and 10% cefazolin solutions.

However, the systemic administration of some quinolones has been shown to elevate plasma concentrations of theophylline, interfere with the metabolism of caffeine, and enhance the effects of the oral anticoagulant warfarin and its derivatives, and has been associated with transient elevations in serum creatinine in patients receiving cyclosporine concomitantly.'] | 20230905 | ['General: As with other anti-infectives, prolonged use may result in overgrowth of nonsusceptible organisms, including fungi. If superinfection occurs discontinue use and institute alternative therapy. Whenever clinical judgment dictates, the patient should be examined with the aid of magnification, such as slit lamp biomicroscopy and, where appropriate, fluorescein staining.

Ofloxacin is bactericidal at concentrations equal to or slightly greater than inhibitory concentrations. Ofloxacin is thought to exert a bactericidal effect on susceptible bacterial cells by inhibiting DNA gyrase, an essential bacterial enzyme which is a critical catalyst in the duplication, transcription, and repair of bacterial DNA. Cross-resistance has been observed between ofloxacin and other fluoroquinolones. There is generally no cross-resistance between ofloxacin and other classes of antibacterial agents such as beta-lactams or aminoglycosides. Ofloxacin has been shown to be active against most strains of the following organisms both in vitro and clinically, in conjunctival and/or corneal ulcer infections (see INDICATIONS AND USAGE ). *Efficacy for this organism was studied in fewer than 10 infections AEROBES, GRAM-POSITIVE: AEROBES, GRAM-NEGATIVE: ANAEROBIC SPECIES: Staphylococcus aureus Enterobacter cloacae Propionibacterium acnes Staphylococcus epidermidis Haemophilus influenzae Streptococcus pneumoniae Proteus mirabilis Pseudomonas aeruginosa Serratia marcescens* The safety and effectiveness of ofloxacin ophthalmic solution in treating ophthalmologic infections due to the following organisms have not been established in adequate and well-controlled clinical trials.

If superinfection occurs discontinue use and institute alternative therapy. Whenever clinical judgment dictates, the patient should be examined with the aid of magnification, such as slit lamp biomicroscopy and, where appropriate, fluorescein staining.

Systemic quinolones, including ofloxacin, have been associated with hypersensitivity reactions, even following a single dose. Discontinue use immediately and contact your physician at the first sign of a rash or allergic reaction. Drug Interactions: Specific drug interaction studies have not been conducted with ofloxacin ophthalmic solution. However, the systemic administration of some quinolones has been shown to elevate plasma concentrations of theophylline, interfere with the metabolism of caffeine, and enhance the effects of the oral anticoagulant warfarin and its derivatives, and has been associated with transient elevations in serum creatinine in patients receiving cyclosporine concomitantly. Carcinogenesis, Mutagenesis, Impairment of Fertility: Long term studies to determine the carcinogenic potential of ofloxacin have not been conducted. Ofloxacin was not mutagenic in the Ames test, in vitro and in vivo cytogenic assay, sister chromatid exchange assay (Chinese hamster and human cell lines), unscheduled DNA synthesis (UDS) assay using human fibroblasts, the dominant lethal assay, or mouse micronucleus assay. Ofloxacin was positive in the UDS test using rat hepatocyte, and in the mouse lymphoma assay. In fertility studies in rats, ofloxacin did not affect male or female fertility or morphological or reproductive performance at oral dosing up to 360 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 4000 times the maximum recommended daily ophthalmic dose). Pregnancy: Teratogenic Effects: Ofloxacin has been shown to have an embryocidal effect in rats and in rabbits when given in doses of 810 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 9000 times the maximum recommended daily ophthalmic dose) and 160 mg/kg/day (equivalent to 1800 times the maximum recommended daily ophthalmic dose). These dosages resulted in decreased fetal body weight and increased fetal mortality in rats and rabbits, respectively. Minor fetal skeletal variations were reported in rats receiving doses of 810 mg/kg/day. Ofloxacin has not been shown to be teratogenic at doses as high as 810 mg/kg/day and 160 mg/kg/day when administered to pregnant rats and rabbits, respectively. Nonteratogenic Effects: Additional studies in rats with doses up to 360 mg/kg/day during late gestation showed no adverse effect on late fetal development, labor, delivery, lactation, neonatal viability, or growth of the newborn.
