SPILL RESISTANT ANTIBIOTIC FORMULATIONS
The disclosure is directed to a pharmaceutical kit with a first set, a second set and a third set of components. The first set of components can be a carbomer in an aqueous vehicle, the second set of components can be an antibiotic, and the third set of components can be a neutralizing agent. In exemplary embodiments, the first, second and third sets of components can be mixed together to form a spill resistant composition.
1 . A pharmaceutical kit comprising a first set, a second set and a third set of components, wherein said first set of components comprises a carbomer in an aqueous vehicle, said second set of components comprises an antibiotic, said third set contains a neutralizing agent wherein when said first, second and third sets of components when mixed together form a spill resistant composition having a pH of about 4.6 to about 7.0.
2 . The kit of claim 1 wherein the antibiotic is selected from the group consisting of drugs from cephalasporins, beta-lactamase inhibitors, monobactams, beta-lactams, quinolones, macrolides, aminoglycosides, vancomycin, streptogramins oxazolindinones, alone or in combination.
3 . The kit of claim 1 wherein the antibiotic is selected from the group consisting of drugs from amoxicillin, cefdinir, azithromycin, erythromycin, clairthromycin, ciprofloxacin, cephalexin and combinations thereof.
4 . The kit of claim 1 wherein the first set of components in a squeezable container that is free of indentations and is smooth sided.
5 . The kit of claim 1 wherein the first set of components is an aqueous vehicle comprising, sucralose, sorbitol, a carbomer, glycerin, propylene glycol and butyl paraben.
6 . A process for preparing a spill resistant pharmaceutical composition comprising an antibiotic, a base component and a neutralizing solution wherein the process comprises the steps of adding the antibiotic to the base component to form a suspension or a solution and adding a neutralizing solution to a pH of between about pH of about 4.6 to about 7.0.
