  • Use of Topical Bromfenac for Treating Ocular Pain and Inflammation Beyond Cataract Surgery: a Review of Published Studies
    Clinical Ophthalmology Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article REVIEW Use of topical bromfenac for treating ocular pain and inflammation beyond cataract surgery: a review of published studies This article was published in the following Dove Press journal: Clinical Ophthalmology Barry A Schechter Abstract: Topical ophthalmic nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are com- monly used to treat postoperative inflammation and pain following cataract surgery and for Cornea and Cataract Service, Florida Eye Microsurgical Institute, Boynton Beach, treatment and prophylaxis of pseudophakic cystoid macular edema (CME). Bromfenac is a FL, USA brominated NSAID with strong in vitro anti-inflammatory potency. Like other ophthalmic NSAIDs, bromfenac is often used outside of the cataract surgery setting. This paper provides an overview of bromfenac’s preclinical ocular pharmacology and pharmacokinetics, followed by a review of 23 published clinical studies in which various marketed bromfenac formula- tions were used for conditions other than cataract surgery or pseudophakic CME. These include: post-refractive eye surgery; macular edema associated with diabetes, uveitis, or fl For personal use only. retinal vein occlusion; in ammation associated with age-related macular degeneration; pain related to intravitreal injections; and other ocular anterior segment and surface disorders with an inflammatory component. The published evidence reviewed supports the safety and effectiveness of bromfenac in these additional ophthalmic indications. Bromfenac was well tolerated when given alone or in combination with intravitreal anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents, topical corticosteroids, or topical mast-cell stabilizers. The most common adverse event reported was ocular irritation. No serious adverse events (ie, corneal epithelial disorders) were reported, although the majority of studies did not systematically evaluate potential side effects.

Br J Ophthalmol 2003;87:297–301 Aim: To investigate the effects of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) ophthalmic solution on latanoprost induced intraocular pressure (IOP) reduction using normal volunteers. Methods: This study was conducted as a prospective and observer masked clinical trial. 13 normal volunteers were enrolled. After measurement of basal IOP and ophthalmic examination, latanoprost ophthalmic solution was initially administered to both eyes once daily. Four weeks later, an NSAID ophthalmic solution, sodium 2-amino-3-(4-bromobenzoyl) phenylacetate sesquihydrate (refer to bromfenac sodium hydrate), was co-administered to one randomly selected eye (NSAID group) twice daily for 2 weeks. The other eye was employed as a control (non-NSAID group). After withdrawal of the NSAID ophthalmic solution, latanoprost ophthalmic solution was continuously administered for another 2 weeks and was then withdrawn. After a 4 week washout, only bromfenac sodium hydrate See end of article for authors’ affiliations ophthalmic solution was administered to the eyes of the NSAID group for 2 weeks.

Human: 0.07% & 0.09% ophthalmic solution in a dropper bottle. This information sheet does not contain all available information for this medication. It is to help answer commonly asked questions and help you give the medication safely and effectively to your animal. If you have other questions or need more information about this medication, contact your veterinarian or pharmacist. Key Information Used to decrease inflammation in the eye. Use as advised to avoid contamination of the medication. Keep cap tightly closed when not in use. Wait 5 minutes after applying this medication before applying any other medications to the eye. Store in the refrigerator or at room temperature away from moisture and sunlight; do not freeze. Do not use if the color changes, becomes cloudy, or if particles are seen in the solution. Discard compounded gels on the discard date indicated by the compounding pharmacist. How is this medication useful? Bromfenac is used to treat inflammation of the eye (eg, after cataract surgery). It works by inhibiting substances called prostaglandins that cause inflammation. This drug may also be used to treat horses with moon blindness (ie, recurrent uveitis). The FDA (U.S. Food & Drug Administration) has approved this drug for use humans but not in animals. The FDA allows veterinarians to prescribe products containing this drug in different species or for other conditions in certain situations.

Please see additional Indications and Usage information on adjacent page, including list of indicated organisms. RP0915_BL Zylet.indd 2 8/12/15 1:38 PM INDICATIONS AND USAGE (continued) Ocular steroids are indicated in infl ammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea and anterior segment of the globe such as allergic conjunctivitis, acne rosacea, superfi cial punctate keratitis, herpes zoster keratitis, iritis, cyclitis, and where the inherent risk of steroid use in certain infective conjunctivitides is accepted to obtain a diminution in edema and infl ammation. They are also indicated in chronic anterior uveitis and corneal injury from chemical, radiation or thermal burns, or penetration of foreign bodies. The use of a combination drug with an anti-infective component is indicated where the risk of superfi cial ocular infection is high or where there is an expectation that potentially dangerous numbers of bacteria will be present in the eye.

We describe the in vitro antibacterial properties of the NSAIDs carprofen, bromfenac, and vedaprofen, and show that these NSAIDs inhibit the Escherichia coli DNA polymerase III β subunit, an essential interaction hub that acts as a mobile tether on DNA for many essential partner proteins in DNA replication and repair.

    Bromfenac Eye Drops 0.09% COMPOSITION Each mL contains: Bromfenac Sodium equivalent to Bromfenac 0.09% Benzalkonium chloride Solution IP 0.01% w/v (As preservative) Aqueous Buffered Vehicle q.s. DESCRIPTION OCUBRO (Bromfenac) Eye Drops 0.09% is a sterile, topical, nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drug (NSAID) for ophthalmic use. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY Mechanism of Action Prostaglandins have been shown in many animal models to be mediators of certain kinds of intraocular inflammation. In studies performed in animal eyes, prostaglandins have been shown to produce disruption of the blood-aqueous humor barrier; cause vasodilation, increased vascular permeability, leukocytosis, and increased intraocular pressure. Bromfenac has analgesic and anti- inflammatory activity. The mechanism of its action is thought to be due to its ability to block prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting cyclooxygenase 1 and 2. Pharmacokinetics The plasma concentration of bromfenac following ocular administration of 0.09% Bromfenac Eye Drops in humans is unknown. Based on the maximum proposed dose of one drop to each eye (0.09mg) and PK information from other routes of administration, the systemic concentration of bromfenac is estimated to be below the limit of quantification (50 ng/mL) at steady-state in humans. Studies with Bromfenac Eye Drops in both animals and humans have demonstrated that the drug penetrates rapidly and extensively into all ocular tissues after ophthalmic application. Two animal studies have demonstrated that Bromfenac rapidly achieves measurable levels in all major ocular tissues and that detectable levels are sustained over 24 hours. According to one human study, Bromfenac Eye Drops undergoes rapid absorption (within 15 mins), achieves peak aqueous humor concentration of Bromfenac at 150 to 180 minutes after instillation and remains at therapeutic concentrations in the aqueous humor for at least 12 hours.
