Definitions
- This invention relates to the topical ophthalmic use of brimonidine in combination with timolol when indicated for treatment of glaucoma or ocular hypertension.
- Such combinations or formulations are available for separate use in the ophthalmic art and have been combined in serial application during the course of treatment of glaucoma.
- problems and expressed reservations in the ophthalmic community about patient compliance when the patient is required to administer separate medications to treat a single disease or condition such as glaucoma.
- an effective and safe topical ophthalmic pharmaceutical composition including brimonidine and timolol which has increased stability and requires a lower effective concentration of preservative as compared to the individual agents taken alone.
- Brimonidine is disclosed in U.S. Patent 3,890,319.
- the use of brimonidine for providing neuroprotection to the eye is disclosed in U.S. Patents 5,856,329; 6,194,415 and 6,248,741.
- Brimonidine is an alpha adrenergic agonist represented by the following formula:
- brimonidine 5-Bromo-6-(2- imidazolidinylideneamino)quinoxaline L-tartrate.
- Timolol is a beta adrenergic agent represented by the following formula:
- Brimonidine is available from Allergan, Inc., Irvine, California as an ophthalmic pharmaceutical product having the name Alphagan®. Timolol is available from various sources, including Merck Co., Rahway, New Jersey.
- compositions of the present invention are administered topically.
- the dosage is 0.001 to 1.0, e.g. mg/per eye BID; wherein the cited mass figures represent the sum of the two components, brimonidine and timolol.
- the compositions of the present invention can be administered as solutions in a suitable ophthalmic vehicle.
- compositions for topical admimstration are preferably formulated as 0.01 to 0.5 percent by weight brimonidine and 0.1 to 1.0 percent by weight timolol solution in water at a pH of 4.5 to 8.0, e.g. about 6.9. While the precise regimen is left to the discretion of the clinician, it is recommended that the solution be topically applied by placing one drop in each eye two times a day.
- Other ingredients which may be desirable to use in the ophthalmic preparations of the present invention include preservatives, co-solvents and viscosity building agents.
- Ophthalmic products are typically packaged in multidose form. Preservatives are thus required to prevent microbial contamination during use. Suitable preservatives include: benzalkonium chloride, thimerosal, chlorobutanol, methyl paraben, propyl paraben, phenylethyl alcohol, edetate disodium, sorbic acid, Onamer M, or other agents known to those skilled in the art. In the prior art ophthalmic products, typically such preservatives are employed at a level of from 0.004% to 0.02%. In the compositions of the present application the preservative, preferably benzalkonium chloride, may be employed at a level of from 0.001% to less than 0.01%, e.g.
- a concentration of benzalkonium chloride of 0.005% is sufficient to preserve the compositions of the present invention from microbial attack. This concentration may be advantageously compared to the requirement of 0.01% 5 benzalkonium chloride to preserve timolol in the individual, commercially-available ophthalmic products. Moreover, it has been found that adequate lowering of intraocular pressure has been obtained when administering the compositions of this invention twice a day as compared to the FDA-approved regimen wherein brimonidine ophthalmic solution, i.e.
- Alphagan® ophthalmic 0 solution is administered three times a day and timolol ophthalmic solution, i.e. Timoptic® ophthalmic solution is administered twice a day.
- Timoptic® ophthalmic solution is administered twice a day.
- FDA-approved adjunctive therapy wherein s Alphagan® and Timoptic® are serially administered, the patient is exposed to almost three times the concentration of benzalkonium chloride as compared to the administration of the compositions of this invention twice a day.
- benzalkonium chloride at high concentrations is cytotoxic. Therefore, minimizing the patient's exposure to benzalkonium chloride, while o providing the preservative effects afforded by benzalkonium chloride, is clearly desirable.
- compositions may be enhanced by a surfactant or other appropriate co-solvent in the composition.
- cosolvents include polysorbate 20, 60, and 80, Pluronic F68, F-84 and P-103, cyclodextrin, or other agents known to those skilled in the art.
- co-solvents are employed at a level of from 0.01 % to 2% by weight.
- Viscosity increased above that of simple aqueous solutions maybe desirable to increase ocular absorption of the active compound, to decrease variability in dispensing the formulation, to decrease physical separation of components of a suspension or emulsion of the formulation and/or to otherwise improve the ophthalmic formulation.
- Such viscosity building agents include as examples polyvinyl alcohol, polyvinyl pyrrolidone, methyl cellulose, hydroxy propyl methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, carboxymethyl cellulose, hydroxy propyl cellulose or other agents known to those skilled in the art. Such agents are typically employed at a level of from 0.01% to 2% by weight.
- the present invention further comprises an article of manufacture comprising packaging material and a pharmaceutical agent contained within said packaging material, wherein the pharmaceutical agent is therapeutically effective for lowering intraocular pressure and wherein the packaging material comprises a label which indicates the pharmaceutical agent can be used for lowering intraocular pressure and wherein said pharmaceutical agent comprises an effective amount of brimonidine and an effective amount of timolol.
- packaging material comprises a label which indicates the pharmaceutical agent can be used for lowering intraocular pressure
- said pharmaceutical agent comprises an effective amount of brimonidine and an effective amount of timolol.
- the following example is a representative pharmaceutical composition of the invention for topical use when indicated for treating glaucoma.
- EXAMPLE I The combination of active pharmaceutical ingredients is as follows: Brimonidine Tartrate 0.20 %(w/v) and Timolol Maleate 0.68 %(w/v) (Equivalent to 0.50 %(w/v) timolol)
- the Brimonidine-Timolol combination formulation presented in the Table, below, is a sterile, preserved, aqueous solution.
- the formulation vehicle is based upon a timolol ophthalmic solution which contains an isotonic phosphate buffer system at pH 6.9.
- the formulation preservative is benzalalkonium chloride (BAK) at a concentration of 0.005 %(w/v) (50 ppm).
- BAK benzalalkonium chloride
- the formulation passes regulatory required preservative efficacy testing (PET) criteria for USP (United States Pharmacopoeia) and EP (European Pharmacopoeia-A and -B over 24 months.
