Indications and Usage:
Indications and usage: neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and hydrocortisone ophthalmic ointment is indicated for steroid-responsive inflammatory ocular conditions for which a corticosteroid is indicated and where bacterial infection or a risk of bacterial infection exists. ocular corticosteroids are indicated in inflammatory conditions of the palpebral and bulbar conjunctiva, cornea and anterior segment of the globe where the inherent risk of corticosteroid use in certain infective conjunctivitides is accepted to obtain a diminution in edema and inflammation. 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 infection is high or where there is an expectation that potentially dangerous numbers of bacteria will be present in the eye (see clinical pharmacology: microbiology ). the

Warnings:
Warnings: not for injection into the eye. neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and hydrocortisone ophthalmic ointment should never be directly introduced into the anterior chamber of the eye. ophthalmic ointments may retard corneal wound healing. prolonged use of corticosteroids may result in ocular hypertension and/or glaucoma, with damage to the optic nerve, defects in visual acuity and fields of vision, and in posterior subcapsular cataract formation. prolonged use may suppress the host immune response and thus increase the hazard of secondary ocular infections. various ocular diseases and long-term use of topical corticosteroids have been known to cause corneal and scleral thinning. use of topical corticosteroids in the presence of thin corneal or scleral tissue may lead to perforation. acute purulent infections of the eye may be masked or enhanced by the presence of corticosteroid medication. if these products are used for 10 days or longer, intraocular pressure sho

General Precautions:
General: the initial prescription and renewal of the medication order beyond 8 grams should be made by a physician only after examination of the patient with the aid of magnification, such as slit lamp biomicroscopy and, where appropriate, fluorescein staining. if signs and symptoms fail to improve after two days, the patient should be re-evaluated. as fungal infections of the cornea are particularly prone to develop coincidentally with long-term corticosteroid applications, fungal invasion should be suspected in any persistent corneal ulceration where a corticosteroid has been used or is in use. fungal cultures should be taken when appropriate. if this product is used for 10 days or longer, intraocular pressure should be monitored (see warnings ). there have been reports of bacterial keratitis associated with the use of topical ophthalmic products in multiple-dose containers which have been inadvertently contaminated by patients, most of whom had a concurrent corneal disease or a disr

Dosage and Administration:
Dosage and administration: apply the ointment in the affected eye every 3 or 4 hours, depending on the severity of the condition. not more than 8 grams should be prescribed initially and the prescription should not be refilled without further evaluation as outlined in precautions above.
Contraindications:
Contraindications: neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and hydrocortisone ophthalmic ointment is contraindicated in most viral diseases of the cornea and conjunctiva including: epithelial herpes simplex keratitis (dendritic keratitis), vaccinia and varicella, and also in mycobacterial infection of the eye and fungal diseases of ocular structures. neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and hydrocortisone ophthalmic ointment is also contraindicated in individuals who have shown hypersensitivity to any of its components. hypersensitivity to the antibiotic component occurs at a higher rate than for other components.
Adverse Reactions:
Adverse reactions: adverse reactions have occurred with corticosteroid/anti-infective combination drugs which can be attributed to the corticosteroid component, the anti-infective component, or the combination. the exact incidence is not known. reactions occurring most often from the presence of the anti-infective ingredient are allergic sensitization reactions including itching, swelling and conjunctival erythema (see warnings ). more serious hypersensitivity reactions, including anaphylaxis, have been reported rarely. the reactions due to the corticosteroid component in decreasing order of frequency are: elevation of intraocular pressure (iop) with possible development of glaucoma, and infrequent optic nerve damage; posterior subcapsular cataract formation; and delayed wound healing. secondary infection: the development of the secondary infection has occurred after use of combinations containing corticosteroids and antimicrobials. fungal and viral infections of the cornea are particu

Use in Pregnancy:
Pregnancy: teratogenic effects: pregnancy category c. corticosteroids have been found to be teratogenic in rabbits when applied topically at concentrations of 0.5% on days 6 to 18 of gestation and in mice when applied topically at a concentration of 15% on days 10 to 13 of gestation. there are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and hydrocortisone ophthalmic ointment should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
Pediatric Use:
Pediatric use: safety and effectiveness in pediatric patients have not been established.
Geriatric Use:
Geriatric use: no overall differences in safety or effectiveness have been observed in between elderly and younger patients.

Clinical Pharmacology:
Clinical pharmacology: corticosteroids suppress the inflammatory response to a variety of agents and they probably delay or slow healing. since corticosteroids may inhibit the body's defense mechanism against infection, a concomitant antimicrobial drug may be used when this inhibition is considered to be clinically significant in a particular case. when a decision to administer both a corticosteroid and antimicrobials is made, the administration of such drugs in combination has the advantage of greater patient compliance and convenience, with the added assurance that the appropriate dosage of all drugs is administered. when each type of drug is in the same formulation, compatibility of ingredients is assured and the correct volume of drug is delivered and retained. the relative potency of corticosteroids depends on the molecular structure, concentration and release from the vehicle. microbiology: the anti-infective components in neomycin and polymyxin b sulfates, bacitracin zinc, and h

Carcinogenesis and Mutagenesis and Impairment of Fertility:
Carcinogenesis, mutagenesis, impairment of fertility: long-term studies in animals to evaluate carcinogenic or mutagenic potential have not been conducted with polymyxin b sulfate or bacitracin. treatment of cultured human lymphocytes in vitro with neomycin increased the frequency of chromosome aberrations at the highest concentrations (80 mcg/ml) tested; however, the effects of neomycin on carcinogenesis and mutagenesis in humans are unknown. long-term studies in animals (rats, rabbits, mice) showed no evidence of carcinogenicity or mutagenicity attributable to oral administration of corticosteroids. long-term animal studies have not been performed to evaluate the carcinogenic potential of topical corticosteroids. studies to determine mutagenicity with hydrocortisone have revealed negative results. polymyxin b has been reported to impair the motility of equine sperm, but its effects on male or female fertility are unknown. no adverse effects on male or female fertility, litter size or
