Abstract
The present invention provides novel ophthalmic drug delivery formulation which comprises a mixture of Carbopol and Pluronic. Carbopol is a trademark of B.F. Goodrich Company's high molecular weight carboxy vinyl polymers (MW above 1,000,000). Pluronic belongs to a class of block copolymers containing polyoxyethylene and polyoxypropylene. The preferred weight percentages of Carbopol and Pluronic in the ophthalmic drug delivery formulation are 0.3% of Carbopol and 14% of Pluronic. The ocular bioavailability is greatly enhanced by the use of the ophthalmic drug delivery formulation of the present invention.
