Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of inhibiting a toxin in an animal, such as a human, by administering to the animal a therapeutically effective amount of a polymer having a plurality of pendant acid functional groups which are directly attached to the polymer backbone or attached to the polymer backbone by a spacer group. The spacer group can have a length in the range from 0 to about 20 atoms. The toxin is, typically, an exotoxin secreted by a pathogenic microorganism, such as a bacterium.

Abstract: The present invention relates to antimicrobial compositions including pharmaceutical compositions and treatment regimens for preventing or treating a microbial infection in a mammal, such as a human, by administering to the mammal, a therapeutically effective amount of a polymer and a therapeutically effective amount of an antibacterial agent.
