Abstract: The invention provides novel compositions of water-insoluble corticosteroid drug in combination with antimicrobial agents and very low concentrations of polymers and surfactants for topical, otic and ophthalmic treatment. The invention provides stable aqueous suspension where the ingredients remain in such a state so as to allow for immediate re-suspension, when desired, even after extended periods of settling. The invention provides also a method for treating inflammation with low systemic absorption and side-effects of the corticosteroid.
