  • Patent number: 11478484
    Abstract: A group of inventions relates to pharmaceutics and refers to a method for preparing a liposomal composition and a pharmacologically active liposomal composition for ophthalmotherapy prepared by this method. The method is implemented by creating a mixture of solutions of latanoprost, egg phosphatidylcholine and cholesterol in organic solvents, vacuum drying thereof, emulsifying in an aqueous medium, and dispersing an emulsion under pressure. According to the invention, a solution of dipalmytoyl phosphatidylglycerol is introduced into the mixture of solutions, wherein latanoprost, egg phosphatidylcholine, and cholesterol are dissolved in ethyl alcohol, while dipalmytoyl phosphatidylglycerol is dissolved in a mixture of ethyl alcohol and chloroform. The emulsifying of the dried mixture is conducted by a lactose solution in a pH 7.1 buffer, while the dispersing of the emulsion is conducted at a stepwise pressure increase from 300 to 800 at followed by a sterilizing filtration and a freeze drying.
