Abstract: The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition for application to the skin comprising epinastine or a salt thereof in a concentration of 0.05 to 1% (w/w) as an active ingredient which can maintain the concentration of the active ingredient for a long time even at lower concentrations.

Abstract: The present invention addresses the problem of providing a novel application of meglumine or a salt thereof. The present invention is an antiseptic agent consisting of meglumine or a salt thereof, and a pharmaceutical composition comprising the antiseptic agent according to the present invention, and pertaining to: a pharmaceutical composition which does not comprise benzalkonium chloride and which is placed in a reusable container; a product that comprises the pharmaceutical composition comprising the antiseptic agent according to the present invention and a reusable container; and a method of improving the antiseptic effect of the pharmaceutical composition by comprising meglumine or a salt thereof in the pharmaceutical composition that has been placed in the reusable container.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an aqueous composition comprising 0.001-0.1% (w/v) atropine or a salt thereof, a water-soluble polymer, and buffer (I), which is at a pH range of 6 or lower, wherein the buffer (I) is at least one selected from the group consisting of a phosphate buffer, an aminocarboxylate buffer, a carbonate buffer, an acetate buffer, a tartrate buffer, a borate buffer, and trometamol.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a pharmaceutical composition that improves intestinal absorption of a compound having a structure represented by the general formula [1]. The composition containing a compound represented by the general formula [1] or a salt thereof and (b) a lipophilic substance improves intestinal absorption of the compound. In the formula, A represents —(NR4)—, —(CR5R6)— or the like; B represents an alkylene group or an alkenylene group; R1 represents an alkyl group, an alkenyl group or the like; R2 represents an adamantylalkyl group or the like; R3 represents an unsaturated heterocyclic ring; R4, R5 and R6 each represent a hydrogen atom or the like; and X represents an oxygen atom or the like.

Abstract: Instillation of a 1.5% (w/v) levofloxacin ophthalmic solution three times a day, which is the dosage or dose regimen of the present invention, has features to cure bacterial conjunctivitis in a shorter time than instillation of a 0.5% (w/v) ophthalmic solution three times a day, which is the conventional dosage or dose regimen, and not to increase the rate of occurrence of side effects. Curing the ocular infection in a short time leads to shortening of the duration of exposure of the ocular-infection-causing bacterium to levofloxacin. Therefore, the levofloxacin ophthalmic solution in the dosage or dose regimen of the present invention is eventually expected to suppress emergence of the resistant bacterium resulting from the long-term use of the levofloxacin ophthalmic solution in the conventional dosage or dose regimen.
