Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for the treatment of skin and ear infections in humans and animals such as dogs, cats and horses. In particular, the present invention relates to a topical composition comprising acetic acid, an antibacterial and/or an anti-fungal, and preferably also an anti-inflammatory. More specifically, the composition of the present invention is a bandage, bedding, clothing, conditioner, cream, drape, dressing, film, foam, gauze, gel, lotion, mousse, otic solution, pad, patch, serum, shampoo, solution, spray, or wipe for treatment or prevention of skin infections, wherein the composition comprises about 0.1-10% acetic acid, about 0.1-10% boric acid, about 0.01-20% azole, and optionally about 0.01-20% corticosteroid.

Abstract: Provided are bioerodible formulations that can be implanted into a cavity of a mammal as a liquid or semi-liquid and which solidifies upon exposure to body temperature of the mammal to form an implant. The implant erodes over a period of time and eluted a drug. The implant forms a seal with the surrounding tissue to prevent the entry of bacterial pathogens and enhance delivery of the Al at the desired foci.

Abstract: Provided are compositions having at least one buffering agent, at least one chelating agent and at least one antimicrobial agent, which can be used for treating and/or preventing diseases or disorders in a variety of animals. In certain embodiments, in particular, the compositions can be used for treating and/or preventing ophthalmic and oral cavity diseases or disorders in humans and animals.

Abstract: A method for treating and preventing infections, bacterial, fungal, insecticidal, parasitic and actinomycotic in origin, especially infections of organs such as the vagina and skin. The methods involves administering to a patient in need thereof a composition comprising a combination of boric acid and acetic acid, in effective amounts. Such a composition is especially useful as a broad based treatment and prevention of vaginal and skin infections of unknown origin and can be used without the need for medical diagnosis or while such a diagnosis is being determined. Such a composition is effective, safe, economical and environmentally friendly, and provides an alternative to existing forms of treatment which are toxic which may cause undesirable side effects.
