CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY
MECHANISM OF ACTION
Bromfenac is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has
anti-inflammatory activity.The
mechanism of its action is thought to be due to its ability to block
prostaglandin synthesis by inhibiting
cyclooxygenase 1 and 2.
Prostaglandins have been shown in many animal models to be mediators
of certain kinds of intraocular
inflammation. In studies performed in animal eyes, prostaglandins have
been shown to produce
disruption of the blood-aqueous humor barrier, vasodilation, increased
vascular permeability,
leukocytosis, and increased intraocular pressure.
PHARMACOKINETICS
The plasma concentration of bromfenac following ocular administration
of bromfenac ophthalmic
solution 0.09% in humans is unknown. Based on the maximum proposed
dose of one drop to each eye
