- W4295067413 abstract "The prevention and management of ocular surface infections is still one of the great challenges for ophthalmologists. The spread of antimicrobial resistance makes it necessary to use antiseptic substances with a broad antimicrobial spectrum. Polyhexamethylene biguanide hydrochloride (Polyhexanide, PHMB) is a broad-spectrum antiseptic with excellent tolerance and a low-risk profile. Its physicochemical action on the phospholipid membrane and DNA replication or repair mechanism, prevents or impedes the development of resistant bacterial strains. PHMB revealed its effective against numerous organisms like viruses, Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, and fungi. Polyhexanide is commonly used as preservative in commercially available disinfecting solutions for contact lens care and in ophthalmic formulations at different concentrations ranging from 1 µg/ml to 50 µg/ml. The administration of 0.02% (200 µg/ml) PHMB is often the first-line therapy of Acanthamoeba keratitis. However, to date, only one close-out randomized controlled study tested the efficacy of 0.02% PHMB in Acanthamoeba keratitis and a phase III study is still ongoing. This paper reviews the antiseptic agent PHMB, focusing on biochemical mechanisms, safety profile and applications in ophthalmology." @default.
