`
`Brumfenac is a non-steroidal anti inflammatory drug (NSAID) with an
`extensive history of cliniccd efficacy; it acts by blocking prostaglandin
`synthesis by inhibiting cyclooxygenase 1 and 2 in the arachidonic acid
`pathway 1
`
`The bromine moiety in bromfenac enhances lipophilicity and facilitates
`penetration throughout ocular tissues 2 - 3
`
`initially
`Brunuck® (brumfenac sodium ophthalmic solution) 0.1% was
`approved in Japan in July .2.000 and was subsequently approved for the
`treatment of blepharitis, conjunctivitis, scleritis (including episcleriti';) and
`post-operative inflammation4
`
`XibromTM (bromfenac ophthalmic solution) 0.09%, administered twice
`daily, was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on March
`for the
`treatment of patients with post-cataract ocular

`inflammation, and in January 2006 for the treatment of oculal- pain
`following cataract surgery4
`
`BromdayTM (bromfenac ophthalmic solution) 0.09% administered once
`daily, was approved by the FDA on October 16, 2010 for the treatment of
`postoperative inflammation and reduction of ocular pain in patients who
`have undergone cataract e:xtractionl
`

`trials, bromfenac ophthalmic solution has demonstrated a favorable
`safety profile
