Method of increasing the efficacy of antibiotics by compexing with cyclodextrins

摘要

The present invention provides methods of increasing the biological activity of a bioactive agent by complexing the bioactive agent with a complexing agent. In one preferred embodiment, the bioactive agent is an antibiotic and the complexing agent is a cyclodextrin. However, the invention may be extended to include any drugs as bioactive agents. In certain preferred embodiments, the bioactive agent fits into a hydrophobic core of a complexing agent.
