TOPICAL THERAPEUTIC COMPOSITION CONTAINING OXIDATION INHIBITOR SYSTEM

摘要

A substantially non-toxic, stable, topical therapeutic composition is provided which comprises: (a) a therapeutically active component which is susceptible to oxidative degradation: (b) an oxidative degradation-inhibitory amount of a redox system containing (1) a water soluble polymer containing a plurality of reducing moieties covalently bound thereto and (2) a water soluble polymer containing a plurality of oxidizing moieties-covalently bound thereto; and (c) an aqueous vehicle base compatible with the therapeutically active component.
