ENV905: Post Cataract Difluprednate XR
Difluprednate
0.5 mm
Target Product Profile• 3-4 week control of inflammation• Lower drug exposure• Easy administration• Fully biodegradable• Excellent safety
Current Situation• Topical steroids are QID dosing• Generics dominate, but branded products are competitive• Need for improvement in overall efficiency of managing cataract
patients from beginning to end
XR steroid formulation puts control of inflammation in the hands of the doctor
