ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to polymeric medical articles contained the antiinfective agents chlorhexidine and triclosan. It is based, at least in part, on the discovery that the synergistic relationship between these compounds permits the use of relatively low levels of both agents, and on the discovery that effective antimicrobial activity may be achieved when these compounds are contained in either hydrophilic or hydrophobic polymers.
