A medical device that includes a coating of a composite material that includes a polymeric material having a void structure and particulate ceragenin material (i.e., ceragenin particles) associated with the void structure. The average particle size of the ceragenin particles in the composite is in a range from 5 nm to 20 μm, 50 nm to 10 μm, 100 nm to 5 Ξm, or 1 μm to 10 μm. The composite has a high loading of ceragenin particles (e.g., about 10% to about 25%, by weight). The composite has good polymer stability, the ability to release ceragenins from the ceragenin particles disposed in the composite over a sustained period of time at a characteristic elution rate, and the ability to kill large numbers of bacteria and other susceptible microbes over the sustained period of time.

This disclosure relates to medical devices incorporating one or more cationic steroidal antimicrobials (CSAs). The CSAs are incorporated into the medical devices to provide effective antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and/or tissue-healing properties. A medical device includes a component formed from a polymeric material. One or more CSA compounds are mixed with the polymeric material so that the one or more CSA compounds are incorporated into the structure of the medical device as formed from the polymeric material. A medical device can additionally or alternatively include a lubricious coating containing one or more CSA compounds.

The present disclosure describes compositions and methods for preventing and/or treating microbial infections of ciliated tissues, such as tissues of the trachea, lungs, and sinuses. A treatment composition comprises a CSA compound, a poloxamer, and a carrier. The combination of CSA compound and poloxamer allows higher concentrations of CSA compound to be used. Where such doses would normally disrupt ciliary function, the poloxamer prevents damage to ciliated tissue without inhibiting the antimicrobial effectiveness of the CSA compound.
