Abstract
A depot system containing at least one antibiotic and a biodegradable poly(ester-anhydride) of ricinoleic acid (RA) and sebacic acid (SA) having alternating or semi-alternating ester and anhydride bonds is provided. The system provides prolonged local release of the antibiotic at the site of injection while maintaining the systemic antibiotic levels at sub-therapeutic concentrations.
