Aqueous solutions of boric acid are used topically for ophthalmic irrigation to cleanse, refresh, and soothe irritated eyes. Aqueous solutions of boric acid also are used for removal of loose foreign material, air pollutants (e.g., smog, pollen), or chlorinated water.

Boric acid, borates and perborates have been used as mild antiseptics or bacteriostats in eyewashes, mouthwashes, burn dressings, and diaper rash powders; however, the effectiveness of boric acid has largely been discredited.

MEDICATION (VET): Antibacterial and antifungal. Used chiefly in aqueous solutions or powders for external use.

A double-blind comparison was made of the use of 14 daily intravaginal gelatin capsules containing 600 mg of boric acid powder versus the use of identical capsules containing 100,000 U nystatin diluted to volume with cornstarch for the treatment of vulvovaginal candidiasis albicans. Cure rates for boric acid were 92% at 7 to 10 days after treatment and 72% at 30 days, whereas the nystatin cure rates were 64% at 7 to 10 days and 50% at 30 days. The speed of alleviation of signs and symptoms was similar for the two drugs. There were no untoward side effects, and cervical cytologic features were not affected.

An outbreak of an illness in a newborn nursery consisting of vomiting, diarrhea, dehydration, and exfoliative dermatitis was mistakenly thought to be due to an infectious agent because Staphylococcus aureus was cultured from the nose, throat, and feces in two patients. The clinical picture was similar to Ritter's disease. However, because S. aureus was not found in other hospital cultures, boric acid toxicity was subsequently considered. It was discovered as a contaminant of the infant formula. Three infants died.

Boric acid enhanced action of hypnotics, but devoid of activity itself.

Patients using boric acid ophthalmic solutions should be advised to consult a physician if ocular pain or visual changes occur, they experience continued ocular redness or irritation, or the condition worsens or persists. Patients with open wounds in or near the eyes should be advised to seek immediate medical treatment.
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2011; Drug Information 2011. Bethesda, MD. 2011
The fatal dose /in humans/ is thought to be 2000-3000 mg for infants, 5000-6000 mg for children, and 15,000-20,000 mg for adults.

No FDA- or EMA-approved therapeutic indications on its own.
Boric acid exhibits minimal bacteriostatic and antifungal activities. Boric acid is likely to mediate antifungal actions at high concentrations over prolonged exposures.
Insecticides
Pesticides designed to control insects that are harmful to man. The insects may be directly harmful, as those acting as disease vectors, or indirectly harmful, as destroyers of crops, food products, or textile fabrics. (See all compounds classified as Insecticides.)

Absorption
Boric acid is well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, open wounds, and serous cavities but displays limited absorption in intact skin. Following intraperitoneal injection in mice, the peak concentration was reached in about 1.0-1.5 hr in the brain whereas the value was 0.5 hr in other tissues.
Route of Elimination
Regardless the route of administration, boric acid predominantly undergoes rapid renal excretion of >90% of total administered dose as unchanged form. Small amounts are also excreted into sweat, saliva, and feces. Following administration as ointment, urinary excretion of boric acid accounted for only 1% of the administered dose.
Volume of Distribution
Volume of distribution ranges from 0.17 to 0.5 L/kg in humans, where large amounts of boric acid are localized in brain, liver, and kidney.
Clearance
A case report of acute boric acid poisoning following oral ingestion of 21 g of boric acid presents the total body clearance of 0.99 L/h before hemodialysis.
Boric acid is readily absorbed from GI tract, serous cavities, and abraded or inflamed skin. It does not penetrate intact skin. Approximately 50% of given dose is excreted within 24 hr. During chronic administration, plateau in urinary excretion is reached only after 2 wk. ... Large amounts of boric acid are localized in brain, liver, and kidney. ... Intracytoplasmic inclusions in pancreas /have been noted/ in fatal cases. /Boric acid/
Goodman, L.S., and A. Gilman. (eds.) The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics. 5th ed. New York: Macmillan Publishing Co., Inc., 1975., p. 995
In animals, boric acid has been shown to be readily absorbed from the GI tract. Among the species studied were rats, rabbits, sheep, and cattle.
Bingham, E.; Cohrssen, B.; Powell, C.H.; Patty's Toxicology Volumes 1-9 5th ed. John Wiley & Sons. New York, N.Y. (2001)., p. V3 p.535
... Boric acid (5%) was applied topically to 10-15% of the body surface of rabbits with an occlusive dressing for 1.5 hr per day for 4 consecutive days. Minimal amounts of boric acid were absorbed across intact skin and slightly abraded skin of rabbits as measured by excretion of B in urine. Absorption was greater in rabbits with more seriously damaged skin.
Bingham, E.; Cohrssen, B.; Powell, C.H.; Patty's Toxicology Volumes 1-9 5th ed. John Wiley & Sons. New York, N.Y. (2001)., p. V3 p.535
In rats given boric acid in an ointment, urinary excretion accounted for only 1% of the administered dose. However, boric acid applied to the skin of rats in an aqueous jelly was absorbed, with 23% of the administered dose appearing in the urine.
Bingham, E.; Cohrssen, B.; Powell, C.H.; Patty's Toxicology Volumes 1-9 5th ed. John Wiley & Sons. New York, N.Y. (2001)., p. V3 p.535

No metabolic pathways reported.
Metabolism of inorganic borates by biological systems is not feasible owing to the excessive energy (523 kJ/mol) required to break the boron-oxygen bond. Inorganic borates, in low concentrations, convert to boric acid at physiological pH in the aqueous layer overlying mucosal surfaces prior to absorption. This is supported by the evidence in both human and animal studies, where more than 90% of the administered dose of borate is excreted as boric acid. There is evidence in both in vitro and in vivo systems that boric acid has an affinity for cis-hydroxyl groups, and this may be the mechanism that explains the biological effects of boric acid. However, this attachment is known to be reversible and concentration dependent, responding to clearance mechanisms.

According to human cases of poisoning, the elimination half-life of boric acid ranges from 13 to 24 hours.
The kinetics of elimination of boron have been evaluated in human volunteers given boric acid via the intravenous and oral routes. The half-life for elimination was the same by either route in these studies and was approximately 21 hr.
WHO; Environmental Health Criteria 204: Boron p.66 (1998). Available from, as of May 12, 2005: https://www.inchem.org/pages/ehc.html
A mean half-life of 13.4 hours (range, 4 to 28 hours) was reported in nine human cases of poisoning /with boric acid/.
Dart, R.C. (ed). Medical Toxicology. Third Edition, Lippincott Williams & Wilkins. Philadelphia, PA. 2004., p. 1322
In humans, the reported excretion half-life is between 13 and 21 hr.
Krieger, R. (ed.). Handbook of Pesticide Toxicology. Volume 2, 2nd ed. 2001. Academic Press, San Diego, California., p. 1435
The elimination half-life reported for rats is 4.6 hr.
Krieger, R. (ed.). Handbook of Pesticide Toxicology. Volume 2, 2nd ed. 2001. Academic Press, San Diego, California., p. 1435
... Excretion is relatively rapid, occurring over a period of a few to several days, with a half-life of elimination of 24 hr or less.

Information regarding the mechanism of action of boric acid in mediating its antibacterial or antifungal actions is limited. Boric acid inhibits biofilm formation and hyphal transformation of _Candida albicans_, which are critical virulence factors. In addition, arrest of fungal growth was observed with the treatment of boric acid.
Boric acid and its derivatives have been shown to promote riboflavinuria in both animals and man. Boric acid complexes with the polyhydroxyl ribitol side chain of riboflavin and greatly increases its water solubility.
