The application relates to a Chinese patent application with the application date of 2016, 6 and 20, the application number of 201610443201.8 and the name of 'captopril microchip and a preparation method thereof'.
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, and particularly relates to a captopril microchip and a method for preparing the captopril microchip.
Background
Hypertension (hypertension) refers to a clinical syndrome characterized by an increase in systemic arterial blood pressure (systolic and/or diastolic blood pressure) (systolic pressure. Gtoreq.140 mmHg, diastolic pressure. Gtoreq.90 mmHg), accompanied by functional or organic impairment of organs such as heart, brain, kidneys, etc. Hypertension is the most common chronic disease and is also the most important risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The blood pressure of normal people fluctuates within a certain range along with the internal and external environment changes. In the whole population, the blood pressure level gradually increases with age to make the systolic blood pressure more obvious, but the diastolic blood pressure shows a decreasing trend after 50 years of age, and the pulse pressure also increases. The blood pressure value and risk factor evaluation are the main basis for diagnosing and formulating a hypertension treatment scheme, targets of hypertension management of different patients are different, and doctors face patients on the basis of reference standards, judge the most suitable blood pressure range of the patients according to specific conditions, and adopt targeted treatment measures.
At present, a series of medicines for hypertension, namely captopril (captopril, methoprene and kebotong), are developed at home and abroad, are first-generation orally effective Angiotensin Converting Enzyme Inhibitors (ACEI), and since the advent of 1997, the efficacy of antihypertensive and congestive heart failure treatment of the same has been acknowledged. Captopril has a remarkable antihypertensive effect on various types of hypertension and can improve the heart function of patients suffering from congestive heart failure. Clinically, the traditional Chinese medicine composition is used for various types of hypertension, and is particularly effective for severe hypertension which is ineffective in conventional therapy. Can also be used for treating intractable chronic heart failure.
The micro tablet is a micro tablet with the diameter of 1-3 mm formed by stamping by a special tablet press, the micro tablet belongs to a dose dispersion preparation, the micro tablet is uniformly dispersed in the gastrointestinal tract after being orally taken by a patient, the irritation to the gastrointestinal tract is reduced, the gastrointestinal transportation and absorption of the medicine are less influenced by the gastric emptying rate, thus the individual variability is small, the medicine release behavior of the micro tablet is the sum of the medicine release behaviors of a plurality of small units forming one dose, and the medicine release behavior of the whole preparation cannot be seriously influenced by the defects of the preparation process of the individual small units after the oral administration. For people with large individual differences in drug metabolism, such as the elderly and infants, or for drugs with dosages needing to be adjusted at any time, the microchip is a relatively ideal administration form, and patients can count and take the microchip according to an individual administration scheme, so that the metering is more accurate. The microtablets are more regular in shape and more uniform in size than other multicell dosage forms. Because the microchip is pressed by a fixed die, the tablet has the characteristics of common tablets, the tablet weight and the size are accurate and controllable, the reproducibility of production is good, and each microchip unit has the same size, weight and medicine content.
At present, only two common dosage forms of a tablet and a dripping pill are clinically used at home and abroad, and the existing captopril dosage form can not meet the requirement of individual medication and can achieve accurate medication when the dosage is required to be administered in a small dosage, such as when the dosage is required to be administered by children or when the dosage is required to be adjusted at any time, such as when the dosage is required to be administered by the old people. In addition, when the existing pharmaceutical dosage forms are taken, the compliance of taking medicines is poor for special people, especially children, due to the overlarge volume of the dosage forms.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to overcome the defects in the prior art, the invention provides a captopril microchip preparation. The captopril micro-tablet can be repeatedly dosed in small dosage through a special granulating formula and a preparation process, especially for people with large individual metabolic variability, such as the elderly and infants, can be accurately dosed, various side effects caused by inaccurate dosing can be reduced while accurate dosing is achieved, and the compliance of dosing can be improved for people with difficulty in dosing conventional preparations.
In order to achieve the aim of the invention, the invention provides a captopril microchip preparation, which comprises the following prescription raw materials and the dosage ratio:
captopril 0.4-0.8
7.0 To 8.0 portions of diluent
0.2 To 0.6 of adhesive
0.04-0.2 Parts of lubricant.
The captopril microchip preparation disclosed by the invention is characterized in that the raw materials in the microchip and the dosage ratio of the raw materials are preferably as follows:
Captopril 0.6
Diluent 7.6
Adhesive 0.4
Lubricant 0.08.
Wherein the diluent is one or more selected from starch, pregelatinized starch, dextrin, microcrystalline cellulose and lactose. The adhesive is one or more selected from HPMC, povidone, gelatin, poloxamer, microcrystalline cellulose and polyvinylpyrrolidone. The lubricant is one or more selected from magnesium stearate, talcum powder, corn starch, stearic acid, calcium stearate, talcum and calcium behenate.
The excipients included in the microchip preparation of the present invention are not limited to the types listed in the summary and examples, and may also include other pharmaceutical excipients, provided that the compression molding of the microchip is not affected. For example, surfactants may be included, which may be selected from sorbitol, mannitol, sodium lauryl sulfate, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, alkylphenol polyoxyethylene, and the like.
The spatial shape of the flits can in principle be chosen as desired. The microchip of the present invention preferably has a cylindrical, oval or spherical spatial shape. Preferably, the height and the diameter of the cylindrical shape can be 1-4 mm, and the height and the diameter can be arbitrarily selected according to the needs, such as the height and the diameter can be 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.5mm, 3mm, 3.5mm, 4mm and the like respectively.
In the microchip preparation of the present invention, the surface of the microchip may also be coated by a known method. The active substance captopril can be released in an aqueous medium, for example, by applying at least one coating layer, in a controlled (generally delayed) manner. Suitable controlled release coatings contain water insoluble waxes or polymers, preferably ethylcellulose.
The microchip preparation of the present invention may also contain a coating which may be dissolved, for example, in a pH dependent manner, ensuring that the microchip preparation does not dissolve through the stomach until it reaches the intestine.
The captopril micro-tablet preparation can be filled into a capsule to prepare an oral preparation in the form of the capsule, and the capsule contains a certain number of micro-tablets capable of controllably releasing the medicine, and the number of the micro-tablets is determined according to single release time and the amount of the medicine to be released. The number of microtablets in the capsule is preferably sufficient for a once or twice daily dose. The advantage of using this dosage form is that the dose of the active ingredient is subdivided among many directly countable microtablets, but since the dose is already established in the capsule, the patient does not have to count cumbersome anymore.
The microchip formulations of the present invention may be used alone or in combination with a specialized drug delivery device, such as a drug dispensing device, to provide for more convenient and accurate administration.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing captopril minitablets, which can be prepared by fluidized bed top-spray granulation, wet granulation, dry granulation or fluidized bed bottom-spray granulation.
When the top-spraying granulation process is adopted, the preparation method comprises the steps of adding captopril and an adhesive into purified water, stirring until a clear transparent solution is formed and used as a granulating adhesive solution for standby, premixing a diluent, putting the diluent into a fluidized bed top-spraying pot body, starting a fluidized bed blast, adjusting atomization pressure and air inlet temperature, spraying the adhesive solution for top-spraying granulation, taking out the granules after the adhesive solution is sprayed, carrying out dry granulation, uniformly mixing the obtained dry granules with a prescribed amount of lubricant, and transferring the mixed material to a high-speed rotary tablet press for tabletting to obtain finished tablets.
Or adopting wet granulation process, the preparation method comprises placing captopril, diluent and binder in a pan of wet granulator, spraying purified water after mixing, wet granulating, drying, granulating, mixing with lubricant, and tabletting.
