The invention relates to an
atorvastatin calcium nano-lipid carrier and a preparation method thereof. The
atorvastatin calcium nano-lipid carrier comprises the following components: 1 wt% to 2 wt% of
atorvastatin calcium, 12 wt% to 24 wt% of a lipid material, 10 wt% to 30 wt% of
phospholipid and 30 wt% to 50 wt% of an emulsifier. The preparation method comprises the following steps: weighing the
atorvastatin calcium, the lipid material and the
phospholipid, ultrasonically dissolving in an
organic solvent, heating to 60-75 DEG C in a water bath, and using an obtained product as an organic phase; dissolving the emulsifier in water, heating to 60-75 DEG C in the water bath, and using an obtained product as a water phase; dropwise adding the organic phase into the water phase stirred at the speed of 90-1,200 r / min, continuously stirring for fully volatilizing the
organic solvent, and concentrating to form a primary
emulsion; pouring the primary
emulsion into
ice water with the volume being 2-5 times that of the primary
emulsion, and continuously stirring and solidifying in an ice bath to obtain the
atorvastatin calcium nano-lipid carrier. The
atorvastatin calcium nano-lipid carrier is internally degradable and high in encapsulation efficiency; after drugs are prepared into nano-lipid carriers, the stability, the water
solubility and the
bioavailability of the drugs can be improved.
