Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to controlled release formulations of cilostazol and methods of preparing said formulations. Background technique
[0002] Cilostazol is a typical intracellular cAMP PDE (cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase) inhibitor, and it has been known that it inhibits platelet aggregation and dilates arteries by inhibiting PDE activity. It plays an important role in anti-inflammatory and anti-ulcer effects, lowering blood pressure, prevention and treatment of asthma and cerebral infarction, and improvement of cerebral circulation.
[0003] Cilostazol has poor water solubility (1 μg / ml or less), and it has been demonstrated that orally administered cilostazol is absorbed primarily in the upper gastrointestinal (GI) tract and its absorption occurs as it moves to the lower GI tract reduce. Because the conventional controlled-release dosage form of cilostazol has a limitation on the absorption time at the desired absorption site, the current ...
