[0002] Rapid-release Alfacalcidol Soft Capsules are a rapid-release pharmaceutical preparation designed for osteoporosis and other bone diseases. As an analog of active vitamin D3, Alfacalcidol has the functions of regulating calcium-phosphorus balance, promoting bone formation and inhibiting bone resorption. Rapid-release technology is designed to enable drugs to dissolve quickly and be released into the body after oral administration, so as to quickly reach effective concentrations and improve therapeutic effects. However, rapid-release preparations may face stability challenges during preparation and storage, such as drug degradation, excipient interactions, etc., which may affect the efficacy and safety of the drug. With the aging of the population and the increasing number of osteoporosis patients, the market demand for rapid-release alfacalcidol soft capsules is also continuing to grow. Rapid-release preparations have the advantages of rapid onset of effect and improved quality of life of patients. Therefore, they are favored by patients and doctors. Osteoporosis patients are often accompanied by symptoms such as pain and fractures. Rapid-release preparations can quickly relieve these symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients. Rapid-release preparations can ensure the rapid release and effective absorption of drugs in the body, thereby improving the therapeutic effect and reducing drug dosage and side effects. Rapid-release preparations usually have a smaller volume and lighter weight, which is convenient for patients to carry and use. In addition, the method of taking the rapid-release preparation is relatively simple, which helps to improve the patient's medication compliance. In summary, rapid-release alfacalcidol soft capsules have broad market prospects and important clinical application value in the treatment of bone diseases such as osteoporosis.

[0024] Example 5 The steps for preparing PLGA microspheres containing vitamin D3 are the same as those in Example 1, but different from the preparation of alfacalcidol soft capsules: (1) Preparing the contents of PLGA microspheres containing vitamin D3: Under nitrogen protection, 80 parts of MCT medium chain triglycerides and 0.03 parts of alfacalcidol were mixed by weight at a temperature of 30° C., 0.3 parts of vitamin E, 2 parts of polyethylene glycol, 6 parts of vitamin E polyethylene glycol succinate, 0.8 parts of tocopherol acetate and 4 parts of PLGA microspheres containing vitamin D3 were added, stirred at 400 rpm for 12 hours, naturally cooled to 25° C., and treated twice with a homogenizer at a pressure of 12 MPa to obtain the contents of PLGA microspheres containing vitamin D3; (2) Preparation of capsule shell liquid: 8 parts of glycerol and 25 parts of deionized water are heated to 70°C, 36 parts of gelatin and 8 parts of β-cyclodextrin are added, stirred and melted, kept warm for 60 minutes, the foam is removed, and the capsule shell liquid is filtered; (3) Preparation of Alfacalcidol Soft Capsules: The capsule contents and capsule shell liquid are prepared into soft capsules using a fully automatic soft capsule machine, and the soft capsules are shaped, washed, dried and packaged in cold air at a temperature of 20° C. and a humidity of 45% to obtain the Alfacalcidol Soft Capsules.
[0025] Based on Examples 1-5, when preparing the capsule shell liquid, experimental analysis is also conducted on the method of adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin, including: determining the test number of gelatin and β-cyclodextrin, determining different methods of adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin, wherein the adding methods include: adding all at once, adding sequentially in proportion, adding simultaneously in proportion, etc.; heating glycerol and deionized water to 70°C and then adding them separately according to different heating methods for stirring and melting, and collecting information on the stirring conditions to obtain stirring collection information; analyzing whether the stirring and melting is completed based on the stirring collection information, and determining the stirring and melting time when the stirring and melting is completed; determining the best method of adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin based on the stirring and melting time, and then adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin to glycerol and deionized water heated to 70°C for stirring and melting according to the best adding method when preparing the capsule shell liquid.
[0026] The above experimental analysis on the method of adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin makes it clear that the different effects of the methods of adding gelatin and β-cyclodextrin on stirring and melting, so that when preparing the capsule shell liquid, gelatin and β-cyclodextrin are added according to the optimal adding method, the efficiency of stirring and melting is improved, and the preparation of the capsule shell liquid is completed in a shorter time, thereby improving the preparation efficiency of alfacalcidol soft capsules.
[0027] Furthermore, when preparing alfacalcidol soft capsules, a temperature and humidity control system is used to control the operating environment. The temperature and humidity control system performs temperature and humidity detection on a target area before preparing alfacalcidol soft capsules, and determines whether the temperature data and humidity data of the target area reach the target temperature and target humidity. The target area here refers to the operating area for preparing alfacalcidol soft capsules, and the target temperature is 20°C and the target humidity is 45%. When the temperature data and humidity data of the target area do not reach the target temperature and target humidity, a temperature regulating device or a humidity regulating device is used to regulate the temperature and humidity of the target area until the temperature data and humidity data of the target area reach the target temperature and target humidity, and then shaping, pill washing, drying and packaging are carried out based on the cold wind at the target temperature and target humidity. In addition, during the shaping, pill washing, drying and packaging process based on the cold wind at the target temperature and target humidity, multi-point monitoring is carried out on the target area to obtain temperature monitoring information and humidity monitoring information within the target area, and whether there are temperature and humidity fluctuations in the target area are analyzed based on the temperature monitoring information and humidity monitoring information, the temperature and humidity fluctuation position is locked, the target position is determined, and the temperature and humidity are micro-controlled for the target position, so that the temperature and humidity in the target area always maintain the target temperature and humidity during the preparation of alfacalcidol soft capsules.
[0028] The temperature and humidity control system is used to ensure the stability of the operating environment during the preparation of the alfacalcidol soft capsules, so that the operation and preparation are always carried out in cold wind at a temperature of 20°C and a humidity of 45%, thereby avoiding changes in the properties of the alfacalcidol soft capsules due to fluctuations in temperature or humidity, thereby ensuring the quality of the alfacalcidol soft capsules.
