Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of veterinary drug preparations, and in particular relates to a trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Trimethoprim is a bacterial dihydrofolate reductase inhibitor. Its antibacterial action is based on interfering with bacterial folate metabolism, thereby inhibiting bacterial growth and reproduction. As a widely used antibacterial drug and synergist in veterinary clinical practice, trimethoprim exhibits antibacterial activity against most Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Pure trimethoprim has a bitter taste and low solubility in aqueous solutions, resulting in low bioavailability. These drawbacks limit its application. Therefore, research into new sustained-release trimethoprim veterinary dosage forms is of great significance.
[0003] In recent years, researchers have been widely using biocompatible materials as carriers to load active pharmaceutical ingredients through encapsulation, embedding, and other methods to improve the water solubility and bioavailability of drugs. For example, patent CN118562028A discloses a method for preparing a trimethoprim-cyclodextrin derivative inclusion compound, which improves the water solubility of trimethoprim and improves the pharmacokinetic properties of trimethoprim in mice. Patent CN115819428B discloses a trimethoprim-octa-cucurbit ring inclusion compound and its preparation and application, which improves the solubility and antibacterial activity of trimethoprim. However, the inclusion compounds prepared by the above two processes have obvious deficiencies in controlling the release site, improving drug stability, achieving enteric dissolution function, adapting to industrial production, and supporting compound medication. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the above technical issues, the present invention provides a trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant, its preparation method, and its application. Specifically, the solid dispersant prepared by the present invention has good water solubility, is stable in gastric fluid after oral administration, and releases the drug in intestinal fluid, making it useful for treating bacterial infections. Furthermore, the solid dispersant disclosed by the present invention can be compounded with sulfonamides in any proportion to form a composite formulation, expanding its application prospects.
[0005] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] One of the technical solutions of the present invention:
[0007] A trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant, the raw materials of which include trimethoprim and polyacrylic acid resin;
[0008] Wherein, the mass ratio of trimethoprim (TMP) to polyacrylic acid resin (PAA) is 0.02-0.3.
[0009] Optionally, the polyacrylic acid resin is selected from one or more of Eudragit S100, Eudragit L100 or Eudragit L100-55.
[0010] Beneficial Effects: The present invention utilizes carboxyl-containing polyacrylic acid resins, such as Eudragit L100 and S100, as carriers to form a solid dispersion system, significantly improving the dispersibility and solubility of trimethoprim in water. Furthermore, the coating structure formed by the polyacrylic acid resin effectively prevents trimethoprim degradation during storage, extending the drug's shelf life. Furthermore, the solubility characteristics of the polyacrylic acid resins defined in this invention under different pH conditions (e.g., Eudragit L100 dissolves at pH > 6) enable selective release of the drug in the intestinal tract, preventing loss in gastric fluid.
[0011] Optionally, the particle size of the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant is 200 nm-6 μm.
[0012] The second technical solution of the present invention:
[0013] A method for preparing a trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant comprises the following steps:
[0014] dissolving trimethoprim and polyacrylic acid resin in an organic solvent, then adding deionized water and stirring uniformly to obtain a mixed solution;
[0015] The mixed solution is dialyzed or evaporated to remove the organic solvent, and then dried to prepare the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant.
[0016] Beneficial Effects: This method uses an organic solvent to dissolve the raw materials and then removes the solvent through dialysis or evaporation. This method is simple to operate and suitable for industrial production. Furthermore, by adjusting the stirring rate, time, and drying method (freeze-drying or spray-drying), the present invention can produce particles ranging from 200 nm to 6 μm, which helps improve drug absorption efficiency. Low-temperature freeze-drying and controllable spray-drying parameters help preserve the chemical structure and antibacterial activity of trimethoprim.
[0017] Optionally, the volume ratio of the organic solvent to deionized water is 1:5-20.
[0018] Furthermore, the organic solvent is selected from one or more of methanol, ethanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethyl sulfoxide and N,N-dimethylformamide.
[0019] Optionally, the stirring rate during the stirring process is 500-3000 rpm; the stirring time is 2-24 hours; and the stirring temperature is 25-80°C.
[0020] Optionally, the dialysis conditions are: dialysis in a dialysis bag with a molecular weight cut-off of 8000-14000 for 12-48 hours;
[0021] The evaporation conditions are: distillation on a rotary evaporator at 40-80° C. for 0.5-3 hours to remove the organic solvent.
[0022] Optionally, the drying is freeze-drying or spray-drying.
[0023] Furthermore, the freeze-drying conditions are: freeze-drying at (-40)°C-(-60)°C for 40-80h.
[0024] Furthermore, the spray drying conditions are: flow rate of 20 mL / h, inlet temperature of 100-200°C, and outlet temperature of 80-150°C.
[0025] The third technical solution of the present invention:
[0026] The present invention provides use of the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant in preparing antibacterial drugs.
[0027] Beneficial Effects: The solid dispersion prepared by this invention increases the bioavailability of trimethoprim, thereby enhancing its inhibitory effect against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Furthermore, the dispersion's flexible form facilitates subsequent formulation into a variety of veterinary dosage forms, including oral preparations, sustained-release tablets, and granules. It also provides a good foundation for subsequent combined use with other antibiotics (such as sulfonamides), demonstrating its potential as a "synergistic enhancer."
[0028] The fourth technical solution of the present invention:
[0029] A veterinary drug preparation, the raw materials of which include sulfonamides and the above-mentioned trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant.
[0030] Beneficial Effects: The present invention combines trimethoprim with sulfonamides (such as sulfamethazine) to produce a synergistic antibacterial effect. This dual-target mechanism reduces the risk of drug resistance associated with single-drug use.
[0031] The solid dispersant disclosed in the present invention makes the compound preparation easier to process, and the prepared compound preparation has stable efficacy and sustained-release properties, and is more suitable for long-term use in veterinary clinics.
[0032] Optionally, the mass ratio of the sulfonamide drug to the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersant is 1:1.
[0033] Furthermore, the sulfonamide drug is sulfamethazine.
[0034] Optionally, the veterinary preparation is an oral preparation, a sustained-release tablet preparation or a granular preparation.
[0035] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0036] 1. This invention constructs a trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersion system based on an enteric-coated polyacrylic acid resin with pH-responsive properties. This system remains stable in the low pH environment of the stomach, effectively preventing drug degradation and inactivation in gastric fluid. Furthermore, in the neutral or weakly alkaline environment of the intestine (pH > 6), the resin material rapidly dissolves, enabling targeted drug release. This characteristic significantly improves the bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of trimethoprim, making it particularly suitable for the development of oral formulations with targeted release.
[0037] 2. The trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersion prepared by the present invention has a high drug loading rate and excellent physicochemical stability. By uniformly dispersing trimethoprim in the resin matrix, not only is the drug's dispersibility and dissolution rate effectively improved, but its glass transition temperature (Tg) is also significantly increased, indicating that the drug molecule is more stable in the solid state and less prone to crystallization or phase separation. This structural optimization helps extend the drug's shelf life and improve its stability during storage, thereby enhancing the overall quality and clinical application value of the preparation.
[0038] 3. The preparation method provided by the present invention is simple to operate, has a controllable process, and is suitable for industrial continuous production. The resulting solid dispersion can not only be used alone to improve the solubility and bioavailability of trimethoprim, but can also be used in combination with sulfonamide antibiotics. Specifically, when formulated as a solid dispersion, it can more effectively enhance the antibacterial activity of sulfonamides, significantly enhancing their antibacterial activity and reducing the risk of drug resistance, thus showing promising clinical application prospects.

[0106] Figure 7The in vitro inhibitory activity of the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersion prepared in Example 1 of the present invention against Staphylococcus aureus is shown in Figure 1. (a) represents the blank control group, (b) represents the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersion prepared in Example 1 at a concentration of 0.01 mg / mL in the bacterial solution, (c) represents the trimethoprim / polyacrylic acid resin solid dispersion prepared in Example 1 at a concentration of 0.025 mg / mL in the bacterial solution, and (d) represents the growth of Staphylococcus aureus colonies using a compounded drug formed by combining the solid dispersant with sulfamethazine in a 1:1 mass ratio (the compounded drug had a concentration of 0.01 mg / mL in the bacterial solution). As can be seen from the figure, the antibacterial activity of the drug-dosed group was significantly stronger than that of the control group, and the solid dispersant can be combined with sulfonamide antibacterial drugs to act as a synergist, enhancing the antibacterial effect of sulfonamide drugs.
