AI Technical Summary
In the existing preparation method of Yaoxitong capsules, the dry ointment powder is not mixed evenly with the raw medicinal powder and the Western medicine powder, which results in the inability of the effective ingredients to be fully integrated, reducing the efficacy. In addition, the drying and pulverizing process is prone to loss, resulting in low production efficiency.
The spray drying granulation technology is used to directly spray the extract into the raw medicinal powder, eliminating the steps of drying and pulverizing into dry powder. The raw medicinal powder is used as a base powder to mix with the extract to form a uniform mixture. The operation process is simplified by using a spray granulator and a bag shaking process.
It significantly simplifies the operation process, shortens the production cycle, improves the retention rate of active ingredients and product quality, reduces costs, and enhances production efficiency.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical manufacturing technology, specifically to a method for preparing a lumbar pain relief capsule. Background Technology
[0002] In clinical practice, Yaoxitong capsules are mainly used as analgesics to treat patients with lumbar lesions. For example, patients with lumbar disc herniation, or those with damage to the lumbar muscles and deep fascia causing lumbar pain and difficulty bending over, can take Yaoxitong capsules orally for treatment.
[0003] The main ingredients of Yaoxitong Capsules include Angelica dahurica, Aconitum carmichaelii, Angelica pubescens, Dipsacus asper, Achyranthes bidentata, Panax notoginseng, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Clematis chinensis, Cibotium barbarum, Stephania tetrandra, Eucommia ulmoides, Dioscorea hypoglauca, Polygonum multiflorum, Taxillus chinensis, and Angelica sinensis. In the production of Yaoxitong Capsules, Panax notoginseng, Angelica sinensis, and Angelica dahurica are individually pulverized into fine powder. The remaining herbs are extracted and concentrated to form a thick paste, which is then dried to obtain a dry powder. This dry powder of traditional Chinese medicine and the fine powder of herbs are mixed with the raw material of the Western medicine ingredient "acetaminophen." The evenly mixed powder is then filled into hollow gelatin capsule shells to form capsules.
[0004] This preparation method requires drying the thick paste before pulverizing it into dry powder, which can easily lead to loss of the dry powder during the pulverization process. In addition, since the dry powder, raw medicinal powder, and Western medicine powder are all powders, the effective ingredients cannot be integrated together, and the content cannot be guaranteed to be uniform, resulting in reduced efficacy. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, and innovatively proposes a method for preparing Yaoxitong capsules. It uses raw medicinal powder as base powder and sprays it with the extracted extract for granulation. No other excipients need to be added, which reduces costs. The extract is sprayed into the raw medicinal powder, which reduces the steps of drying and pulverizing the extract into dry powder. This significantly simplifies the operation process, shortens the production cycle, and results in a higher retention rate of effective ingredients, thus improving product quality and production efficiency.
[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives of this invention, this invention provides a method for preparing a lumbar pain relief capsule, comprising the following steps:
[0007] Step (1): Prepare raw medicinal powder as base powder;
[0008] Weigh out Angelica sinensis, Panax notoginseng, Angelica dahurica and processed Aconitum carmichaelii, grind them into coarse powder, sift them and mix them to obtain base powder;
[0009] Step (2): Prepare the mixed extract;
[0010] The following herbs were weighed: Angelica dahurica, processed Aconitum carmichaelii, Angelica pubescens, Dipsacus asper, Achyranthes bidentata, Panax notoginseng, Saposhnikovia divaricata, Clematis chinensis, Gentiana macrophylla, Cibotium barbarum, Stephania tetrandra, Piper kadsura, Eucommia ulmoides, Sophora flavescens, Polygonum multiflorum, Taxillus chinensis, Angelica sinensis, Drynaria fortunei, Carthamus tinctorius, Homalomena occulta, Paeonia lactiflora, and Cinnamomum cassia. Water was added to extract the extract, and the extract was concentrated to make a clear paste.
[0011] Step (3): Mix;
[0012] Add the prepared ointment to the spray trolley of the spray dryer granulator, add the raw medicinal powder prepared in step (3) to the spray dryer granulator, heat the raw medicinal powder to the set temperature, spray the ointment into the spray dryer granulator through the spray trolley, and intermittently shake the bag to form a mixture;
[0013] After the ointment has been sprayed out, the mixture is dried.
[0014] Step (4): Crush the mixture to form a fine powder and sieve it;
[0015] Step (5): Add the fine powder and paracetamol to a three-dimensional mixer and mix well to form a mixed powder;
[0016] Step (6): The mixed powder is filled into capsules using a fully automatic capsule filling machine to make lumbar pain relief capsules.
[0017] In the above scheme: in step (1), the sample is sieved through a 20-100 mesh sieve.
[0018] In the above scheme: In step (2), each raw material is added in the following weight proportions: Angelica dahurica 34-44 parts, processed Aconitum carmichaelii 21-31 parts, Angelica pubescens 47-57 parts, Dipsacus asper 48-56 parts, Achyranthes bidentata 48-56 parts, Panax notoginseng 43-50 parts, Saposhnikovia divaricata 50-60 parts, Clematis chinensis 45-57 parts, Gentiana macrophylla 47-57 parts, Acanthopanax senticosus 45-57 parts, Stephania tetrandra 75-86 parts, Piper kadsura 45-57 parts, Eucommia ulmoides 40-50 parts, Sophora flavescens 21-31 parts, Polygonum multiflorum 40-50 parts, Taxillus chinensis 21-31 parts, Angelica sinensis 21-31 parts, Drynaria fortunei 21-31 parts, Carthamus tinctorius 45-57 parts, Homalomena occulta 45-57 parts, Paeonia lactiflora 73-83 parts, and Cinnamomum cassia 45-57 parts.
[0019] In the above scheme: Step (2)
[0020] Extract from the text using the following method:
[0021] Step (2-1): Extraction in one step;
[0022] Weigh the medicine to be extracted and add it to the extraction vessel. Add water to soak it, then heat it to a boil and simmer it at a gentle boil. Filter the decoction.
[0023] Step (2-2): Secondary extraction;
[0024] Add water to the filter residue after filtration in step (1), boil, filter, and combine the decoctions;
[0025] Step (2-3): Concentrate the decoction;
[0026] The combined decoction is added to a concentration tank and concentrated to a clear extract with a relative density of 1.1 to 1.3.
[0027] In the above scheme, the soaking time in step (2-1) is 20 to 40 minutes.
[0028] In the above scheme: the mass of water added for the first time is 11 to 14 times the total mass of the drug to be extracted in step (2), and the mass of water added for the second time is 8 to 12 times the total mass of the drug to be extracted in step (2).
[0029] In the above scheme: in step (3), the spray gun frequency range of the spray cart is 25-35Hz, the spray gun pressure range is 0.35-0.45mpa; the drying temperature of the mixture is 70-80℃, the duration of each bag shaking is 10-20 seconds, and the interval between bag shaking is 150-190 seconds.
[0030] In the above scheme: In step (1), each raw material is added in the following weight proportions: Angelica sinensis 21-31 parts, Panax notoginseng 42-52 parts, Angelica dahurica 33-45 parts and processed Aconitum carmichaelii 21-30 parts. In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical scheme, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: Using a spray drying granulator, the extract is directly sprayed into the raw medicinal powder, without the need to dry and pulverize the extract into dry powder, reducing the number of process steps, significantly simplifying the operation process, shortening the production cycle, and avoiding the loss problem in the process of pulverizing into dry powder in the prior art as much as possible; Using the raw medicinal powder as the base powder and spray granulating it with the extracted extract, there is no need to add other excipients, reducing costs, and the raw medicinal powder directly absorbs the extract, resulting in a higher retention rate of effective ingredients. Spraying the extract in the form of spray makes the particles smaller and more uniform, and the absorption of the raw medicinal powder is also more uniform. At the same time, it avoids the situation of uneven mixing of all fine powders in the prior art, improving product quality and production efficiency. Attached Figure Description
