Vitamin d pediatric dosage forms, and methods of making and using the same

By using water-insoluble polymers such as Eudragit or ethylcellulose as substrates, multiple vitamin D sustained-release dosage forms were prepared, which solved the problem that existing instant-release dosage forms were difficult to meet long-term stable release, and achieved long-term sustained-release and high bioavailability of vitamin D.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The dosage forms of existing vitamin D compounds are mostly in immediate release forms, which are difficult to meet the needs of long-term and stable release, especially in the pediatric patient population, and it is difficult to develop suitable oral sustained-release dosage forms.

Method used

Water-insoluble polymers such as Eudragit or ethylcellulose are used as substrates to achieve sustained release of vitamin D compounds through diffusion and erosion mechanisms, and various forms of sustained release agents are prepared, such as spherical particles, nano/microparticle particles, etc.

Benefits of technology

The long-term and stable release of vitamin D compounds is achieved, suitable for children and adult patients, improving the bioavailability and therapeutic effect of the drug, while reducing the dose frequency.
