Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical composition having excellent anti-inflammatory effects that can be used as a general cold medicine or a medicine for rhinitis.

Background Art

[0002] A general cold medicine is a general term for pharmaceuticals used for alleviating various symptoms of a cold, such as runny nose, nasal congestion, fever, sore throat, cough, phlegm, sneezing, chill, headache, joint pain, muscle pain, etc. General cold medicines are formulated with various ingredients, such as antipyretic and analgesic components, antihistamine components, cough suppressant components, etc., to alleviate these symptoms.

[0003] A medicine for rhinitis is a general term for pharmaceuticals used for alleviating various symptoms caused by acute rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, or sinusitis, such as runny nose, nasal congestion, sneezing, etc. Medicines for rhinitis are formulated with various ingredients, such as antihistamine components and anti-inflammatory components, to alleviate these symptoms.

[0004] Fexofenadine hydrochloride mainly has a selective antihistamine H1 receptor antagonistic action, and further has an inhibitory action on the production of inflammatory cytokines, an inhibitory action on eosinophil migration, and an inhibitory action on the release of chemical mediators. In Japan, its efficacy and effect on allergic rhinitis, urticaria, and itching associated with skin diseases have been recognized (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 1).

[0005] Glycyrrhizic acid or its salts are components contained in licorice and have excellent anti-inflammatory effects, and are known to have an effect of relieving throat swelling and pain.

[0006] Belladonna total alkaloids are alkaloid components extracted from the rhizomes and roots of Atropa belladonna native to Europe. Since they have an action of suppressing the function of the parasympathetic nerve and reducing the secretion of nasal discharge and lacrimal glands, they are used in rhinitis medicines (see, for example, Non-Patent Document 2). In Japan, they are also formulated in general cold medicines (Non-Patent Document 3).

[0007] Currently, as a formulation of fexofenadine or its salt, a therapeutic agent for allergic diseases combining fexofenadine hydrochloride and pseudoephedrine hydrochloride has been prescribed for medical use (Non-Patent Document 4). In addition, although a general cold medicine containing fexofenadine or its salt has not been sold, tablets containing fexofenadine hydrochloride and glycyrrhizic acid (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2) are known.

Examples

[0068] (Test Example) Anti-inflammatory test against bradykinin-plasmin foot edema using rats 1-1. Test substances and reagents for inflammation induction In this test, methylcellulose manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. was used, fexofenadine hydrochloride (hereinafter referred to as fexofenadine) manufactured by Dipharma Inc., glycyrrhizic acid manufactured by Alps Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., belladonna total alkaloids (hereinafter referred to as belladonna) manufactured by Alps Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., phenylephrine hydrochloride (hereinafter referred to as phenylephrine) manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd., dl-methyl ephedrine hydrochloride (hereinafter referred to as methyl ephedrine) manufactured by Alps Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., and anhydrous caffeine (hereinafter referred to as caffeine) manufactured by Shizuoka Caffeine Industry Co., Ltd. were used. Also, bradykinin manufactured by Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Ltd. and Human Plasmin (hereinafter referred to as plasmin) manufactured by Haemagtologic Technology Inc. were used. Each specimen was prepared by dissolving or suspending each test substance in a 0.5% aqueous methylcellulose solution.

[0070] (Inflammatory agent) 1 mg of bradykinin and 0.5 U of plasmin were dissolved in physiological saline to make 20 mL.

[0071] 1 - 2. Test method 5-week-old Crij:WI male rats [Charles River Laboratories Japan, Inc.] were given a 5-day quarantine period and then acclimated for 2 - 4 days. After acclimation, they were grouped (5 rats per group) using the body weight measurement results, and the test substance was orally administered using a probe. 30 minutes later, 0.1 mL of a bradykinin-plasmin solution as an inflammatory agent was subcutaneously injected into the right hind paw plantar surface to induce inflammation. The paw volume was measured for each individual before grouping and 60 minutes after inflammation induction, and the edema rate, area under the curve, and inhibition rate were calculated using the following formulae.

[0072] 1-3. Measurement of plantar volume and calculation of edema rate, area under the curve (AUC), and inhibition rate Before grouping, after inflammation induction, at 15, 30, 45, and 60 minutes, the right hindlimb plantar volume (mL) was measured using a mouse / rat hindlimb plantar edema volume measuring device (TK-101CMP, manufactured by Unicom Co., Ltd.). From the plantar volume before grouping for each individual and the plantar volume values at each measurement time, the edema rate was calculated using the following formula.

[0073]

Formula

[0074] Furthermore, for each individual, the area under the curve (AUC 0-1hr ) was calculated from the edema rates at each time using the following formula.

[0075]

Formula

[0076] a: Edema rate at 15 minutes after inflammation induction b: Edema rate at 30 minutes after inflammation induction c: Edema rate at 45 minutes after inflammation induction d: Edema rate at 60 minutes after inflammation induction

[0077] Furthermore, from the value of AUC 0-1hr for the inflammation control group (Group 0) and the value of AUC 0-1hr for each drug group (Groups 1 - 12), the inhibition rate for each drug group was calculated using the following formula.

[0078]

Formula

[0079] 2. Test results The test results are shown in Table 1.

Table 1

[0080] In Table 1, compared with Group 1 that received fexofenadine alone, Group 2 that received fexofenadine combined with glycyrrhizic acid had a lower suppression rate of edema. However, Group 6 that received fexofenadine and glycyrrhizic acid combined with methylphenidate, Group 7 that received fexofenadine and glycyrrhizic acid combined with phenylephrine, and Group 8 that received fexofenadine and glycyrrhizic acid combined with caffeine showed a significantly improved suppression rate of edema and a high anti-inflammatory effect when compared with Group 1 that received fexofenadine alone, Group 3 that received methylphenidate alone, Group 4 that received phenylephrine alone, and Group 2 that received fexofenadine and glycyrrhizic acid combined.

[0081] Also, compared with Group 1 that received fexofenadine alone, Group 9 that received fexofenadine combined with belladonna had a lower suppression rate of edema. However, Group 10 that received fexofenadine and belladonna combined with methylphenidate, Group 11 that received fexofenadine and belladonna combined with phenylephrine, and Group 12 that received fexofenadine and belladonna combined with caffeine showed a significantly improved suppression rate of edema and a high anti-inflammatory effect when compared with Group 1 that received fexofenadine alone, Group 4 that received phenylephrine alone, Group 5 that received caffeine alone, and Group 9 that received fexofenadine and belladonna combined.
