Embodiment Construction

[0013] In the plaster according to the present invention, diclofenac is generally present in the form of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt, and preferably it is a salt with a heterocyclic amine of general formula: 1

[0014] where m is 0 or1.

[0015] According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the heterocyclic amine is N-hydroxyethyl pyrrolidine (epolamine).

[0016] The diclofenac salt is contained in the plaster according to the present invention in concentrations generally ranging from 0.1 to 5 wt %, preferably in concentrations of between 0.3 and 3 wt % with respect to the total weight of the composition used for the preparation of the hydrogel matrix.

[0017] According to a particularly preferred embodiment, the concentration of the diclofenac salt is 1.3 wt % with respect to the total weight of the composition used for the preparation of the hydrogel matrix.

[0018] When the plaster according to the present invention contains a heparinoid, the latter preferably presents a molecular...

Abstract

Plaster for topical use having an analgesic activity and at the same time being able to re-absorb haematomas, comprising: a substrate layer; an adhesive layer in the form of a hydrogel matrix containing a pharmaceutically acceptable diclofenac salt, heparin or a heparinoid; a protective film which can be removed at the moment of use.

Description

SCOPE OF INVENTION[0001] Plaster for topical use having an analgesic activity and being able to re-absorb haematomas, containing diclofenac in association with heparin or a heparinoid.STATE OF THE ART[0002] Known and available on the market are creams for topical use with a base of heparinoids, possibly in association with hyaluronidase, for re-absorption of haematomas and ecchymoses.[0003] Though remarkably effective, these creams involve a number of drawbacks. In fact, they do not present a more specific analgesic activity, which would be particularly necessary in the case of serious ecchymoses.[0004] In addition, the creams, the application of which involves first spreading the cream, and subsequently rubbing or gentle massaging on the area affected, do not enable uniform dosing of the active principle from one application to the next.[0005] In addition, with this type of formulation it is not possible to control in any way the release of active principle; consequently, these for...
