Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to an anti-hyperuricemia drug and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of medicine. Background Art

[0002] Allopurinol was first discovered by Roland K. Robins of Wellcome Research Laboratories (now GlaxoSmithKline) in the UK in 1956. It was first approved by the United States in 1966, and in 1967 Burroughs Wellcome (now GlaxoSmithKline) marketed it under the trade name Commercial sales. Allopurinol tablets are indicated for: ① primary and secondary hyperuricemia, especially hyperuricemia caused by excessive uric acid production; ② recurrent or chronic gout; ③ tophi; ④ uric acid kidney stones and (or) uric acid nephropathy; ⑤ hyperuricemia with renal insufficiency.

[0003] With the improvement of modern living standards, people's lifestyles and diets have also improved, which has led to an increase in the incidence of hyperuricemia. Hyperuricemia is a disease caused by a disorder in the metabolism of purine substances in the body. Persistent high uric acid may cause uric acid crystals and urate crystals to deposit in the renal pelvis, ureter or renal tubules and renal interstitium, causing kidney damage and kidney stones, becoming an invisible killer that endangers human health.

[0004] Allopurinol tablets are a uric acid synthesis inhibitor. Allopurinol and its metabolite oxypurinol can inhibit xanthine oxidase, prevent hypoxanthine and xanthine from being metabolized into uric acid, and thus reduce the production of uric acid. It reduces the uric acid content in blood and urine to a level below solubility, prevents uric acid from forming crystals and depositing in joints and other tissues, and also helps to redissolve uric acid crystals in the tissues of gout patients. Allopurinol also inhibits the synthesis of new purines in the body by acting on hypoxanthine-guanine phosphate nucleic acid transferase. Therefore, allopurinol is a drug with a more definite effect in preventing acute attacks of gout. It is also the only drug that can effectively reduce uric acid production and lower uric acid levels in the human body. As a first-line drug for the clinical treatment of gout, allopurinol is completely absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract after oral administration, reaches peak blood drug concentration in 2 to 6 hours, has a half-life of 14 to 28 hours, and is metabolized into active oxypurinol by the liver with a half-life of 15 to 18 hours.

[0005] According to the instructions for use and dosage of allopurinol tablets in the "Second Batch of Chemical Drug Instructions Published by the State Drug Administration": Common dosage for adults: Initial dose 50 mg once, 1 to 2 times a day, can be increased by 50 to 100 mg per week to 200 to 300 mg a day, divided into 2 to 3 times. Measure blood and urine uric acid levels every 2 weeks. If they have reached normal levels, no more increments will be made. If they are still high, they can be increased again. However, the maximum daily dose shall not exceed 600 mg.

[0006] If 600 mg is taken per day, it must be taken in multiple doses, and the patient is at risk of forgetting. In addition, the adverse reactions of allopurinol tablets in the "Second Batch of Chemical Drug Instructions Published by the State Food and Drug Administration" are as follows: (1) Rash: It may appear as pruritic papules or urticaria. If the rash is widespread and persistent, and symptomatic treatment is ineffective and there is a tendency to worsen, the drug must be discontinued.

[0007] (2) Gastrointestinal reactions: including diarrhea, nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain.

[0008] (3) If leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, anemia, or bone marrow suppression occurs, drug discontinuation should be considered.

[0009] (4) Other symptoms include hair loss, fever, lymphadenopathy, hepatotoxicity, interstitial nephritis and allergic vasculitis.

[0010] (5) There have been reports abroad of several patients suffering sudden death of unknown cause while taking this drug.

[0011] If the condition is serious and multiple medications are required, the adverse reactions will inevitably be more serious. Therefore, if allopurinol is prepared into sustained-release tablets, reducing the number of medications, reducing adverse reactions, and increasing patient compliance are the main issues that need to be solved urgently by medical technology personnel.
