Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical excipients technology, and specifically relates to an inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] Pregelatinized starch is a pharmaceutical excipient prepared by modifying starch through chemical or physical methods. Compared to starch, pregelatinized starch has better flowability and compressibility, and can be used as an excipient for direct compression of powder into tablets. Inorganic salts, as an important pharmaceutical excipient, are often used in combination with pregelatinized starch in tablet formulations.

[0003] Currently, the combined approach mainly involves first preparing pregelatinized starch using methods such as wet heat treatment, mechanical activation, ethanol-alkali method, and microwave method. Then, the pregelatinized starch is physically mixed with inorganic salts and other components, followed by dry or wet granulation and tableting, or direct tableting of the powder. This preparation method for pregelatinized starch is time-consuming, energy-intensive, complex, requires sophisticated equipment, and results in high production costs for enterprises.

[0004] Considering the application scenarios of pregelatinized starch and inorganic salts, exploring a method for preparing a mixed excipient that combines the functions of both raw materials and is convenient to use has become an urgent problem to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides an inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient, its preparation method and application. The co-treated pregelatinized excipient retains the functions of the pregelatinized starch and the inorganic compound, while improving the powder properties of the prepared powder and enhancing the applicability of the formulation. Moreover, the preparation method is simple and helps to reduce production costs.

[0006] A first aspect of this invention provides a method for preparing an inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient, comprising: mixing pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides with water, and then mixing the mixture with starch; placing the mixture in a microwave reactor for microwave treatment; and drying the microwave-treated product. The mixing order of the pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides with water and starch is crucial. If starch and water are mixed first, the overall viscosity of the liquid will increase. If the pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides are then added, the increased resistance of the liquid may prevent them from mixing evenly with the starch.

[0007] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the mass ratio of pharmaceutical inorganic salt and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxide, water and starch is 1:4 to 16:0.25 to 5.

[0008] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the pharmaceutical inorganic salt is selected from sodium carbonate, calcium carbonate, calcium hydrogen phosphate dihydrate, tricalcium phosphate, or calcium sulfate dihydrate.

[0009] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the pharmaceutical inorganic oxide is silicon dioxide.

[0010] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, the starch is selected from corn starch, potato starch or wheat starch.

[0011] According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, in the microwave processing, the time and frequency of the microwave processing are adjusted so that the microwave energy obtained per gram of starch is 1310J to 21840J.

[0012] In a second aspect, the present invention provides an inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient prepared according to the aforementioned method.

[0013] In a third aspect, the present invention provides a pharmaceutical formulation comprising the aforementioned inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient.

[0014] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides the application of the aforementioned inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient in dry or wet granulation.

[0015] In a fifth aspect, the present invention provides the application of the aforementioned inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipient in direct powder compression.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0017] The preparation method provided by this invention is the first to pregelatinize a mixture of starch and pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides, resulting in a pregelatinized excipient co-treated with inorganic compounds and starch. This method retains the functions of both the pregelatinized starch and the inorganic compounds as pharmaceutical excipients while improving the powder's flowability, compressibility, and disintegration properties of solid dosage forms prepared using it. The preparation method is simple, requires minimal equipment, and the resulting co-treated excipient can be used as a whole as a raw material for dry / wet granulation and direct powder compression. This is of great significance for enterprises to simplify production steps, improve production efficiency, and reduce production costs. Attached Figure Description

[0109] For the samples MT of Examples 1 and 2 above 1310 -SC1MS1-UW4、MT 21840 Electron microscopy (SEM) was performed on the SC1MS1-UW4 to analyze the particle size distribution and powder properties of samples from Examples 1-144. The results are shown in [Figure number missing]. Figure 1 The method is as follows:

[0110] 1. Instruments: Hitachi SU-8100 scanning electron microscope (Japan); Dandong Baite BT-2006 laser particle size analyzer; Baishan Jiujiu GJ03-09 powder comprehensive characteristic tester.

[0111] 2. SEM detection conditions: 2kV accelerating voltage, 500x amplification.

[0112] 3. Powder properties testing items:

[0113] (1) Loose density (ρ) 松Fixed volume method: Place the sample above a vibrating sieve, turn on the sieve, and under the action of vibration, the sample passes through the built-in sieve and fills a graduated cylinder with a fixed volume of 25 ml. Scrape off the excess powder, weigh the total weight of the powder and the container, and subtract the weight of the container to obtain the weight of the loosely packed powder (M). 松 (In triplicate)

[0114] ρ 松 =M 松 / 25

[0115] (2) Tap density (ρ) 振 ): Fixed mass method. Weigh approximately 10.0g (M 振 The sample was placed in a graduated cylinder with a capacity of 25 ml, and the rotation speed was set to 300 r / min for 10 min. After vibration, the volume of the sample in the graduated cylinder was read and recorded as the tapped volume (V). 振 ).

[0116] ρ 振 =M 振 / V 振

[0117] (3) Carr index and Hausnerby

[0118] The compressibility of powders reacted with the Karl elliptic index and the flowability of powders reacted with the Hausner-Nabi index can be calculated using the following formulas.

[0119] Cartesian exponent = (ρ 振 -ρ 松 ) / ρ 振

[0120] Hausnerbi = ρ 振 / ρ 松

[0121] It is not difficult to find that, such as Figure 1 In the SEM test results, MT 1310 The corn starch granules of -SC1MS1-UW4 exhibited water absorption and swelling, with a significant increase in volume. While the surface became uneven, it maintained its spherical shape, and a small amount of flocculent sodium carbonate crystals were adsorbed onto the surface. MT 21840 As the energy value imparted to corn starch by microwaves increases, some starch granules begin to lose their spherical shape and break into irregular fragments. A large amount of sodium carbonate crystal flocculents are adsorbed on the surface of the fragments.

[0128]

[0129] As shown in Table 2, the Dv10, Dv50, and Dv90 values ​​represent the particle size when the cumulative particle percentage is 10%, 50%, and 90%, respectively. In Examples 1-144, the Dv10, Dv50, and Dv90 values ​​all show a gradually increasing trend with the increase of microwave energy applied to the starch, indicating a gradual increase in the degree of starch particle swelling, breakage, and reagglomeration. Simultaneously, the mass ratio of pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides, and water to starch also has a certain influence on the particle size of the co-treated excipients, but the effect of microwave energy on particle size is more significant.

[0135]

[0136]

[0137] As shown in Table 3, the powder properties of the samples prepared in Examples 1-144 showed a decreasing trend in angle of repose, Hausner ratio, and Karl Fischer index as the microwave energy imparted to starch increased, indicating an increasing trend in powder flowability and compressibility. Meanwhile, the mass ratio of pharmaceutical inorganic salts and / or pharmaceutical inorganic oxides, and water to starch also had some influence on the powder properties of the co-treated excipients, but the microwave energy had a more significant impact, which is consistent with the above conclusions regarding particle size.

[0138] Compression of blank effervescent tablets based on sodium carbonate-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipients prepared in Examples 1-8 and 17-32.

[0139] The sodium carbonate-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipients from Examples 1-8 and 17-32 were tableted according to the formulation in Table 4. The relevant inspection indicators are shown in the table.

[0140] Compression of blank sheets based on inorganic compound-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipients from Examples 9-16 and 33-144.

[0141] The inorganic compounds-starch co-treated pregelatinized excipients from Examples 9-16 and 33-144 were tableted according to the formulation in Table 5, and the relevant inspection indicators are shown in the table.

[0146] Excipient Name Proportion(%) Co-processing pregelatinized auxiliary materials 100

[0147] The following methods were used to prepare blank effervescent tablets: The co-treated pregelatinized excipients from Examples 1-8 and 17-32 were weighed according to the formulations in Table 4 as the basic excipients. The tablets were directly compressed to a weight of 350 mg, a diameter of 12.0 mm, a thickness of 3.5 mm, and a hardness controlled at 8-10 kg. Similarly, the co-treated pregelatinized excipients from Examples 9-16 and 33-144 were weighed according to the formulations in Table 5 as the basic excipients. The tablets were directly compressed to a weight of 350 mg, a diameter of 12.0 mm, a thickness of 3.5 mm, and a hardness controlled at 8-10 kg.

[0148] Determination of disintegration time: One tablet of each of the tablets prepared according to the above prescription was tested for disintegration time according to the method for determining the disintegration time of ordinary tablets in Part IV of the Chinese Pharmacopoeia.

[0149] Table 6. Disintegration Time of Tablets

[0150]

[0151]

[0152]

[0153]

[0154]

[0155]

[0156] It can be seen that as the energy value imparted to starch by microwaves increases, the disintegration time of the compressed tablets is prolonged. Therefore, manufacturers can control the degree of starch pregelatinization by changing the microwave energy parameters to meet the disintegration time requirements of different tablets. This may have certain application value in oral solid sustained-release formulations and orally disintegrating tablets.

[0157] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details in the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
