Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, and particularly relates to a stable carvedilol tablet and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Carvedilol, chemically named 1-(9H-carbazol-4-yloxy)-3-[2-(2-methoxyphenoxy)ethylamino]-2-propanol, is a third-generation non-selective adrenergic β-receptor blocker that also blocks α1, β1, and β2 receptors. Clinically, it is used for the treatment of primary hypertension, angina pectoris, and heart failure. With the in-depth research, carvedilol has also been found to have cardiovascular protection, antioxidant, and calcium ion channel blocking effects.

[0003] The carvedilol tablet was first developed by Roche and launched in the United States in 1990. Starch, sucrose, and lactose are widely used fillers in the pharmaceutical industry, and lactose has excellent fluidity, low hygroscopicity, and compressibility. Lactose was used as a filler in the original preparation. However, lactose is prone to directly react with the active substance carvedilol to occur the Maillard reaction, resulting in drug degradation and generating corresponding impurities. Such impurities often continue to increase during the stability study, bringing risks to the quality control of the preparation.

[0004] Chinese Patent Application No. CN201310682021.1 discloses a preparation method of a carvedilol tablet, using lactose as a filler, poloxamer as a surfactant, starch as a binder, talc as a lubricant, and microcrystalline silica as a glidant. After mixing evenly, it is added to a tableting machine to be pressed into tablets, which has the characteristics of rapid release. However, when carvedilol is directly mixed and contacted with lactose, the Maillard reaction is likely to occur to generate impurities.

[0005] Chinese Patent Application No. CN201410447344.7 discloses a preparation process of a carvedilol tablet by a wet granulation process, using microcrystalline cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl starch as a filler and a disintegrant respectively. After premixing, sodium dodecyl sulfate is dissolved in a starch paste as a binder. After wet granulation, the dry granules are mixed with the lubricant magnesium stearate and pressed into tablets. The starch paste as a binder is directly contacted with carvedilol to prepare the soft material, and the high-temperature and high-humidity environment in the drying step makes the Maillard reaction likely to occur during the preparation process to generate impurities.

[0006] Chinese Patent Application No. CN201410736946.4 discloses a preparation method of a freeze-dried tablet of a carvedilol composition. Carvedilol is added to a corn starch-sucrose solution and vacuum freeze-dried to obtain the freeze-dried tablet. The excipients starch and sucrose are both prone to react with carvedilol to generate corresponding impurities.

[0007] The structures of three impurities generated from the Maillard reaction between carvedilol and lactose are as follows Figure 1 shown. The presence of these three impurities will affect the quality of the preparation, reduce the content of carvedilol and the therapeutic effect of the preparation. In summary, in the existing preparation process, the direct contact between lactose, starch or sucrose as fillers and carvedilol increases the risk of generation and increase of Maillard impurities. The research results of the present inventors show that in conventional tablets under high temperature of 60 °C and high temperature and high humidity conditions of 60 °C + RH 75%, Maillard impurities will increase significantly. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a preparation process for carvedilol tablets that avoids the direct contact between carvedilol and lactose to ensure and improve the quality of the preparation and reduce the risk of impurity control. There have been no publicly reported preparation methods and patents for carvedilol tablets that reduce the content of impurities generated by the Maillard reaction before. Summary of the Invention
