TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, in particular to a methoclopramide hydrochloride injection and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] The methoclopramide hydrochloride injection is a pharmaceutical preparation, which is mainly used for treating symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, belching, indigestion, stomach fullness, excessive stomach acid and the like caused by various causes, and plays a role in promoting gastrointestinal peristalsis and antiemesis by acting on the nervous system and the digestive system of the human body.
[0003] At present, the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection on the market in China is a sterile aqueous solution prepared by adding methoclopramide and hydrochloric acid, which is prepared by using a hydrochloric acid solution salting process (see Chinese Pharmacopoeia 2020 edition). The molecular structure of methoclopramide hydrochloride contains functional groups such as amino, chlorine atom and methoxy group. These groups have certain chemical activity. For example, the amino group is easy to be oxidized, and may be oxidized under the action of oxygen in the air, resulting in changes in the structure of the drug (referring to methoclopramide hydrochloride), generating oxidation products, thereby affecting the stability and efficacy of the drug; the amide bond may also hydrolyze under certain conditions, especially in an acidic or alkaline environment, the hydrolysis rate may be accelerated, causing the drug to decompose into other products, reducing the drug content, and affecting the quality and efficacy of the drug. Based on the above reasons, methoclopramide is not fully salified, and is easy to precipitate during storage, resulting in unqualified methoclopramide hydrochloride injection with visible foreign matter, which has a large hidden danger in clinical drug use. In addition, the pH value of the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection on the market in China is 2.5-4.5, which is relatively low, and is easy to cause discomfort to patients during clinical use. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a methoclopramide hydrochloride injection with stable product quality and less impurity content during storage. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the problem that the existing methoclopramide hydrochloride injection is easy to precipitate during long-term storage, the present application provides a methoclopramide hydrochloride injection and a preparation method thereof. By adding hydroxypropyl-gamma-cyclodextrin and a cosolvent to the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection, the two can significantly improve the stability of the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection after long-term storage through synergistic effect, and further reduce the content of impurities in the injection after long-term storage.
[0005] To solve the above technical problems, the technical scheme provided by the present application is as follows:
[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a methoclopramide hydrochloride injection, which comprises the following components: methoclopramide, hydrochloric acid solution, hydroxypropyl-gamma-cyclodextrin, cosolvent, sodium chloride, pH adjuster and water for injection; the cosolvent comprises at least one of an alcohol solvent or an amide solvent.
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection provided by the application has a unique cyclic structure, a relatively large cavity and good biocompatibility, and can form an inclusion compound with methoclopramide hydrochloride (methoclopramide and hydrochloric acid solution form a salt), so as to wrap the drug molecules in the cavity, thereby increasing the solubility of the drug in water to a certain extent, protecting the methoclopramide hydrochloride from the influence of external environmental factors (such as light, heat, oxygen, etc.) through the inclusion effect, reducing the degradation and deterioration of the drug, and helping to improve the stability and bioavailability of the injection during storage. Although the addition of hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin can improve the solubility of methoclopramide hydrochloride to a certain extent and reduce the precipitation of methoclopramide hydrochloride in the short term, methoclopramide hydrochloride will inevitably precipitate after long-term storage, and the impurity content will also increase significantly. Through a large number of experiments, it is found that the addition of a cosolvent to the injection containing hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin can significantly improve the poor stability of the injection after long-term storage.
[0008] It is found through further research that the alcohol solvent or amide solvent can have a synergistic effect with hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, greatly improving the solubility and stability of methoclopramide hydrochloride, thereby solving the problem of precipitation of the injection after long-term storage. The alcohol solvent or amide solvent can also be used as a drug dissolving medium, so that methoclopramide hydrochloride can be uniformly dispersed in water for injection, facilitating injection use, and ensuring rapid release and absorption of the drug in the body.
[0009] Preferably, the methoclopramide is added in an amount of 4.3 mg / mL to 4.6 mg / mL.
[0010] Preferably, the hydrochloric acid solution has a mass concentration of 3% to 6%.
[0011] Preferably, the hydrochloric acid solution is added in an amount of 9 mg / mL to 18 mg / mL.
[0012] Methoclopramide hydrochloride formed by methoclopramide and a hydrochloric acid solution is a dopamine receptor antagonist, which can act on the gastrointestinal tract and the central nervous system, and has pharmacological effects such as antiemesis and promotion of gastrointestinal peristalsis, and is a key component for the injection to exert efficacy.
[0013] Preferably, the hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin is added in an amount of 11 mg / mL to 13 mg / L.
[0014] Preferably, the cosolvent is added in an amount of 4.5 mg / mL to 5.5 mg / L.
[0015] Preferably, the sodium chloride is added in an amount of 7 mg / mL to 8 mg / mL.
[0016] The sodium chloride in the present application is used as an osmotic pressure regulator, and can make the osmotic pressure of the injection solution similar to that of human plasma in a specific concentration range, thereby reducing the discomfort during injection and avoiding damage to blood vessels and cells.
[0017] The present application defines the amount relationship among metoclopramide, hydrochloric acid solution, hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, a co-solvent and sodium chloride, which can further improve the solubility of metoclopramide hydrochloride, and also solve the problem of precipitation of metoclopramide hydrochloride injection during long-term storage; and the preferred ratio prevents the increase of impurities in the injection solution, thereby greatly improving the stability of the injection solution.
[0018] Preferably, the alcohol solvent includes at least one of ethanol, propylene glycol or polyethylene glycol.
[0019] The preferred alcohol solvent in the present application has good solubility and volatility, can be miscible with water and many organic solvents, has moderate polarity, and can form hydrogen bonds and other intermolecular interactions with the molecules of metoclopramide hydrochloride and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, thereby increasing the solubility of the drug and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin in water for injection, and also helping the dispersion and stability of the drug in the injection solution.
[0020] Preferably, the amide solvent includes at least one of dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethylacetamide (DMA).
[0021] The preferred amide solvent in the present application is a strong polar organic solvent, has good solubility and co-solvent effect, can be miscible with water and many organic solvents, and can form specific interactions with the molecules of metoclopramide hydrochloride and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, thereby increasing the solubility of the drug and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin.
[0022] Preferably, the co-solvent includes alcohol solvent and amide solvent in a mass ratio of (3-4):1.
[0023] The preferred co-solvent in the present application can strengthen its interaction with the molecules of metoclopramide hydrochloride, wrap the drug molecules and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, increase the synergistic effect of the co-solvent and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, improve the solubility of the drug in the injection solution, and also has a certain protective effect on the drug and hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, thereby reducing the degradation of the drug during storage.
[0024] Preferably, the pH regulator includes at least one of sodium hydroxide, sodium carbonate, sodium acetate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium citrate, phosphate buffer, acetate buffer or citrate buffer.
[0025] Preferably, the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection solution has a pH of 4 to 7, and more preferably 6 to 7.
[0026] After methoclopramide hydrochloride is formed into a salt, it has a high solubility in a specific pH range, and the degree of ionization of the drug is not easily changed, so it is not easy to precipitate. In addition, the pH value of human blood is usually between 7.3 and 7.5, and the specific pH range of the injection solution can effectively reduce the irritation to blood vessels and tissues, ensuring the stability and effectiveness of the drug.
[0027] In a second aspect, the application provides a preparation method of the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection solution, comprising the following steps:
[0028] S1, under an inert atmosphere, sequentially adding the prescription amount of 75% to 85% of water for injection, methoclopramide, hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, hydrochloric acid solution, cosolvent and sodium chloride into a preparation tank for mixing, adding water for injection to the total preparation amount, adding a pH adjuster, and obtaining a methoclopramide hydrochloride liquid;
[0029] S2, filtering the methoclopramide hydrochloride liquid, and filling and sealing it into an ampoule under an inert atmosphere, and sterilizing to obtain a methoclopramide hydrochloride injection solution.
[0030] The preparation method of the methoclopramide hydrochloride injection solution provided by the application further improves the solubility of the injection solution by controlling the addition sequence of methoclopramide, hydroxypropyl-γ-cyclodextrin, hydrochloric acid solution, cosolvent and sodium chloride, and the distribution ratio of water for injection. After long-term storage, the stability of methoclopramide hydrochloride is excellent and no precipitation occurs. The mixing and filling of the raw materials are carried out under an inert atmosphere, which further improves the long-term stability of the injection solution, ensures that it will not degrade and deteriorate after long-term storage, controls the increase of impurities in the injection solution, and thus effectively improves the quality and efficacy of the injection solution.

[0035] Further preferably, in S2, the pore size of the first-stage polyether sulfone filter core in the two-stage polyether sulfone filter core is 0.45 µm, and the pore size of the second-stage polyether sulfone filter core is 0.22 µm.
[0036] The application adopts the secondary polyether sulfone filter core with specific pore size to filter in sequence, which can not only ensure the qualified bacterial and endotoxin content of the product, but also ensure the qualified particulate and visible foreign matter of the product, and the activated carbon is not used in the production process, thereby reducing the pollution to the clean production area, reducing the environmental protection pressure, reducing the impurities and insoluble particles possibly introduced by the activated carbon, and being beneficial to further improve the effectiveness, safety and stability of the product quality.
[0037] For example, in S2, the ampoule is a sterilized borosilicate glass ampoule.
[0038] Preferably, in S2, the volume content of oxygen in the ampoule is ≤3%.
[0039] Preferably, in S2, the sterilization temperature is 120-125 DEG C, and the sterilization time is 15-20 min.
[0040] The sterilization condition provided by the application improves the impurity level of the product and also improves the sterile guarantee level of the product.
[0041] The preparation method of the metoclopramide hydrochloride injection provided by the application improves the storage stability of the metoclopramide hydrochloride injection, the increase of impurity content is not obvious in the stability and acceleration investigation test, and the injection does not precipitate after long-term storage, thereby improving the production efficiency, reducing the production cost, facilitating the industrialized production, and having a wide application prospect.
