Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of pharmaceutical manufacturing technology, specifically to a method for producing Pudilan anti-inflammatory tablets. Background Technology

[0002] Pudilan is a very common traditional Chinese medicine with the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, anti-inflammatory and swelling-reducing. It is used to treat inflammation caused by "internal heat" accompanied by "redness, swelling, heat and pain". Currently, most Pudilan anti-inflammatory tablets are prepared using a wet granulation process: Scutellaria baicalensis, dandelion, Viola yedoensis and Isatis indigotica are extracted, concentrated and prepared into an extract. Scutellaria baicalensis powder and starch are added to the extract and mixed evenly, and then dried in a vacuum dryer for more than 10 hours. The material obtained from the above mixing and drying is then pulverized into a fine powder and sieved. The pulverized fine powder is then added to a wet granulator, stirred and cut, and then 95% ethanol is added. Stirring and cutting are continued until uniformly sized particles are formed. Finally, the particles are transferred to a spray dryer for drying, and after drying, they are granulated and mixed together.

[0003] This process requires mixing the extract with the raw medicinal powder, drying it in an oven, pulverizing it into a fine powder, then granulating it with starch using a wet method, drying it, mixing it all together, and finally compressing it into tablets. This process involves complex procedures, a long production cycle, and loss of effective ingredients. In particular, the production cycle of the product excluding the pre-processing of traditional Chinese medicine is about 11 days, and its final yield is only 85.0% to 90.0%, which is low. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention aims to solve the technical problems existing in the prior art, and innovatively proposes a production method for Pudilan anti-inflammatory tablets, which significantly simplifies the operation process, shortens the production cycle, and sprays the extract into small particles, resulting in a more uniform particle size distribution, higher retention rate of active pharmaceutical ingredients, and improved product quality and production efficiency.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives of this invention, this invention provides a method for producing Puji Lan anti-inflammatory tablets, comprising the following steps:

[0006] Step 1: Prepare raw Scutellaria baicalensis powder; put the weighed Scutellaria baicalensis into a grinder for grinding, sieve the fine powder and sterilize it to obtain raw Scutellaria baicalensis powder;

[0007] Step 2: Prepare Scutellaria baicalensis extract;

[0008] Step 3: Prepare extracts of dandelion, bitter gourd, and isatis root;

[0009] Step 4: Prepare the base powder; Weigh out the starch and the raw Scutellaria baicalensis powder prepared in Step 1 as the base powder, and put them into a spray dryer granulator;

[0010] Step 5: Granulation;

[0011] Mix the extracts from steps 2 and 3 evenly, heat to 60℃~70℃, and transfer to the spray drying granulator's spray carriage. Spray the extract into the base powder through the spray carriage for granulation. Continue drying after spraying.

[0012] Step 6: Granulation and mixing; after drying, the granules are sieved and then placed in a mixer to be mixed with starch and magnesium stearate.

[0013] Step 7: Tableting; Place the mixed granules into a tablet press and compress them into tablets;

[0014] Step 8: Coating; Place the tablets into a coating pan for coating. After coating, cool until the temperature of the coated tablets is the same as the room temperature, and then discharge the material.

[0015] In the above scheme, step 2 also includes the following steps:

[0016] Step 2-1: Extract the Scutellaria baicalensis granules;

[0017] Weigh out the Scutellaria baicalensis granules and put them into the extraction tank. At the same time, put the tailings from the crushing and sieving in step 1 into the extraction tank, add ethanol to soak for 1 to 3 hours, then reflux for 1 to 2 hours and filter.

[0018] The filtered Scutellaria baicalensis residue was refluxed with ethanol for 1-2 hours, filtered again, and both filtrates were pumped into a storage tank for storage.

[0019] Step 2-2: Concentrate the Scutellaria baicalensis extract;

[0020] The Scutellaria baicalensis extract was added to a concentration tank and concentrated to a relative density of 1.1–1.5 to form Scutellaria baicalensis extract.

[0021] In the above scheme, the concentration of ethanol is 60%.

[0022] In the above scheme, step 3 also includes the following steps:

[0023] Step 3-1: Extract dandelion and bitter violet;

[0024] Weigh out dandelion and bitter violet, add dandelion and bitter violet to an extraction tank, add water and boil to extract twice, each time for 1 to 2 hours, filter the decoction, and combine the two filtrates to obtain dandelion and bitter violet extract;

[0025] Step 3-2: Extraction of Isatis root;

[0026] Weigh out the Isatis root and put it into an extraction tank. Add water and boil twice to extract. After each decoction, stop heating and let it soak for 1 to 2 hours. Filter and combine the filtrates to obtain the Isatis root extract.

[0027] Step 3-3: Combine the dandelion and bitter gourd extracts from Step 3-1 and the isatis root extract from Step 3-2 and concentrate them to form an aqueous extract paste.

[0028] In the above scheme: the relative density of the extract is 1.1 to 1.5, and the yield is not less than 35%.

[0029] In the above scheme: In step 4, each shaking of the bag lasts for 15 to 20 seconds, and the interval between shaking the bag is about 180 to 210 seconds.

[0030] In the above scheme: in step 5, the drying temperature is 70℃~80℃, and the drying time is 20~30min.

[0031] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: The aqueous extracts of dandelion, bitter gourd, and isatis root, along with scutellaria baicalensis extract, are mixed and heated to 60-70°C to maintain the fluidity of the extracts. Then, a spray-drying granulator is used to directly spray the extracts onto a base powder formed by mixing starch and raw scutellaria baicalensis powder. This eliminates the need for the steps of mixing, drying, and pulverizing the extracts with the raw scutellaria baicalensis powder, significantly simplifying the operation process. The production cycle for the product, excluding pretreatment of traditional Chinese medicine, is approximately 9 days, shortening the production cycle. Furthermore, the spray-dried extracts result in smaller particles with a more uniform particle size distribution, higher retention of active pharmaceutical ingredients, and a finished product yield of 90%–100%, improving product quality and production efficiency.
