Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of pharmaceutical preparation technology, specifically relating to a trimetazidine hydrochloride tablet and its preparation process. Background Technology
[0002] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance understanding of the overall background of the invention and is not necessarily to be construed as an admission or in any way implying that such information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.
[0003] Trimetazidine hydrochloride (chemical name: 1-(2,3,4-trimethoxybenzyl)piperazine dihydrochloride) is a drug of significant clinical value. Its core mechanism of action is to ensure energy metabolism in ischemic and hypoxic cardiomyocytes, prevent a decline in intracellular ATP levels, maintain intracellular homeostasis, and ensure the proper functioning of ion pumps and normal transmembrane sodium-potassium pump transport. Clinically, this drug is widely used as an adjunct therapy for the symptomatic treatment of stable angina in adult patients who have poor or intolerable control of angina with first-line antianginal therapy. It can also be used as an adjunct symptomatic treatment for dizziness and tinnitus. It effectively increases coronary flow reserve, reduces the frequency of angina attacks, and lowers the dosage of nitroglycerin, without producing significant direct hemodynamic effects, thus occupying an important position in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases.
[0004] With the increasing clinical demand, the formulation development and process optimization of trimetazidine hydrochloride have become a research hotspot in the pharmaceutical field. Tablets, due to their advantages such as convenient administration, precise dosage, and good stability, have become one of the main formulation forms. However, existing trimetazidine hydrochloride tablet preparation technologies and related processes still have many problems that urgently need to be solved, restricting the improvement of product quality and the optimization of clinical application effects. Clinical applications have shown that trimetazidine hydrochloride formulations may cause adverse reactions such as dizziness, lightheadedness, and gastrointestinal discomfort. Some existing formulations, due to inappropriate drug release rates, may lead to excessive fluctuations in blood drug concentration, further increasing the risk of adverse reactions. Furthermore, current research on optimizing the drug release characteristics of trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets is relatively scarce, making it difficult to achieve stable control of blood drug concentration through formulation process improvements to reduce the incidence of adverse reactions.
[0005] Chinese patent CN110279666A discloses a trimetazidine hydrochloride tablet and its preparation method. The method uses a solvent method to mix trimetazidine hydrochloride raw material with a porous carrier, magnesium aluminum silicate, to form a solid dispersion, improving the drug's flowability and compressibility, and is used for direct compression of the powder into tablets. Although existing technologies have provided a certain technical foundation for the preparation of trimetazidine hydrochloride and its pharmaceutical salts, current trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets still have shortcomings in terms of the rationality of the original formulation, the stability of the molding process, and the optimization of drug release characteristics. Therefore, developing a trimetazidine hydrochloride tablet with good dissolution performance and stability, and its preparation process, has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in this field, and has significant clinical and industrial value. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To address the technical problems of existing trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets, such as poor dissolution performance and poor content uniformity, this invention provides a trimetazidine hydrochloride tablet and its preparation process, aiming to achieve rapid and full drug release, improve content uniformity, reduce the risk of adverse clinical reactions, and meet clinical medication needs.

[0008] The preparation process steps of the trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets of the present invention are as follows: (1) Pretreatment of core components: Trimetazidine hydrochloride, β-cyclodextrin, eugenol diglucoside and dithiothreitol were pulverized and sieved respectively; the pulverized β-cyclodextrin was taken and added to 5 to 8 times its weight of purified water, and stirred and dissolved in a water bath at 60 to 70°C to prepare a saturated β-cyclodextrin solution for later use.
[0009] (2) Inclusion and dispersion: The sieved trimetazidine hydrochloride, eugenol diglucoside and dithiothreitol were mixed evenly, and the above β-cyclodextrin saturated solution was added. The mixture was stirred at a constant temperature of 60~70℃ and 200~300r / min for 30~40min to form a dispersion. The dispersion was dried in a vacuum drying oven at 55℃ for 4~6h until constant weight, pulverized and sieved to obtain the inclusion micro powder.
[0010] (3) Mixing to prepare soft material: Mix the encapsulated micro powder with lactose, microcrystalline cellulose and cross-linked sodium carboxymethyl cellulose evenly, add 4%~6% hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose aqueous solution, and stir to prepare a suitable soft material.
[0011] (4) Granulation and drying: After granulating the soft material, dry it at 45~55℃ for 2~3h, control the moisture content of the particles to be 2.0%~3.0%, and then granulate it after drying.
[0012] (5) Total mixing and tableting: Mix the granulated particles with magnesium stearate and micronized silica gel evenly, and then compress the mixture into tablets using a tablet press to obtain trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets.
[0013] It should be noted that the long-term stability of trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets in Examples 1-5 of this invention is qualified.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical advantages of the present invention are as follows: (1) Significantly improved dissolution performance, achieving rapid and sufficient drug release: The trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets of the present invention have a dissolution rate of not less than 90% in 0.05 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution for 30 minutes, which is superior to commercially available formulations and comparative examples 1-8. The present invention effectively improves the solubility and dispersibility of the drug, solves the technical pain points of poor dissolution rate and insufficient release of trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets in the prior art, and ensures that the drug takes effect quickly and exerts a sustained therapeutic effect.
[0015] (2) Excellent content uniformity, ensuring accurate and stable dosage: The relative standard deviation (RSD) of the content uniformity of the trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets prepared by this invention is ≤0.5%, which is better than that of comparative examples 1-8 and commercially available formulations. Through the synergistic optimization of the pretreatment of core components, inclusion dispersion process and subsequent mixing and granulation steps, the problem of drug particle aggregation or uneven distribution is effectively avoided, so that trimetazidine hydrochloride is uniformly dispersed in the tablets, providing accurate dosage assurance for clinical use.

[0096] Commercially available preparation: Trimetazidine Hydrochloride Tablets (Vancelin).
[0097] Trimetazidine Hydrochloride Tablets Dissolution Dissolution and release were determined according to the method for determination of dissolution and release in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (General Chapter 0931, Method II). Dissolution conditions: 900 ml of 0.05 mol / L hydrochloric acid solution was used as the dissolution medium, and the rotation speed was 50 rpm. The procedure was followed, and samples were taken after 30 minutes. Test solution: 10 ml of the dissolution solution was taken, filtered, and the filtrate was collected. Reference solution: An appropriate amount of trimetazidine hydrochloride reference standard was accurately weighed, dissolved in the dissolution medium, and quantitatively diluted to prepare a solution containing approximately 20 μg per ml. The solution was shaken well. Assay: The absorbance of the test solution and the reference solution was measured separately at a wavelength of 234 nm using ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry (General Chapter 0401), and the amount dissolved per tablet was calculated.
[0098] Table 1 Dissolution of Trimetazidine Hydrochloride Tablets Table 1 shows that the trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets of the present invention exhibit significant advantages in dissolution performance. The trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets in Examples 1-5 showed better dissolution efficiencies at all sampling time points than all comparative examples 1-8 and commercially available formulations, reaching over 90% at 30 minutes. Overall, they demonstrated rapid dissolution and a steady improvement, ensuring rapid and complete drug release in vivo. The inclusion effect of β-cyclodextrin, the synergistic effect of eugenol diglucoside and dithiothreitol, and the standardized inclusion process design in the formulation of the present invention are key factors in improving drug dissolution efficiency.
[0099] Trimetazidine Hydrochloride Tablets Content Uniformity The content per tablet, calculated based on the content determination, should comply with the regulations (General Rule 0941). The content should be determined according to the High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) method in the Chinese Pharmacopoeia (General Rule 0512). Test solution: Take 10 tablets of this product, place them in separate 100ml volumetric flasks, add an appropriate amount of water, sonicate to dissolve trimetazidine hydrochloride, dilute to the mark with water, shake well, centrifuge (at 5000 rpm) for 15 minutes, and collect the supernatant. Reference solution: Accurately weigh an appropriate amount of trimetazidine hydrochloride reference standard, dissolve in water, and quantitatively dilute to prepare a solution containing approximately 0.2mg per ml. Chromatographic conditions: Use octadecylsilane-bonded silica gel as the stationary phase; use mobile phase A-mobile phase B (80:20) as the mobile phase (as described in the Related Substances section); detection wavelength is 231nm; injection volume is 10μl. System suitability requirements: The theoretical plate number, calculated based on the trimetazidine peak, should be no less than 3000, and the resolution between the trimetazidine peak and adjacent impurity peaks should meet the requirements. Assay method: Accurately measure the test solution and reference solution, inject them separately into the liquid chromatograph, and record the chromatograms.
[0100] Table 2 Uniformity of Trimetazidine Hydrochloride Tablet Content Table 2 shows that the trimetazidine hydrochloride tablets prepared in Examples 1-5 of this invention exhibit excellent uniformity in content. Trimetazidine hydrochloride is evenly distributed in the tablets, providing a stable and reliable dosage guarantee for clinical use. The scientific proportions of the excipients in the formulation of this invention, as well as the importance of the complete process design of "core component inclusion-dispersion-mixing," effectively avoid the problems of drug particle aggregation or uneven distribution.
