The present invention provides a topical formulation containing NSAID, particularly diclofenac. The topical formulation is particularly useful for alleviating pain/inflammation associated with infection caused by herpes virus, especially herpes simplex virus (HSV) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV). Similar relief can be achieved where diclofenac is replaced with another non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), which includes, without limitation, etodolac, ketorolac, bromfenac, diflunisal, ibuprofen, fenoprofen, ketoprofen, naproxen, suprofen, meclofenamate, mefenamic acid, piroxicam, meloxicam, indomethacin, sulindac, phenylbutazone, oxyphenbutazone, and tolmetin. The topical formulation is further characterized by its fast relief on pain and/or inflammation associated with infection caused by herpes virus, i.e., a complete relief in no more than seven (7) days after the application of the topical formulation on skins of patients.

The invention belongs to the pharmaceutical preparation field and discloses an osmotic pump type controlled release preparation of etodolac and a preparation method thereof. An osmotic pump tablet comprises a tablet core and a controlled release semipermeable coating film that is coated outside the tablet core and with a hole for releasing drug. The tablet core comprises materials by following weight percentage: 60.9 to 65.5 percent of etodolac, 27.1 to 31.2 percent of osmotic pressure active material, 5.5 to 8.0 percent of an auxiliary material that can ensure the basic remedy to be releasedeasily and the rest is other auxiliary materials. The osmotic pump controlled release semipermeable coating film comprises by materials by following weight percentage: 71.4 to 76.9 percent of semipermeable high molecular coating material and 23.1 to 28.6 percent of pore-forming agent. The manners of pore-forming include a mechanical drilling and a laser boring. By adjusting the prescription of the tablet core and the coating film in the invention, the speed of constant release of drug can be effectively regulated so as to obtain a steadier, lasting and effective blood concentration, thus reducing the side effect of drug and times of dosage, and promoting the compliance of a sufferer. The osmotic pump type controlled release preparation of etodolac of the invention can be widely used for treating diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, arthritis deformans and osteoarthritisetc.

An objective of the present invention is to provide an anti-inflammatory analgesic for external use comprising etodolac as NSAID. The anti-inflammatory analgesic for external use is excellent not only in skin permeability but also in penetratability and diffusivity into tissues present in portions deeper than the skin, can act directly on the muscles or joint tissues with inflammation or pain, and is a little irritant to the skin. The anti-inflammatory analgesic for external use of the present invention is characterized by comprising etodolac and a local anesthetic.

A sustained release formulation of etodolac for once daily administration is described.

The invention relates to a hard capsule which contains etodolac, the substance in the capsule contains glutin as anti-crosslinking agent; the hard capsule which contains etodolac has the advantages of good stability, avoiding the crosslinking reaction on the capsule shell, being applicable to analgesia, diminishing inflammation and antipyretic.

The present invention relates to new process of preparing methyl etodolate as the intermediate of non-steroid indole anti-inflammatory analgesic etodolic acid. The process includes the reaction between 7-ethyl tryptosol and 3-methyl oxy valerate inside mixed solvent of C1-C2 alcohol and benzene in the presence of acid catalyst, separating out acid layer after reaction, neutralizing the organic phase, concentrating, re-crystallizing. The process has high stability, high yield, high product quality, conversion rate near to 100 %, simple operation low cost, environment friendship and other advantages, and is suitable for industrial production.

The novel positively charged pro-drugs of aryl- and heteroarylacetic acids in the general formula(1) 'Structure 1' were designed and synthesized. The compounds of the general formula(1) 'Structure 1' indicated above can be prepared from functional derivatives of tolmetin, zomepirac, etodolac, amfenac, bromofenac, alclofenac, fenclofenac, acemetacin, indomethacin, sulindac, fentiazac, lonazolac, bendazac, 6MNA, ibufenac, and related compounds, (for example acid halides or mixed anhydrides), by reaction with suitable alcohols, thiols, or amines. The positively charged amino groups of these pro-drugs not only largely increases the solubility of the drugs, but also bonds to the negative charge on the phosphate head group of membranes and pushes the pro-drug into the cytosol. The results suggest that the pro-drugs diffuses through human skin 100 times faster than does tolmetin, zomepirac, etodolac, amfenac, bromofenac, alclofenac, fenclofenac, acemetacin, indomethacin, sulindac, fentiazac, lonazolac, bendazac, or related compounds. It takes 2-4 hours for tolmetin, zomepirac, etodolac, amfenac, bromofenac, alclofenac, fenclofenac, acemetacin, indomethacin, sulindac, fentiazac, lonazolac, bendazac, 6MNA, ibufenac, and related compounds to reach the peak plasma level when they are taken orally, but these prodrugs only took about 40-50 minutes to reach the peak plasma level when they are taken transdermally. In plasma, more than 90% of these pro-drugs can change back to the drug in a few minutes. The prodrugs can be used medicinally in treating any NSAIAs-treatable conditions in humans or animals. The prodrugs can be administered not only orally, but also transdermally for any kind of medical treatments and avoid most of the side effects of NSAIAs, most notably GI disturbances such as dyspepsia, gastroduodenal bleeding, gastric ulcerations, and gastritis.

Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are common chronic diseases, which have high morbidity and hard to heal, therefore a long period medicine treatment is required. Life of the patient can be threatened if the long period medicine treatment is not well insisted. Currently, among medicine for arthritis, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are most important. But currently oral preparation account for the most portions, which has more side effects. Etodolac belongs to the indole nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, which play an important role in arthritis treatment. But the current oral preparation has a plurality of side effects, which brings trouble to the long period treatment in patients. Therefore the present invention develops an external preparation of Etodolac, which not only greatly reduces side effects of the drugs, but also applicable for long period treatment of arthritis particularly.

Disclosed is a tape preparation comprising etodolac in an ionic liquid form, which has high transdermal absorbability. Etodolac is reacted with an organic amine compound to produce an ionic liquid of etodolac. By using the ionic liquid, it becomes possible to increase the transdermal absorbability of etodolac. Further for the purpose of enhancing the transdermal absorbability and the tissue penetration ability of an ionic solution of etodolac, the composition of an organic solvent system for the ionic solution of etodolac is investigated, and it is found that a mixed solvent of an alcohol and an ester (1:2 to 2:1) is suitable as the organic solvent. Still further, an appropriate adhesion force can be achieved by properly selecting a softening agent. In this manner, a tape preparation having good transdermal absorbability can be prepared. The tape preparation can exert its pharmacological efficacy rapidly, and is therefore extremely effective for the teatment of a chronic pain such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and lumbago, an inflammatory diseases such as shoulder periarthritis and tendovaginitis, cervical syndrome, a pain induced by a surgery or an injury, or the like.
