Abstract
A chewable taste masked formulation comprising a therapeutic agent (or drug) containing at least one basic group or atom optionally in the form of a salt, which is reacted with a polymer containing at least one acidic group to form a complex.
Description
TASTE MASKED COMPOSITION CONTAINING A DRUG/POLYMER COMPLEX
The presenl invention relates to therapeutic agent/polymer matrix complexes which have improved t. ste ~ a~Lli~Li~.
Many Ll~ ~r~ y active substances have an unpleasant taste or cause a numbing effect when adl~ L~I~d by mouth to a patient.
Many Lll~la~ uLic a~llL/L~ol~ cl~mh;no~ nc are known but the therapeutic âgent is coated with the polymer. The problem with such products is that Lhey are liable to be broken when orally ~ r ~d by the patient, palLi~ulally when chewed, thereby allowing the therapeutic agent to be in direct contact with the mouth, thus the toste and/or numbing sensation of the therapeutic agent is no longer effectively masked.
A further problem with Cv~01~ of methacrylic acid and methyl methacrylate is Lhat when complexed with therapeutic agents the product formed tends to be a gum.
One particular drug"~im ' yvl~ tu, is useful for treating the symptoms associated with travel sickness. ~;...~..llr,' has a numbing taste.
A preferred fnrrn~ th~n of dilh~.hydlilla~r~ is in the form of a chewing gum or a chewable tabiet which means that the ~u~ I coaLing techniques using 20 polymers such as anionic copolymers based on Illt:Llla.,-~liC acid and m~L~ Lha~lylat~ (such as Eudragit), are ineffective in masking the numbing tastebecause the ~ .lLi~llàl polymer coated ' ' y,' complex is broken down when chewed by the patient.
Another drug, paroxetine, is useful for the treatment of iPrr~.cci~m panic 25 disorders and obssessive ~ JUIi>i~. disorders. Paroxetine has an unplea~cant bitLer tashe.
The present invention provides a therapeutic z~,~l.L/yOI~ ,I complex with superior tash masking qualities and can be prepared as a powder which is more easily formulahd with otherexcipients to form cu,,~. I r~... -1-~;....~
Accordingly, the present invention provides a chewable tash masked r.... 1 ~ l " . C~ .g a Lh~ t;u~;~, agent (or drug) containing at least One basic - group or atom optionally in the form of a salt which is reachd with a polymer containing at least one acidic group to form a complex.
A preferred L~l~la~ agent is ~" ' ~lli-l~h or paroxetine.
The herm "basic group or atom" is understood to mean â group capable of donating electrons. Such groups include optionally substituhd amino groups or optionally substituted thio groups.
Suitable salts of therapeutic agents include acid addition salts which are suiLably rl ~ v~ lly acceptable salts such as the hydrochloride hemi-hydrahe for I
2l7772' wo 95/1515~ r~ 903 paroxetine.
It should ~e ~ .l that in cases where the dru~ comprises two active C~ i e- a basic one and an acidic one in the form of a salt, such as d~ yl' which is the 8-chlorotheophylline salt of ~i~)}lc~ ydl~ c then the S ter~n therapeutic agent in the form of a salt extends to both of tbese ~ F - ~Suitable polymers include pol~ l..t~," such as Eudragit L and S which are copolymers of ' ~1;-, acid and methyl l~ yld~C and have a mean molecular weight of about 135,000.
The term "acidic group" is understood to mean a group capable of receiving 10 electrons such as a carboxylic acid group.
The complexes of therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) with polymers can be in different weight ratios. For paroxetine and dimenhydrinate, the complexes are preferably in a weight ratio of therapeutic agent to polymer of 1:0.8 to 1:1.5.
Preferably the weight ratio is 1:1.
The ~ of complexes of tberapeutic agents (including salts thereof~
with polymers may suitably be ca~ied out by dissolving the polymer and the therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) in suitable solvents, such as iso-propanol.
ethanol or diethyl ether, optionally at elevated ~ ulllrc such as 40C, then forexample adding a 1, ~ g solvent such as n-hexane om,v~l~o.~.~;l.& the solvent0 and triturating the residue with a suitable solvent such as acetone. The resulting ;~d complex is suitably filtered and dried.
Al~.ll~liivcly, such complexes may be prepared by suspending and mixing the therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) and the polymer in water at ambient or elevated . such as 25 to 60C, preferably 50C to 60C, for 5 to 24 hrs.
25 The resulting complex is suitably filtered and dried.
Complexes of tberapeutic agents (including salts thereof) and polymers may be formulated into c~ , ' chewable dosage forms such as chewable tablets.
candies, chewing gums, or soft chewable gelatin capsules using techniques generally known in the art or methods described or analogious to those described in the 30 exat~ples.
Preferably ' ' ~,' /poly.l.~. complexes may be in the form of chewing gums or chewable tablets and ~UAC~ Oly~ complexes may be in the form of chewable tablets or chewing gums.
The following examples are illustrative of the present invention.
Example 1 The Complex of D ' ~.' and Copolymer of Ir.~ l.,.ylic acid and methyl ~ dl.l~ ' ' (CDC), was obtained by stepwise dissolving 10 g of Copolymer (Eudragit L) and 10 g of d;lll~.l}l,~' ' in 100 ml of ;so~,lul ~1, which was heated
The presenl invention relates to therapeutic agent/polymer matrix complexes which have improved t. ste ~ a~Lli~Li~.
Many Ll~ ~r~ y active substances have an unpleasant taste or cause a numbing effect when adl~ L~I~d by mouth to a patient.
Many Lll~la~ uLic a~llL/L~ol~ cl~mh;no~ nc are known but the therapeutic âgent is coated with the polymer. The problem with such products is that Lhey are liable to be broken when orally ~ r ~d by the patient, palLi~ulally when chewed, thereby allowing the therapeutic agent to be in direct contact with the mouth, thus the toste and/or numbing sensation of the therapeutic agent is no longer effectively masked.
A further problem with Cv~01~ of methacrylic acid and methyl methacrylate is Lhat when complexed with therapeutic agents the product formed tends to be a gum.
One particular drug"~im ' yvl~ tu, is useful for treating the symptoms associated with travel sickness. ~;...~..llr,' has a numbing taste.
A preferred fnrrn~ th~n of dilh~.hydlilla~r~ is in the form of a chewing gum or a chewable tabiet which means that the ~u~ I coaLing techniques using 20 polymers such as anionic copolymers based on Illt:Llla.,-~liC acid and m~L~ Lha~lylat~ (such as Eudragit), are ineffective in masking the numbing tastebecause the ~ .lLi~llàl polymer coated ' ' y,' complex is broken down when chewed by the patient.
Another drug, paroxetine, is useful for the treatment of iPrr~.cci~m panic 25 disorders and obssessive ~ JUIi>i~. disorders. Paroxetine has an unplea~cant bitLer tashe.
The present invention provides a therapeutic z~,~l.L/yOI~ ,I complex with superior tash masking qualities and can be prepared as a powder which is more easily formulahd with otherexcipients to form cu,,~. I r~... -1-~;....~
Accordingly, the present invention provides a chewable tash masked r.... 1 ~ l " . C~ .g a Lh~ t;u~;~, agent (or drug) containing at least One basic - group or atom optionally in the form of a salt which is reachd with a polymer containing at least one acidic group to form a complex.
A preferred L~l~la~ agent is ~" ' ~lli-l~h or paroxetine.
The herm "basic group or atom" is understood to mean â group capable of donating electrons. Such groups include optionally substituhd amino groups or optionally substituted thio groups.
Suitable salts of therapeutic agents include acid addition salts which are suiLably rl ~ v~ lly acceptable salts such as the hydrochloride hemi-hydrahe for I
2l7772' wo 95/1515~ r~ 903 paroxetine.
It should ~e ~ .l that in cases where the dru~ comprises two active C~ i e- a basic one and an acidic one in the form of a salt, such as d~ yl' which is the 8-chlorotheophylline salt of ~i~)}lc~ ydl~ c then the S ter~n therapeutic agent in the form of a salt extends to both of tbese ~ F - ~Suitable polymers include pol~ l..t~," such as Eudragit L and S which are copolymers of ' ~1;-, acid and methyl l~ yld~C and have a mean molecular weight of about 135,000.
The term "acidic group" is understood to mean a group capable of receiving 10 electrons such as a carboxylic acid group.
The complexes of therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) with polymers can be in different weight ratios. For paroxetine and dimenhydrinate, the complexes are preferably in a weight ratio of therapeutic agent to polymer of 1:0.8 to 1:1.5.
Preferably the weight ratio is 1:1.
The ~ of complexes of tberapeutic agents (including salts thereof~
with polymers may suitably be ca~ied out by dissolving the polymer and the therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) in suitable solvents, such as iso-propanol.
ethanol or diethyl ether, optionally at elevated ~ ulllrc such as 40C, then forexample adding a 1, ~ g solvent such as n-hexane om,v~l~o.~.~;l.& the solvent0 and triturating the residue with a suitable solvent such as acetone. The resulting ;~d complex is suitably filtered and dried.
Al~.ll~liivcly, such complexes may be prepared by suspending and mixing the therapeutic agent (including salts thereof) and the polymer in water at ambient or elevated . such as 25 to 60C, preferably 50C to 60C, for 5 to 24 hrs.
25 The resulting complex is suitably filtered and dried.
Complexes of tberapeutic agents (including salts thereof) and polymers may be formulated into c~ , ' chewable dosage forms such as chewable tablets.
candies, chewing gums, or soft chewable gelatin capsules using techniques generally known in the art or methods described or analogious to those described in the 30 exat~ples.
Preferably ' ' ~,' /poly.l.~. complexes may be in the form of chewing gums or chewable tablets and ~UAC~ Oly~ complexes may be in the form of chewable tablets or chewing gums.
