Abstract

A solid pharmaceutical preparation, disintegratable in aqueous media, with a flat, foil-shaped, paper-shaped or wafer-shaped administration form, for application and release of active substances in the oral cavity is charac-terized by a content of buprenophine, of an active substance pharmacologically comparable to buprenorphine, or of a therapeutically suitable salt of buprenorphine or the pharmacologically comparable active substance.

Description

Flat pharmaceutical preparation for application and release of buprenorphine or of a pharmacologically comparable substance in the oral cavity, and process for the production thereof The present invention relates to a pharmaceutical preparation for application of buprenorphine or pharmacologically comparable active substances in the region of the oral cavity, respectively the oral mucosa.
More particularly, it relates to a preparation that is adapted to be flat and in the form of a foil-, paper- or wafer-shaped administration form.
Flat active substance carriers have already been developed and produced for various purposes. DE-OS 27 46 414 can be regarded as fundamental to this administration form, said document describing a foil-type tape of active substance, binder and further active substances, with a direct relation existing, by reason of the homogeneous thickness, density and width, between a unit of length of the tape and the dose of active substance contained therein. The advantages of the continuous dosage property have been recognized also by other applicants and have been described in specific individual variants. Thus, DE-PS 36 30 603 claims a flat-shaped carrier material, for example in the form of a separating layer, with an active substance-containing coating, the latter being peelable, in doses, off the carrier material after having been previously separated into dosage units.
The practicability of the flat format in general and the advantages afforded in the manufacture of the adminis-tration form and in the dosing when employing such administration form have been recognized in the prior art.
Moreover, further advantages of such administration forms can be derived such as the fact that, relative to the weight of the administration form, a relatively large surface may be printed on the said administration form, thereby making it possible to increase intake safety, as well as affording the possibility of discrete intake without any liquid being available.
Despite these obvious advantages, such flat administration forms have hitherto hardly been successful. Obviously, the advantage as compared to conventional administration forms does not suffice for many manufacturers of pharmaceutics to develop products of this type comprising the usual active ingredients and to pursue the legal drug approval thereof.
Moreover, existing production machinery and existing know-how cannot be made use of for these novel products; this means that the necessity of large investments would arise.
Despite the above-described advantages of flat, film- or paper-like administration forms, the therapeutic and/or economic advantage in administration of common active substances which are also perorally applicable is apparently not great enough as compared to conventional tablets to justify the costs of switching over to these administration forms.
One of the substances that are little suitable for peroral administration is buprenorphine, an opiate which has been successfully used in the therapy of pain for years. After peroral application it is hardly bioavalable, i.e. it appears in the blood circulation only to the vary small extent of a few percent of the dose taken (McQuay & Moore, in: Bupenorphine, ad. Cowan & Lewis, New York 1995).
Presumably, the reason for the lack in bioavailability lies in the extensive decomposition of the substance during the first liver passage following gastrointestinal absorption ("first-pass effect°). A possibility of avoiding the first-pass effect in oral administration is to bring the active substance to absorption already on the oral mucosa. In order to enter the central systemic circulation, an active substance which enters into the blood via the oral mucosa does not have to first pass the portal system and thus, in concentrated form, the liver, which metabolizes the active substance. A prerequisite for buccal or sublingual application, however, is a sufficient permeability of the oral mucosa to the active substance, taking into consideration the required dose. Permeability in turn depends to a large extant on the physicochemical properties of the active substance. Since buprenorphine is effective in very small doses, and since it has the required physicochemical characteristics, buccal or sublingual application is very attractive.
In fact, apart from injectable administration forms there are - at least in Germany - no commercially available peroral administration forms, but only so-called sublingual tablets, which comprise buprenorphine (Temgesic~ sub-lingual). It is true that such tablets take into account the fact that sublingual application of the active substance is preferable to peroral administration - even though they do so above all by way of their intake directions as only these suggest the sublingual administration, not the tablet itself. However, they offer a vehicle which has considerable drawbacks for this purpose of application. Among these disadvantages is, firstly, the not inconsiderable disintegration time, which in the case of pressed tablets is at least several minutes even under favorable conditions, and in the case of the commercially available tablets is typically about 5 to 10 minutes. For patients suffering from severe, acute pain this disintegration time results in an unwanted delay of the onset of action; in a substitution or withdrawal therapy, however, this puts a strain on the medicinal personnel with respect >ra the time requixed for ad~ui,nigtratiaa, since the persoasao7. must supervise that the tablets ors used as d~.raCted and antst prevent proper s~oval of tte hon-clisiateQraCed tsxblet frcma the mouth. I~rtb,er disadvanta,las of the tablet are the fareigr~ body ee~ns$tion occurring dazria~ the dis~.~ategratioai time, but a*so tho great vaz~fabxlity is the extent of subliagua* absorption, oPhich ie caused by the active substance duriaQ or after di.sintreQratioa of the tablet having for the most part np direct contact with the ora* mueasa, bat baiaQ released into the sa2iva; the saliva, hoara~rer, cars be reta3.aad is the oral cavity for a very variable time, which is more or less haphazard, before being swa*~,a9aed.
