Background technology
Levocarnitine is claimed vitamin B t again, L-carnitine, and levocarnitine is a substance in vivo necessary in the mammal energy metabolism, the generation of energy and transhipment play an important role in the pair cell.It can be brought long-chain fatty acid into mitochondrion and promote its oxidation Decomposition, and for cell provides energy, fatty acid is main energy metabolism substrate in skeletal muscle and the cardiac muscle, and levocarnitine plays requisite effect in skeletal muscle and energy metabolism of myocardial.Clinical being mainly used in prevented and treated carnitine constitutional and Secondary cases levocarnitine shortage, and levocarnitine lacks due to analysing like chronic renal failure patients's hemodialysis; Improve myocardial ischemia, antianginal, clinical manifestation is muscular spasm etc. in cardiomyopathy, skeleton myopathy (bitterly), arrhythmia, hyperlipidemia and hypotension and the dialysis.No matter its pharmacology and physiological action have been carried out extensive research from the eighties in last century both at home and abroad since the listing always, its production and the scope of application are progressively expanded, be food, health product or field of medicaments, all obtained extensive use.The levocarnitine determined curative effect, side effect is little.A tree name is reported with 15g/ day high dose, the generation of almost being free from side effects during the treatment.The U.S. Committee of Experts in 1993 thinks that levocarnitine is " generally recognized as safe is nontoxic ", German hygiene department regulation in 1994, and the levocarnitine use amount need not set upper limit.This product is defined as legal multipurpose nutritive agent by Switzerland, France, the U.S. and World Health Organization (WHO) at present, so levocarnitine more and more causes extensive interest of people and concern.
Levocarnitine is the research and development of Italian Sigma-tau company, puts on market in 1981, and the dosage form of having gone on the market at present has tablet, oral liquid, injection.The levocarnitine raw material has stronger hygroscopicity; Process oral solid formulation and on production process is still packed and stored, all have big difficulty; Therefore be developed at present injection and oral liquid more; Though yet the injection effect rapidly; Bioavailability is high; Be suitable for some patients with severe symptoms; But because its price is higher; And the patient must just can receive treatment in hospital; Therefore this product receives very big restriction in clinical use; Though and the oral liquid taking convenience, its production; Storage; Carry and have many difficulties, it is necessary developing its oral solid formulation for this reason.
Principal agent levocarnitine among the present invention has stronger hygroscopicity; Therefore in order to improve product stability; Need to carry out coating on the surface of slice, thin piece; The damp-proof coating material need be made into aqueous dispersion usually at present; Promptly adopt water to make the coating solution coating of solvent, dissolution phenomena can appear in the product label like this, and unilateral appearance is uneven; Residual moisture is prone to too much in the label in addition, can occur deliquescing, decortication phenomenon in the product put procedure.
The preparation technology of tablet adopts wet granulation technology more at present, is about to raw material pulverizing, sieves, and granulates drying, tabletting together with adjuvant.This technology shortcoming is that levocarnitine raw material hygroscopicity is very strong, and the process of pulverizing, sieve all needs strictly controlled environment humidity, is controlled at below 30% usually.Because levocarnitine has good dissolubility in water, common wet granulation, binding agent can only adopt alcohol to make solvent, after the binding agent that adopts water to make solvent ran into raw material, dissolving promptly appearred in raw material in addition, was difficult to granulate.So not only cost increases, and equipment all needs explosion-proof simultaneously.Boiling granulating technology can adopt water to do the binding agent of solvent, but owing to light weight and serious static after the levocarnitine raw material pulverizing, the grain density of processing is little, fills difficulty.
2007 the 28th the 7th phases of volume of Shanghai medicine; Delivered one piece of research article about levocarnitine tablet recipe and preparation technology; This study tour several method for preparinies, comprising direct compression technology, this technology preparation is levocarnitine 200g; Microcrystalline Cellulose 500g; Micropowder silica gel 3g, magnesium stearate 12g, polyvinylpyrrolidone 30g; Process 1000, the principal agent proportion is 27%.Testing result shows that product hardness is 7Kg, and slice, thin piece disintegrate 17-18 minute, product disintegrate can not reach the requirement of pharmacopeia regulation.Therefore, develop a kind of levocarnitine Film coated tablets and preparation method thereof is the new problem that needs to be resolved hurrily always.
