Description

Stable pharmaceutical composition with excellent consistency and process for preparing the same
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of medicines, and relates to a pharmaceutical composition, in particular to a pharmaceutical composition taking folic acid as an active ingredient, which has excellent process and performance consistency under wide dosage design conditions and has excellent physical and chemical stability.
Background
Folic Acid, N- [4- [ (2-amino-4-oxo-1, 4-dihydro-6-pteridine) methylamino]Benzoyl radical]-L-glutamic acid of formula C 19 H 19 N 7 O 6 Molecular weight 441.40, having the following chemical formula:
Figure DEST_PATH_IMAGE001
folic acid, also known as vitamin B9, is a member of the B group of vitamins and is also an essential cofactor for enzymes involved in DNA and RNA synthesis. Since humans are unable to endogenously synthesize folic acid, deficiency must be prevented by diet and supplementation. Folic acid is present in green vegetables, legumes and some fruits. Inadequate levels of folate can lead to a number of health problems, including cardiovascular disease, megaloblastic anemia, cognitive deficits, and Neural Tube Defects (NTDs). For example, women are often supplemented with folic acid during pregnancy to prevent the development of NTD, and alcoholics are supplemented with folic acid to prevent the development of neurological disorders.
The broad-sense folic acid is a water-soluble vitamin, which is named because the green leaves are rich in pteroylglutamic acid. There are several existing forms in nature, and the parent compound is made up by combining 3 components of pteridine, p-aminobenzoic acid and glutamic acid. Folic acid contains 1 or more glutamyl groups and most naturally occurring folic acid is in the form of polyglutamic acid. The biologically active form of folic acid is tetrahydrofolic acid. Folic acid is yellow crystals, slightly soluble in water, but its sodium salt is very soluble in water. Is insoluble in ethanol. It is easily destroyed in acid solution, unstable to heat, easily lost at room temperature, and easily destroyed by visible light. Folic acid has two modes of active absorption and diffusion passive absorption in vivo, and the absorption part is mainly on the upper part of the small intestine. The absorption rate of reduced folic acid is higher, the more glutamyl, the lower the absorption rate, and glucose and vitamin C can promote absorption. The folic acid after absorption is present in tissues such as intestinal wall, liver, and bone marrow in vivo, and is reduced by folate reductase in the presence of NADPH to tetrahydrofolic acid (THFA or FH4) having physiological activity, which is involved in the synthesis of purine and pyrimidine. Therefore, folic acid plays an important role in the processes of protein synthesis, cell division and growth and has a promoting effect on the formation of normal red blood cells. The deficiency can cause the reduction of hemoglobin production in erythrocytes and the obstruction of cell maturation, resulting in megaloblastic anemia.
Folic acid is a water-soluble B-group vitamin consisting of the residues of pteridine, p-aminobenzoic acid and glutamic acid, and is an essential substance for the growth and reproduction of body cells. It is present in liver, kidney, yeast and green vegetables such as beans, spinach, tomato, carrot, etc. and can be synthesized artificially. Folic acid is acted by dihydrofolate reductase and vitamin B12 to form tetrahydrofolic acid (THFA), which is combined with a plurality of one-carbon units (including CH3, CH2, CHO and the like) to form tetrahydrofolic acid coenzyme, transmits the one-carbon units, and participates in a plurality of important reactions in vivo and the synthesis of nucleic acid and amino acid. Under the action of serine transhydroxylase, THFA forms N-5, 10-methyl tetrahydrofolate, which can promote uracil nucleotide (dUMP) to form thymine nucleotide (dTMP), which can participate in DNA synthesis of cells and promote division and maturation of cells. During DNA synthesis, deoxyuridylic acid is converted to deoxythymidylate, during which the desired methyl group is provided by methylenetetrahydrofolate. When folic acid is deficient, DNA synthesis is slowed, but RNA synthesis is not affected, resulting in the formation of blood cells in the bone marrow with larger cell volume and more immature development of the nucleus, especially erythrocytes, which are most obvious and can have therapeutic effect when supplemented in time. Folic acid is absorbed in the proximal jejunum in a reduced form after oral administration, and appears in the blood 5-20 minutes, reaching a peak after one hour, with t1/2 of about 0.7 hour. The absorption rate of anemia patients is higher than that of normal people. Folic acid enters the liver from the portal vein, is stored in the liver in the form of N5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid and distributed to other tissues and organs, and the storage amount in the liver is about 1/3-1/2 of the total amount of the whole body. About 90% of the therapeutic amount of folic acid is excreted in urine, and 2 hours after bolus injection, 20% to 30% is present in urine.
Folic acid raw material medicines and tablets are collected in the second part of the China pharmacopoeia of the 2020 edition, wherein the tablets comprise two specifications of 0.4 mg/tablet and 5 mg/tablet. As a vitamin, 0.4 mg/tablet of small-size tablets are generally used for preventing congenital neural tube malformation of fetus and for preventing pregnant and lactating women in clinic, and are generally orally administered at a dose of 0.4mg once a day. The large-size tablet of 5 mg/tablet is generally used for folic acid deficiency caused by various reasons, megaloblastic anemia caused by folic acid deficiency and folic acid deficiency caused by chronic hemolytic anemia in clinic, and the dosage of 15-30 mg is generally orally taken by adults every day.
The difference between the drug amount of the 0.4 mg/tablet and the drug amount of the 5 mg/tablet is as much as 12.5 times, and especially for the 0.4 mg/tablet, the extremely low dosage of the drug has a plurality of difficulties in the preparation production, especially the problems of content uniformity and the like. For the huge difference of the drug amount between the specifications, folic acid tablets with two specifications need to be designed into two formulas with larger difference when being prepared, namely, one formula cannot be used for preparing the other tablet by means of equal scaling up or scaling down, for example, the size of the tablet is also limited, the weight of the ideal tablet is usually in the range of 70-300 mg, the tablet weight is difficult to manufacture when being too small, and the tablet weight is difficult to take when being too large, therefore, if the specification of 0.4mg is designed by the weight of 70mg, the tablet weight when the specification of 5mg is prepared by equal scaling up is 875mg, and the huge tablet is extremely difficult for a patient to take.
Therefore, those skilled in the art would expect to provide a method for preparing folic acid tablets with significant difference in drug content but insignificant difference in tablet weight, which would be expected to have excellent consistency of various physicochemical properties between different drug-containing specifications of folic acid tablets prepared by the method, or which would be expected to have good pharmaceutical properties such as excellent stability.

Test example 1: content uniformity
The content uniformity of each folic acid tablet obtained in examples 1 to 5 was measured by referring to the method under the term "content uniformity" of folic acid tablets at page 233 of the second part of the "Chinese pharmacopoeia", 2020 edition, and the 2mg standard tablet was measured by the 0.4mg standard method. The calculated a +2.2S value should be equal to or less than L as specified for L = 15.0.
As a result: the a +2.2S values for all tablets of example 1 are between 3.36 and 5.28 such as a +2.2S =3.74 for the formula 1 tablet of example 1, the a +2.2S values for all tablets of example 2 are between 2.14 and 4.03 such as a +2.2S =3.36 for the formula 1 tablet of example 2, the a +2.2S values for all tablets of example 3 are between 3.51 and 5.16 such as a +2.2S =4.93 for the formula 1 tablet of example 3, the a +2.2S values for all tablets of example 4 are between 3.76 and 5.92 such as a +2.2S =4.64 for the formula 1 tablet of example 4, and the a +2.2S values for all tablets of example 5 are between 2.54 and 4.73 such as a +2.2S =3.31 for the formula 1 tablet of example 5.
From the above results, it can be seen that the content uniformity of each lot of tablets was quite excellent regardless of the large difference in active ingredient or the large difference in tablet weight.
Test example 2: dissolution rate
The determination is carried out according to the standard of the determination method of dissolution and release (the first method of 0931 in the general rules) of the four parts of the Chinese pharmacopoeia, 2020 edition, and according to the condition of the dissolution of the 233 folic acid tablets of the two parts of the Chinese pharmacopoeia, 2020 edition.
Dissolution conditions: taking 500ml of phosphate buffer solution (pH6.8) as a dissolution medium, rotating at 100 rpm, and sampling at 30min and 45min according to the method;
test solution: taking the dissolved liquid, filtering, and taking the subsequent filtrate;
control solution: taking a folic acid control product, precisely weighing, adding a dissolved medium for dissolving, and quantitatively diluting to prepare a solution containing about 10 mug, 5 mug, 1 mug and 0.5 mug in each 1 ml;
the determination is carried out by an HPLC method under the determination item of the folic acid content on page 232 of the second part of China pharmacopoeia of the 2020 edition.
As a result: the dissolution rate of 30min of the total tablet of example 1 is 76.1% + -1.2% (the + -1.2% is the relative standard deviation of the dissolution results of 5 tablets of example 1, the same applies hereinafter), the dissolution rate of 45min is 88.6% + -1.0%, the dissolution rates of two time points of the tablet of formula 1 of example 1 are 76.5% and 88.3% respectively, the dissolution rate of 30min of the total tablet of example 2 is 74.9% + -0.9%, the dissolution rate of 45min is 89.3% + -0.7%, the dissolution rates of two time points of the tablet of formula 1 of example 2 are 75.3% and 89.2% respectively, the dissolution rate of 30min of the total tablet of example 3 is 75.3% + -1.3%, the dissolution rate of 45min is 87.9% + -1.0%, the dissolution rates of two time points of the tablet of formula 1 of example 3 are 76.1% and 88.1% respectively, the dissolution rate of 30min of the dissolution rate of the tablet of the total tablet of example 4 is 76.3% + -1.0%, the dissolution rate of 45min is 90.1.0% and the dissolution rate of the tablet of formula 1.8% respectively, the dissolution rate of the whole tablet in example 5 is 75.2% + -1.1% at 30min, the dissolution rate of the tablet in 45min is 88.4% + -0.9%, and the dissolution rates of the tablet in example 5, formula 1 are 75.7% and 88.7% respectively at two time points. The dissolution rate of all the tablets in the above examples 1-5 is 75.6% + -1.7% in 30min, and the dissolution rate of 45min is 88.9% + -1.3%.
The tablets with the above dissolution rates were prepared in example 1 by adding lactose and the like in different amounts to 7.4mg of intermediate (0.4 mg of folic acid) to prepare tablets with weights of 80mg, 100mg, 150mg, 200mg and 250mg, in example 2 by adding lactose and the like in different amounts to 37mg of intermediate (2 mg of folic acid) to prepare tablets with weights of 80mg, 100mg, 150mg, 200mg and 250mg, in example 3 by adding lactose and the like in different amounts to 92.5mg of intermediate (5 mg of folic acid) to prepare tablets with weights of 120mg, 150mg, 200mg and 250mg, in example 4 and example 5, both tablets with weights of 150mg and folic acid of 0.4mg, 2mg and 5mg were prepared from the same intermediate in different amounts, which was designed similarly to the prescription of 150mg in examples 1 to 3.
From the dissolution rate results, no matter the active ingredients have great difference or the tablet weights have great difference, the dissolution rates of all batches of tablets are quite good, and the difference between different batches of tablets is extremely small; for example, in 5 tablets with equal dosage but large tablet weight difference in example 1, the relative standard deviation of the dissolution results at 30min is only 1.2%, and the relative standard deviation of the dissolution results at 45min is only 1.0%; for example, the deviation of dissolution rate results at 30min is only 1.0%, and the deviation of dissolution rate results at 45min is only 0.8% for the 3 tablets with the same weight but different dosages in example 4; the relative standard deviation of dissolution results at 30min was only 1.7% and at 45min was only 1.3% when all tablets were counted together. These results show that the preparation intermediate with a fixed formula ratio can be prepared in advance by the method of the invention, and then the preparation intermediate is mixed with auxiliary materials such as lactose and the like with different amounts to prepare tablets with different weights, or the preparation intermediate with very different differences is mixed with auxiliary materials such as lactose and the like to prepare tablets with smaller weight difference, and the dissolution rates of the tablets show quite consistent results.

folic acid raw material medicine: pteroic acid 0.248%, other individual impurities all <0.183%, each impurity except pteroic acid and <2.0% (1.164%); example 1 all tablets: pteroic acid is all <0.272%, other individual impurities are all <0.204%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and all <3.0% (<1.743%), for example 1 formulation 1 tablet: 0.258% of pteroic acid, less than 0.198% of other single impurities, and less than 3.0% (1.614%) of each impurity except pteroic acid; example 2 all tablets: pteroic acid is all <0.258%, other individual impurities are all <0.232%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and all <3.0% (<1.852%), for example 2 formulation 1 tablet: pteroic acid 0.251%, all other individual impurities <0.206%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and <3.0% (1.712%); example 3 all tablets: pteroic acid is all <0.284%, other individual impurities are all <0.217%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and all <3.0% (<1.931%), for example 3 formulation 1 tablet: pteroic acid 0.264%, all other individual impurities <0.195%, each impurity except pteroic acid and <3.0% (1.746%); example 4 all tablets: pteroic acid is all <0.278%, other individual impurities are all <0.228%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and all <3.0% (<1.814%), for example 4 formulation 1 tablet: pteroic acid 0.271%, all other individual impurities <0.213%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and <3.0% (1.687%); example 5 full tablets: pteroic acid is all <0.282%, other individual impurities are all <0.208%, each impurity other than pteroic acid and all <3.0% (<1.797%), for example 5 formulation 1 tablet: pteroic acid 0.271%, all other individual impurities <0.185%, each impurity except pteroic acid, and <3.0% (1.736%).
It is well known that pteroic acid in folic acid raw materials and formulations is a characteristic impurity and is a typical indicator of raw material and formulation stability. From the above results, the process of preparing folic acid into tablets of examples 1 to 5 does not cause significant increase of impurities, indicating that the preparation process is stable.
Test example 5: stability test
The tablets obtained in examples 1 to 5 were hermetically packed in a simulated marketed double aluminum blister, and then the tablets were placed in a 40 ℃ incubator for 6 months, and samples were taken at 0 month and 6 months, respectively, and the dissolution rate, content and related substances of the tablets were measured according to the methods of test examples 2 to 4. The data of test examples 2-4 are the 0 month results.
The dissolution result at 6 months has no obvious difference from the dissolution result at 0 month: example 1 total tablet 45min dissolution 88.4% ± 1.2% such as example 1 formulation 1 tablet dissolution 88.6%, example 2 total tablet 45min dissolution 89.1% ± 0.9% such as example 2 formulation 1 tablet dissolution 88.9%, example 3 total tablet 45min dissolution 88.2% ± 0.8% such as example 3 formulation 1 tablet dissolution 87.8%, example 4 total tablet 45min dissolution 89.8% ± 1.0% such as example 4 formulation 1 tablet dissolution 90.2%, example 5 total tablet 45min dissolution 88.6% ± 1.1% such as example 5 formulation 1 tablet dissolution 89.0%.
For each batch of tablets, the percentage of the content of the tablets divided by the content of the tablets in 0 month multiplied by 100% is the residual content after the treatment at 40 ℃ to 6 months, and the result is: example 1 total tablets have a residual 6 month content in the range of 97 to 99% such as 98.4% for example 1 formula 1 tablets, example 2 total tablets have a residual 6 month content in the range of 96 to 99% such as 97.3% for example 2 formula 1 tablets, example 3 total tablets have a residual 6 month content in the range of 97 to 100% such as 99.2% for example 3 formula 1 tablets, example 4 total tablets have a residual 6 month content in the range of 98 to 99% such as 98.7% for example 4 formula 1 tablets, and example 5 total tablets have a residual 6 month content in the range of 98 to 100% such as 99.1% for example 5 formula 1 tablets.
In the aspect of related substances, other single impurities, impurities except pteroic acid and two indexes of the tablet are basically not obviously changed after the tablet is treated at 40 ℃ to 6 months, the change is mainly reflected in the aspect of pteroic acid, and each batch of tablets are increased by a certain program; specifically, for each batch of tablets, the difference obtained by subtracting the content of 0 month from the content of 6 months is divided by the content of 0 months and then multiplied by 100 percent to obtain the pteroic acid increase rate after the treatment at 40 ℃ to 6 months, and the result is that: the 6-month pteroic acid increase rate of the whole tablet of example 1 is in the range of 37 to 46%, for example, 40.2% in the tablet of formula 1 of example 1, the 6-month pteroic acid increase rate of the whole tablet of example 2 is in the range of 28 to 39%, for example, 31.5% in the tablet of formula 1 of example 2, the 6-month pteroic acid increase rate of the whole tablet of example 3 is in the range of 34 to 45%, for example, 36.7% in the tablet of formula 1 of example 3, the 6-month pteroic acid increase rate of the whole tablet of example 4 is in the range of 39 to 44%, for example, 41.7% in the tablet of formula 1 of example 4, and the 6-month pteroic acid increase rate of the whole tablet of example 5 is in the range of 36 to 43%, for example, 39.4% in the tablet of formula 1 of example 5.
The stability test results show that the tablet of the invention has excellent chemical stability.
In addition, all the tablets obtained in the embodiments 1 to 5 of the invention are orange yellow tablets, which meet the property regulation under the item of the folic acid tablets at page 233 of the second part of the Chinese pharmacopoeia of the 2020 edition; according to a method for [ identification ] of folic acid tablets at 233 pages in the second part of the 'Chinese pharmacopoeia' of 2020 edition, all tablets obtained in examples 1 to 5 accord with the specification of the pharmacopoeia; when the dissolution rate of all 2mg and 5mg tablets obtained in examples 1 to 5 is determined by a method of '5 mg specification' under the dissolution rate item of a folic acid tablet at 233 p of the second part of the Chinese pharmacopoeia of 2020 edition, the dissolution rate at 45min is more than 70 percent and both meet the specification; all 0.4mg tablets obtained in examples 1 to 5 have a dissolution rate of more than 75% in 30min, which is determined by the method of 0.4mg standard under the dissolution rate of folic acid tablets 233 of the second part of the Chinese pharmacopoeia of 2020 edition, and all meet the regulations. These results show that various detection indexes of the tablet obtained by the invention completely accord with the pharmacopoeia regulations.
