Description

Packaging method for improving stability of capsules
Technical Field
The application belongs to the technical field of pharmaceutical preparations, and particularly relates to a packaging method for improving the stability of capsules, capsules adopting the packaging method, and application of double-absorption deoxidizer in preparation of oxygen-sensitive pharmaceutical capsules.
Background
Stability of drugs is a major and difficult point of drug development. Moisture and oxygen can be introduced into the medicine in the links of production, storage, circulation and the like, so that impurities are increased and exceed the quality standard limit, and the stability problem of the medicine can be solved by controlling the preparation process, packaging, drying agent and the like. Oxygen sensitive drugs often require additional excipients, packaging and/or manufacturing steps to enhance stability. Chemical methods (e.g., pH control, addition of antioxidants and control components) are generally first considered as a means of enhancing the stability of oxygen sensitive drugs. The chemical method has the defect that the compatibility of the raw materials and the auxiliary materials can be caused by adding the auxiliary materials, and the re-evaluation can be caused by changing the prescription process of the preparation.
Oxygen sensitive pharmaceutical formulations also require extra care in storage and circulation to be isolated from air, oxygen. Oxygen sensitive active pharmaceutical ingredients are susceptible to oxidation by oxygen to produce impurities, which can lead to too rapid growth of the relevant substances beyond quality standards. Packaging of pharmaceuticals is an important factor in preventing the above-mentioned changes in the storage and distribution of pharmaceuticals from exceeding limits. Generally, after the medicine is packed in the blister, the medicine is directly packed in the packing box, but the blister still has certain permeability after packing due to the barrier property of the packing material, the packing process and the like, and the medicine can still contact moisture or oxygen, so that the medicine is degraded or deteriorated. Sealing the blister sheet in a composite film pouch can further reduce the degree of contact of the drug with moisture and oxygen, but the risk of degradation or deterioration is still higher for highly active pharmaceutical ingredients. In order to further reduce the risk of the quality of the medicine exceeding the quality standard, for tablets or preparations which are not sensitive enough to moisture, a drying agent and/or a deoxidizing agent can be added into the composite film bag to continuously absorb moisture and/or oxygen, so that the stability of the preparation is improved.
However, for oxygen sensitive drug capsules, conventional deoxidizers still cannot solve the problem of impurity growth during long-term storage. And simultaneously adding the drying agent can cause the characteristic change of the capsule shell, thereby affecting the properties of the capsule, the dissolution of medicines and the like.

The results of example 1 and example 2 show that, for the levocetirizine hydrochloride capsules, after the common deoxidizer is added, the moisture content of the capsule content is obviously increased, the capsules are bonded, and the impurity growth speed is faster. Because the common deoxidizer contains moisture, the moisture can be released while absorbing oxygen, so that the content of the capsule or the capsule shell absorbs moisture, even the phenomenon of capsule bonding occurs, the final finished product has obvious quality change, and the phenomenon of capsule bonding under the bottled condition is more prominent. Simultaneously, deoxidizing agent and drying agent are added, although the impurity growth speed is inhibited, the properties and dissolution of the capsule are problematic, because the levocetirizine hydrochloride capsule uses a gelatin hollow capsule, the requirement on environmental moisture is met, and the excessive high and low are not performed; the desiccant has stronger moisture absorption capacity, so that the capsule shell becomes crisp, the dissolution is slowed down, and the product quality is obviously changed. The double-absorption deoxidizer can absorb oxygen, prevent oxidative degradation of the active ingredients of the oxygen-sensitive medicine, has weaker moisture absorption capacity, solves the problem of the growth of relevant substances of the levocetirizine hydrochloride capsule, does not influence the quality of the capsule, and effectively prolongs the shelf life of the capsule.
Example 3
A batch of acetylcysteine capsules was prepared, the batch number was designated as X201101, the capsule shell was an enteric gelatin hollow capsule (anhuihuangshan capsules inc.) and after blister packaging, it was placed in a 30ml composite film bag. The composite film bag package is provided with a group of double-suction deoxidizer which is marked as A, a group of common deoxidizer which is marked as B, a group of common deoxidizer and drier which is marked as C, and a group of non-deoxidizer which is marked as D. The total oxygen uptake of the double-suction deoxidizer and the common deoxidizer is 30ml. The moisture absorption rate of the double-absorption deoxidizer is 8.9 percent and 22.1 percent respectively in 48 hours under the conditions of the temperature of 25+/-2 ℃ and the relative humidity of 50+/-5 percent or 90+/-5 percent; the moisture absorption rate of the common deoxidizer in 48 hours is 1.9 percent and 3.5 percent respectively; the moisture absorption rates of the drying agent for 48 hours were 22.9% and 34.8%, respectively.
Stability tests are respectively carried out to examine the quality changes of the finished products under acceleration conditions (40 ℃ +/-2 ℃ and RH75% +/-5 ℃) and long-term conditions (25 ℃ +/-2 ℃ and RH60% +/-10 ℃).

The result shows that after the common deoxidizer is added into the acetylcysteine capsule, the moisture content of the capsule content is obviously increased, the capsule is bonded, and the impurity growth speed is faster. Because the common deoxidizer contains moisture, the moisture can be released while absorbing oxygen, so that the content of the capsule or the capsule shell absorbs moisture, even the phenomenon of capsule bonding occurs, and the final finished product has obvious quality change. Simultaneously, deoxidizing agent and drying agent are added, although the impurity growth speed is inhibited, the properties and dissolution of the capsule are problematic, because the acetylcysteine capsule uses an enteric gelatin hollow capsule, the requirement on environmental moisture is met, and the overhigh and overlow are not possible; the desiccant has stronger moisture absorption capacity, so that the capsule shell becomes crisp, the dissolution is slowed down, and the product quality is obviously changed. The double-absorption deoxidizer can absorb oxygen, prevent oxidative degradation of the active ingredients of the oxygen-sensitive medicine, has weaker moisture absorption capacity, solves the problem of growth of related substances of the acetylcysteine capsule, does not influence the quality of the capsule, and effectively prolongs the shelf life of the capsule.
The foregoing is a further detailed description of the application in connection with specific embodiments, and it is not intended that the application be limited to such description. It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that several simple deductions or substitutions may be made without departing from the spirit of the application, and these should be considered to be within the scope of the application.
