Definitions
- the present invention relates to a measuring spoon for microtablets.
- Multi unit dose (MUD) forms are usually dosed by capsules.
- the active ingredient in MUD formulations is divided into many individual sub-dosage forms, such as pellets or microtablets.
- a formulation of the dosage form as a heap, ie as a filling in a container, and the dose-appropriate removal with, for example, a spoon or measuring spoon is particularly inaccurate with smaller volumes, such as those which correspond to the usual capsule contents, and can only be reproduced with large fluctuations.
- this is made more difficult by the fact that, due to the manufacturing-related irregularity of the grain sizes when the volume is withdrawn, the range of fluctuation is further increased and thus the requirements of the European Pharmacopoeia Dosage uniformity, as they are designed for tablets there, can not be maintained.
- Microtablets which have a diameter range of 1.0 to 3.0 mm, can be produced relatively easily with a uniform size and constant active ingredient content. A very precise individual division of the dose could in principle be done by counting the microtablets, but this cannot be expected of the patient, especially if he has to count larger amounts of microtablets.
- a device has now been found with which precise dosing can be achieved in a simple manner by removing an exact number of microtablets from a storage vessel.
- the invention relates to a measuring spoon for microtablets, in which the lower part (1) of the spoon consists of a flat polygon, which has an edge (2) on all sides with the exception of one side, and the polygon has a series of individual depressions (3 ) which are shaped so that a single microtablet fits into each individual well.
- the polygon is usually a quadrilateral in which the two sides that face each other have the same length (parallelogram).
- the small angle (4) of the parallelogram is between 45 and 90 °.
- a long side (5) of the parallelogram as well as the two smaller sides (6,7) are provided with an edge (2) which is somewhat, i.e. up to 5 mm, protrudes vertically beyond the polygon.
- Small hollow cylinders (3) are inserted into the polygon of the dosing spoon, the diameter and depth of which are dimensioned such that a micro-tablet fits comfortably into each opening.
- the diameter of the cylinders is between 1.5 and 4.0 mm. The same applies to the depth of the cylinders. In a special case, the diameter and depth should be 0.2 mm larger than the largest diagonal of the micro-tablet for which the measuring spoon is to be used.
- the hollow cylinders are normally arranged so that as many holes as possible fit on 1 cm 2 of the polygon. The total number of holes corresponds to the amount of microtablets to be taken. This number is usually 5-100, preferably 10-60.
- rimless side (8) of the polygon there is also a zone without openings (9), which is normally up to 1 cm wide. This zone makes it easier to fill the holes with micro tablets, especially from a container that only contains small amounts of microtablets.
- the dipper stick (10) is preferably attached in the extension of the side on the longer edge.
- Fig. 1 is a top view of the measuring spoon from above and Fig. 3 shows the spoon from below.
- Fig. 2 is a cross section through the bucket in the longitudinal direction and Fig. 4 in the transverse direction.
