Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a process for the preparation of fast dissolving dosage form, such as tablet, which disintegrates quickly in the mouth.
  • the process of this invention is particularly suitable for moisture sensitive, poorly compressible and bitter drugs having a taste mask coating.
  • Fast disintegrating tablets are known to be prepared by tablet molding, spray drying, vacuum drying and freeze drying techniques, to name a few.
  • Currently available fast disintegrating tablets have several limitations such as poor physical integrity; insufficient taste masking; requirement of careful packaging and handling; sensitivity to humidity and temperature; unpleasant mouth-feel; difficulty in high drug loading; requirement of special equipment like freeze dryer or spray dryer; use of expensive or time consuming processing; and need for special packaging material or equipment.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,466,464 describes a process, using an agar solution as a binding agent and a blister - packaging well as a mold to prepare an intra- buccal fast-disintegrating tablets.
  • the process involves the preparation of a suspension containing active, agar and sugars, filling the suspension into the well, solidifying at room temperature and drying at 30 Q C under a pressure of 700 to 760mm Hg.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,298,261 describes a vacuum drying process to prepare rapidly disintegrating tablets. Vacuum drying a frozen mixture containing a gum, carbohydrates and a solvent in a tablet shaped mold produced tablets with enhanced structural integrity compared with that of traditional molded tablets. However, there is always a risk of residual solvents in the tablets prepared by this method.
  • Spray drying technique described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,587,180; 5,595,761 , 5,635,210 and 5,807,576 is another technique used to prepare fast dissolving tablets.
  • These formulations incorporated hydrolyzed and non- hydrolyzed gelatin as support agents, mannitol as a bulking agent, sodium starch glycolate or croscarmellose sodium as a disintegrant, and an effervescent couple to enhance disintegration and dissolution. Tablets made from the spray dried powder disintegrate within 20 seconds when immersed in an aqueous medium.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,576,014 describes a fluidized-bed granulation technology for WOWTAB quick-dissolving, without water tablets.
  • U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,305,502; 4,371 ,516; 5,738,875 use lyophilization (freeze drying) process to make an amorphous, porous structure which dissolves rapidly.
  • the principle of this technology (Zydis, technology) consists of preparing an aqueous suspension of the active ingredient and the excipients, which is dispensed into blister packs and water is removed by a freeze drying process. The final product is obtained by sealing the dried product in special peel-off blister packs.
  • the effectiveness of a freeze-drying process depends on the physico-chemical parameters of active substances used.
  • 6,083,531 describes an improved technique for preparing a rapidly dispersing tablet by preparing a suspension or solution of the active ingredient by dispersing or dissolving it in a solvent together with all other components of the composition and dispensing into molds e.g. blisters and then drying either by simple storage at room temperature or at elevated temperatures or by microwave radiation either at normal pressure or at reduced pressure.
  • molds e.g. blisters
  • microwave radiation either at normal pressure or at reduced pressure.
  • U.S. Pat. No. 5,853,758 provides a method for the preparation of a tablet of increased strength which comprises the steps of (a) combining and compressing a meltable binder and the active agent into a tablet (b) melting said binder in the tablet and (c) solidifying the binder by cooling. Further, volatile substances are added to increase the porosity. Method provides better hardness and friability but increases the disintegration time.
  • the present invention addresses the drawbacks and problems associated with the currently available technologies. It avoids the use of expensive and non-conventional equipment like freeze dryer or spray dryers. It also avoids the time consuming conventional process like compression.
  • the present invention relates to a process of preparing fast dissolving dosage form for oral administration, comprising the steps of a. Blending a pharmaceutically active ingredient, a cementing agent and optionally, together with other pharmaceutical excipients;
  • the process of the present invention is simple as it requires less number of steps than required in the conventional tabletting methods and is suitable for broad range of active ingredients with varying physico-chemical properties. It is particularly suitable for moisture sensitive drugs because the process does not involve the use of any solvent medium. It is also suitable for the poorly compressible drugs, as the binding is provided by fusion with cementing agent rather than compression; and the bitter drugs having a taste mask coat because the process does not involve compression leaving the coating intact.
  • the final dosage form is at least as free of residual solvents as the starting active ingredient. Furthermore, as the dosage form is made in-situ in the mold/final pack, the low hardness and high friability problems normally associated with the fast dissolving dosage forms do not arise.
  • the dosage form prepared by the present invention does not require any special packing like "peel on” etc. It has sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the usual press through pack (blister packaging).
  • the present invention provides a process for preparing a solid pharmaceutical dosage form adapted for direct usual administration into the mouth, which is particularly useful for improving compliance in geriatric and pediatric patients who have difficulty in swallowing.
  • the cementing agent of the present invention provides cohesive properties to the powdered material on heating and thereby fuses the powder blend when allowed to cool to make the tablets in-situ. Further, it ensures that the tablet remains intact.
  • the cementing agent of the present invention can be selected from the excipients well known in the art. Preferably, it is selected from the pharmaceutical binders which melt on heating.
  • the preferred cementing agent of the present invention melts at a temperature ranging from about 20 S C to about 100 Q C, preferably from about 40 Q C to about 60 9 C.
  • the cementing agent of the present invention may include fats such as lanolin, lanolin alcohol, hydrous lanolin; natural waxes such as carnuba wax; natural or synthetic polymers such as polyethylene glycols (PEGs); maltodextrins; and sugars such as dextrose and xylitol.
  • fats such as lanolin, lanolin alcohol, hydrous lanolin
  • natural waxes such as carnuba wax
  • natural or synthetic polymers such as polyethylene glycols (PEGs); maltodextrins
  • sugars such as dextrose and xylitol.
  • the cementing agent is selected in a way such that it melts at a temperature lower than the decomposition temperature of the pharmaceutically active agent and excipients present.
  • the preferable cementing agents of this invention are PEGs, having molecular weights ranging from 200 to 20,000; preferably from 1000 to 8000. Solid PEGs are preferred. Mixture of PEGs of different molecular weights or a mixture of liquid and solid grade PEGs are also contemplated. A structural body having desired hardness and disintegration / dissolution rate can be obtained regardless of their mixing ratio. However, such a structure of interest can not be obtained with usual pharmaceutical binders such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, xanthan gum, guar gum and the like, if used alone. However, they can be used together with PEGs to increase the cohesiveness.
  • the polyethylene glycol forms the desired shape because it melts on heating and therefore fuse all the components of the dosage form when allowed to cool acquire the shape of the mold/pack.
  • Different molecular weight PEGs can be combined to give good dispersibility and solubility.
  • the concentration and molecular weight may vary depending upon the active ingredient and the desired hardness, the PEGs may be used in the inventive process in a concentration of upto 90 w/w%, preferably 20 w/w% or more, based on the total weight of the dosage form.
  • the cementing agent may be combined with the other excipients and the pharmaceutically active agent in any sequence.
  • the excipients of the present invention may be selected from the diluent, binder, disintegrants, flow promoters/antiadherents, flavors and sweetening agents.
  • the diluent of the present invention may be selected from water soluble diluents well known in the art such as mannitol, lactose, sucrose, glucose, fructose, sorbitol, xylitol, calcium sulfate, calcium carbonate, microcrystalline cellulose and maltodextrin.
  • Preferred diluents are mannitol and sorbitol as they form the low density matrix which disintegrates rapidly within the mouth.
  • the diluent is usually present in an amount of upto 90 weight percent, preferably upto 70 weight percent.
  • Binders may include starch; gelatin; sugars such as molasses, lactose, glucose, dextrose and sucrose; natural and synthetic gums such as acacia, sodium alginate, carboxymethyl cellulose, methylcellulose, polyvinyl pyrrolidone and veegum.
