Abstract
A medicated patch for improved transdermal permeation of diclofenac diethylammonium in a composition comprising an acrylic copolymer and a citric acid ester.
Description
MEDICATED PATCH FOR IMPROVED TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION OF DICLOFENAC DIETHYLAMMONIUM
The present invention relates to a medicated patch for improved transdermal permeation of diclofenac diethylammonium.
Numerous diclofenac salts are known, of which diclofenac diethylammonium has demonstrated a particular pharmacological interest; however it has low permeation through the skin.
The object of the present invention is to provide a medicated patch which facilitates transdermal permeation of diclofenac diethylammonium.
This object is attained by dispersing said diclofenac diethylammonium salt in a polymer matrix spread onto a flexible support applicable to the human skin.
In particular said polymer matrix consists of a composition comprising from 39% to 55% of an acrylic polymer, from 4% to 12% of diclofenac diethylammonium and from 42% to 55% of a citric acid ester, said percentages being calculated by weight on the total weight of said composition.
Still preferably, said citric acid ester is tributylcitrate, said polymer matrix consisting of a copolymer of ethylacrylate and methylmethacrylate with average molecular weight 800000, in aqueous dispersion.
The abovestated composition has proved very effective in promoting transdermal permeation of diclofenac diethylammonium.
The medicated patch of the present invention will be better understood from the non-limiting examples given below.
EXAMPLE 1
MEDICATED PATCH FOR THE TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION OF DICLOFENAC DIETHYLAMMONIUM DISPERSED IN A COMPOSITION CONTAINING TRIBUTYLCITRATE (Formulation 1 )
27.5 g of tributylcitrate, 3.5 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 69 g of an aqueous dispersion of ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer with average molecular weight 800000 are poured gradually in succession at ambient temperature into a mixer (agitating for two hours).
An aqueous dispersion of this type is known by the name of EudragitR NE 40. This EudragitR NE 40 is an aqueous polymer dispersion with a concentration of 40 wt%.
The resultant aqueous polymer system is left to stand, to enable the air to be completely removed.
The composition obtained in this manner is spread with a doctor blade (by a Matris spreading machine model LTE-S) on a silicone-coated protective sheet and dried for a time of 15 minutes at a temperature of 60QC and then coupled to a flexible support formed from a non-woven fabric or weft and warp fabric.
The distance between the doctor blade and the protective sheet is such as to obtain a medicated patch containing 1 mg/cm2 of diclofenac.
At the end of the process the medicated patch obtained is cut and stored in hermetic containers.
In vitro permeation method
The skin used in the transdermal permeation studies was obtained from the abdomen of a patient undergoing cosmetic surgery. The total skin harvested was sealed in plastic vacuum bags and cooled to -20QC within
24 hours of removal. Before preparation, the skin was restored to ambient temperature and the excess fat was carefully removed.
The skin section was cut into squares, then after immersing the skin in water at 60QC for one minute the human epidermis section was carefully separated with tweezers from the remaining tissues. Before experimental use, the sample was carefully inspected to check for the presence of defects; said operation was carried out before mounting the sample on Franz diffusion cells with the corneal layer facing upwards in contact with the patch sample. The top and bottom parts of the Franz cell were sealed with ParafilmR and fixed by means of a clip.
These vertical cells have a diffusion of about 5 ml by 0.636 cm2. The receiving volume of each cell is sized individually. The receiving compartment was filled with a fresh degassed 0.9% NaCI solution containing l OOpg/ml NaN3 as preservative.
Particular care was taken to prevent the presence of bubbles between the 0.9% NaCI solution and the epidermis in the receiving compartment. The Franz cells containing the buffer were maintained at 37QC with a circulating water bath during the entire experiment, such that the epidermis surface temperature is 32±1 QC. Only the receiving compartment was in contact with the water circulating at 37QC, each Franz cell being equipped with a magnetic stirrer. At a predetermined time (1 , 2, 6, 8, 24 hours) 0.2 ml of sample were withdrawn from the receiving compartment. The withdrawn samples were analyzed directly by HPLC to determine the concentration of the components which had permeated through the epidermis. The permeation data were calculated as the total drug quantity permeated
through the skin as a function of time. All values were determined as the mean of experiments carried out in triplicate.
The diclofenac concentration was determined by HPLC analysis (HP 1 100, Chemstation, Hewlett Packard). A 20 ml sample was injected at ambient temperature into a reverse phase column C18 (C18 Nova-Pak, 4.6 - 150 mm; Waters Spa, Milan, Italy). The eluent composition was acetonitrile/water/acetic acid (50/46/4 v/v). The throughput was 1 .5 ml/min. The wavelength was set at 254 nm. The drug concentration was determined by standard sodium diclofenac curves (0.3-20 pg/ml).
Results
The diclofenac quantity which had permeated after 24 hours was 14.1 ±1 .8 g/cm2, the stationary flow being 0.8±0.0 g/cm2 per hour.
EXAMPLE 2
MEDICATED PATCH FOR THE TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION OF DICLOFENAC DIETHYLAMMONIUM DISPERSED IN A COMPOSITION CONTAINING DIBUTYLSEBACATE (Formulation 2)
Differently to that described in Example 1 , 27.5 g of dibutylsebacate, 3.5 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 69 g of an aqueous dispersion of ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer with average molecular weight 800000 are poured gradually in succession at ambient temperature into a mixer (agitating for two hours).
The operations involved in the preparation and subsequent analysis are identical to those described in Example 1 .
Results
The diclofenac quantity which had permeated after 24 hours was 1 .0±0.6 g/cm2, the stationary flow being 0.1 ±0.1 g/cm2 per hour.
EXAMPLE 3
MEDICATED PATCH FOR THE TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION OF DICLOFENAC DIETHYLAMMONIUM DISPERSED IN A COMPOSITION CONTAINING TRIACETIN
(Formulation 3)
Differently to that described in Example 1 , 27.5 g of triacetin, 3.5 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 69 g of an aqueous dispersion of ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer with average molecular weight 800000 are poured gradually in succession at ambient temperature into a mixer (agitating for two hours).
The operations involved in the preparation and subsequent analysis are identical to those described in Example 1 .
Results
The diclofenac quantity which had permeated after 24 hours was 1 .9±0.3 Mg/cm2, the stationary flow being 0.1 ±0.0 g/cm2 per hour.
EXAMPLE 4
MEDICATED PATCH FOR THE TRANSDERMAL PERMEATION OF DICLOFENAC DIETHYLAMMONIUM DISPERSED IN A COMPOSITION CONTAINING TRIBUTYLCITRATE (Formulations 4, 5 and 6)
Differently to that described in Example 1 , 34 g of tributylcitrate, 3.7 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 62.3 g of an aqueous dispersion of ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer (Formulation 4), 24 g of tributylcitrate, 3.5 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 72.5 g of an aqueous dispersion of ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer (Formulation 5), 27.1 g of tributylcitrate, 4.9 g of diclofenac diethylammonium and 68 g of an aqueous dispersion of
ethylacrylate/methylmethacrylate copolymer (Formulation 6) are poured gradually in succession at ambient temperature into a mixer (agitating for two hours).
Said aqueous dispersion has an average molecular weight of 800000. The operations involved in the preparation and subsequent analysis are identical to those described in Example 1 .
The diclofenac salt is dissolved in tributylcitrate.
Results
The diclofenac quantity which had permeated after 24 hours in the case of Formulation 4 was 15.8±2.3 pg/cm2, in the case of Formulation 5 was 13.1 ±3.3 Mg/cm2, and in the case of Formulation 6 was 17.1 ±1 .7 pg/cm2 The stationary flow, determined by the slope of the linear portion of the graph, in the case of Formulation 4 was 0.9±0.1 g/cm2 per hour, in the case of Formulation 5 was 0.7±0.2 pg/cm2 per hour, and in the case of Formulation 6 was 1 .1 ±0.3 g/cm2 per hour.
Final comments
The results obtained from Examples 1 , 2 and 3 using epidermis originating from one and the same donor show that tributylcitrate (Formulation 1 ) is capable of improving permeation of diclofenac salt through the skin compared with triacetin (Formulation 3) and with dibutylsebacate (Formulation 2).
Statistically, in Example 4 the different tributylcitrate quantities do not significantly reduce (Formulation 5) or increase (Formulation 4) the permeated diclofenac quantity; the same result is achieved by increasing the drug concentration within the polymer system (Formulation 6).
