As pharmacokinetic point of view, the resorption rate is related with the half-life period of the substance in the organism deciding whether at the end of the dosage intervals. Thus, for acquiring a sufficient resorption rate and a sufficient extent of the resorption of the active agent over the whole region of the gastrointestinal tract with its different pH values are necessary.
Propiverine is nearly completely absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and it undergoes extensive first pass metabolism due to its weak acid.
After oral administration for immediate release of propiverine is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract with maximal plasma concentrations reached after 2.3 hours and the mean absolute bioavailability is 40.5%.
For a therapeutically effective blood level of propiverine, the exact observance of the intake intervals is necessary, which leads to problems especially in elderly patients and the main group with hypertonic functional states of the bladder. For these reasons, it is desirable to reduce the multiple administration per day with all its known effects to a single dose with the same or improved therapeutic effect.
Therefore, the controlled release dosage form of propiverine is developed with absorbing from the gastrointestinal tract with maximal plasma concentrations reached after 9 to 10 hours and the mean absolute bioavailability is 60.8 ± 17.3%.
Based on the prior arts are shown in the above, many studies have been conducted to provide a pharmaceutical composition in the controlled release by using various pH-dependent and/or pH-independent polymers.
In the present invention, pharmaceutical composition comprising propiverine and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable excipients is developed in sustained release oral solid dosage form which extends the release of propiverine into 24 hours with a design of comprising at least one pH independent release controlling polymer(s).

Detailed Description of the Invention
The present invention provides a pharmaceutical composition comprising propiverine hydrochloride and pharmaceutically acceptable excipients wherein at least two pH independent polymers is used to exhibit a sustained release profile of the drug.
Propiverine and its pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof is a weakly basic drug an has particularly pH dependent solubility.
The term "sustained release" herein refers to any composition or dosage form which comprises an active drug and which is formulated to provide a longer duration of pharmacological response after administration of the dosage form than is ordinarily experienced after administration of a corresponding immediate release composition comprising the same drug in the same amount. Sustained release compositions include, inter alia, those compositions described elsewhere as "extended release", "delayed release", "controlled release", "prolonged release", "programmed release", "modified release", "time release" and/or "rate controlled" compositions or dosage forms.
In the preferred embodiments of the invention, sustained release compositions include a core comprising at least two pH independent polymers with different viscosities to overcome the pH dependent solubility of propiverine and its pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.
The solubility of pH independent release controlling polymer is independent of pH and hence its performance does not depend on the pH of the environment it encounters.
In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the pH independent polymers are selected from the group comprising ethyl cellulose, cellulose acetate, vinyl acetate/vinyl chloride copolymers, acrylate/methacrylate copolymers, polyethylene oxide, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, hydroxyethyl cellulose, hydroxypropyl cellulose, karaya gum, acacia gum, tragacanth gum, locust bean gum, guar gum, methyl cellulose, beeswax, carnauba wax, cetyl alcohol, hydrogenated vegetable oils, and stearyl alcohol. Preferably, at least two pH independent polymers are different kinds of hydroxypropyl methylcellulose.
In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, at least one of the pH independent polymer is high viscosity hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose, and at least one of two pH independent polymers is low viscosity hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose to get desired dissolution profile in the sustained release dosage form. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) is used to form swellable- soluble matrices. It hydrophilic and non-ionic, hence the matrices including them exhibit pH independent drug release profiles even though drug solubility is pH dependent. Thus, it is used to provide the release of a drug in a controlled manner. Viscosity grades of HPMC is important to get desired dissolution profile. The pores of high- viscosity HPMC block up quickly and inhibit further liquid uptake. This in turn leads to the formation of a turbid gel, which resists dilution and erosion, subsequently resulting in slower drug diffusion and release rate possess long side-chains are less mobile because of interaction with the gel. This increases the time taken for such drugs to diffuse through the gel structure. One proposed advantage of using a high-viscosity polymer is that, because of the rapid hydration and formation of a gel, it is likely to prevent dose dumping.
Many types of HPMC are identified by codes. For instance, the first part is a letter (E, F or K) relates to the degree of substitution. The K grades have a methoxy substitution of 19-24% and a hydroxypropyl substitution of 7-12%. F have a methoxy substitution of 27-30% and a hydroxypropyl substitution of 4.0- 7.5%. E grades have a methoxy substitution of 28-30% and a hydroxypropyl substitution of 7-12%. This first letter is followed by an indication of the viscosity of their aqueous 2% w/w gels at 20°C.
In the preferred embodiment of the present invention, the low viscosity matrix forming polymer is selected from the group comprising a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose selected from HPMC K100LV, HPMC E50LV, HPMC E5, HPMC E15LV or a combination of two or more thereof; and the high viscosity matrix forming polymer includes a hydroxypropyl methylcellulose selected from HPMC K4M, HPMC K15M, HPMC K100M, HPMC E4M and combinations of two or more thereof.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, low viscosity polymer has a viscosity within the range of 80 to 120 cP in 2% aqueous solution.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, high viscosity matrix forming polymer has a viscosity within the range of 70.000 to 140.000 cP in 2% aqueous solution.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, low viscosity polymer is present within the range of 8% to 10% by weight of the composition. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, low viscosity polymer is present within the range of 2% to 4% by weight of the composition
