Abstract
Provided is a patch containing a drug, a metal salt, an adsorbent and a pressure-sensitive adhesive base, where the metal salt is a salt containing a substance capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug or a component thereof, a content of the metal salt is the same or less number of moles of the substance capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug or a component thereof when a drug salt is formed, and the adsorbent is an adsorbent that adsorbs a polar solvent contained in the patch.
Description
- The present invention relates to a patch.
- A wide variety of drug-containing patches are developed in the expectations of reducing adverse reaction due to the avoidance of gastrointestinal tissue absorption of the drug and first-time passage to the liver and the improvement of patient compliance.
- However, not all the drugs exhibit good tissue absorption in transdermal administration, transmembrane administration, transnail administration, or the like, and thus various studies have been conducted to enhance the tissue absorption of the drugs.
- The drugs are distributed in the form of acid addition salt in the market from viewpoints of the handleability and stability thereof. However, when a drug acid addition salt is directly applied to the transdermal administration, or the like, it is generally known that the tissue absorption tends to be decreased. On the other hand, it is also known that the free base (free form) of a drug is preferable in view of the tissue absorption.
- Accordingly, techniques wherein an acid addition salt of a drug used for a patch is neutralized (desalted) using a metal hydroxide such as sodium hydroxide, which is a strong base to completely desalt the acid addition salt have been studied (e.g.,
Patent Documents 1 and 2), but all of these techniques are those in which the formed metal salt is either removed by carrying out filtration beforehand or mixed with a pressure-sensitive adhesive base without further treatment. - However, the present inventors found that when an easier production process wherein the free form of a drug and a metal salt (sodium chloride, or the like) are formed by the neutralization reaction of an acid addition salt of the drug and the metal salt is mixed with a pressure-sensitive adhesive base without being removed by filtration is employed, the metal salt formed by the neutralization reaction sometimes precipitates in the form of crystal, which aggregates and grows over time adversely affecting the production efficiency, product stability and product properties of a patch.
- Thus, an object of the present invention is to provide a patch with suppressed over-time aggregation and growth of the metal salt formed when a drug salt is neutralized.
- The present inventors conducted extensive studies to accomplish the above object and found that a salt derived from a drug acid addition salt formed after a neutralization reaction has a possibility to aggregate and grow around a small amount of the residue of a polar solvent (water, methanol, ethanol, or the like) used when a patch is produced or the neutralization reaction is carried out, and further found that the aggregation and growth can be suppressed by containing an adsorbent in a pressure-sensitive adhesive layer.
- More specifically, the present invention is to provide a patch comprising a drug, a metal salt, an adsorbent and an pressure-sensitive adhesive base, the metal salt contains a substance capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug or a component thereof, the content of the metal salt is the same or less number of moles of the substance capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug or a component thereof when a drug salt is formed; and the adsorbent is an adsorbent that adsorbs a polar solvent comprised in the patch.
- With reference to an example of a drug being a basic drug, the metal salt contained in the patch of the present invention is now described. When expressing a basic drug as “A”, a substance capable of forming a drug acid addition salt by bonding to the drug “A” as “HX” and a drug acid addition salt as “A.HX”, the neutralization reaction mentioned above can be expressed as A.HX+MOH →A+MX+H2O and the salt formed as a result of the neutralization reaction is expressed as “MX”. The metal salt in the patch of the present invention is the “MX” in this example and contains the component “X” of the substance “HX” capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug “A”.

Further, considering that the sufficient potency as a patch is attained, the product properties and tissue absorption, the drug is added in a proportion of preferably 0.5 to 50% by mass, particularly preferably 1 to 30% by mass, on the basis of the total mass of the pressure-sensitive
adhesive layer 3. - The drug is preferably a basic drug and more preferably a basic drug generated from an acid addition salt. Examples of the acid addition salt form include hydrochloride, acetate, sulfate, maleate, oxalate, citrate, hydroiodide, hydrobromate, mesylate, tartrate, and succinate.
- The pressure-sensitive
adhesive layer 3 contains a metal salt containing a substance capable of forming a drug salt by bonding to the drug or a component thereof. Such a metal salt is preferably those formed during production steps. Since the drug is preferably a basic drug generated from an acid addition salt, it is desirable to use an acid addition salt of a basic drug as a starting material, cause a neutralization reaction of the drug by mixing the salt with a neutralizer, allow the free form of the drug having a higher tissue absorption to be present in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 and cause the metal salt produced as a result of the neutralization reaction of the drug to be also contained therein. - The type of the metal salt produced as a result of the neutralization reaction (desalting reaction) is determined by a drug salt and a neutralizer for neutralizing the drug salt. The metal salt produced when neutralizing an acid addition salt of a basic drug is preferably any of metal chloride, metal bromide, metal iodide or organic acid metal chloride, and particularly preferably at least one of sodium chloride, calcium chloride, aluminum chloride, stannous chloride, ferric chloride, magnesium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium citrate, sodium oxalate, sodium tartrate, sodium bromide and sodium succinate.
- The neutralizer used for the neutralization reaction is not limited, but when a basic drug produced from an acid addition salt is used, a strong base is suitable for completely desalting an acid addition salt of a basic drag, with a hydroxide of an alkali metal is particularly preferably used. Specific examples of the neutralizer include sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, and magnesium hydroxide, with sodium hydroxide being particularly preferable among these. The neutralizer is added to convert a basic drug as a whole or a part to the state of free base (free form). To obviate the decomposition of the drug caused by an excessive amount of a neutralizer at this step, the neutralizer is preferably added within a range from 0.5 to 4 equivalent amounts to the equivalent amount of the drug acid base. The addition may be carried out once during the production steps, or carried out several times in a divided manner.
- The
patch 1 produced via a neutralization reaction contains a metal salt formed as a result of the neutralization in the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. - The metal salt present in the pressure-
sensitive adhesive layer 3 is likely to aggregate and grow around a small amount of the residue of a polar solvent (water, methanol, ethanol, etc.) used during the production of the patch and the neutralization reaction, but the aggregation and growth of the metal salt can be suppressed by allowing the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3 to contain an adsorbent. Further, the crystal can be dispersed uniformly by containing an adsorbent. Owing to this, the production efficiency, product stability and product properties of thepatch 1 are enhanced. - Thus, the pressure-
sensitive adhesive layer 3 contains an adsorbent, and examples of the applicable adsorbent include the inorganic substances and organic substances described as having hygroscopic properties, dampproofing properties, adsorptive properties among the additives listed in “Japanese Pharmaceutical Excipients Directory 2000, published on Apr. 28, 2000, 1st edition” and aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymers and zinc oxide, which are not described in the above “Japanese Pharmaceutical Excipients Directory 2000” but have been known to have adsorptive properties. Among these, preferable examples include minerals such as talc, kaoline, and bentonite; silicone compounds such as fumed silica (Aerosil (registered trademark), etc.) and hydrous silica; metal compounds such as zinc oxide and dried aluminum hydroxide gel; weak acids such as lactic acid and acetic acid, sugars such as dextrin, and high molecular weight polymers such as polyvinylpyrrolidone, propylene glycol, aminoalkyl methacrylate copolymers, crospovidone, and carboxy vinyl polymers. These adsorbents may be used in combination of two or more as necessary. - The content of the adsorbent in the pressure-
sensitive adhesive layer 3 is preferably 0.5 to 50% by mass on the total mass basis of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3. A content of 0.5% by mass or lower tends not to achieve sufficient effects to control the aggregation and growth of the metal salt crystal or to disperse the crystal uniformly. Conversely, a content of 50% by mass or higher has a tendency of reducing the adhesion of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, likely making it difficult to apply the patch. - The
patch 1 of the present invention may contain as necessary, in addition to the above compositions, tackifier, plasticizer, absorption enhancer, antioxidant, filler, crosslinking agent, preservative and ultraviolet absorber. - Examples of the usable tackifier include rosin resins such as “Ester Gum (tradename, Arakawa Chemical Industries, Ltd.)”, “Hariester (tradename, Harima Chemicals, Inc.)”, “Pentalyn (tradename, Eastman Chemical Company)”, “Foral (tradename, Eastman Chemical Company)”, terpene resins such as “YS resin (tradename, Yasuhara Chemical Co., Ltd.)”, “Piccolyte (tradename, Loos and Dilworth)”, petroleum resins such as “Arkon (tradename, Arakawa Chemical Industries, Ltd.)”, “Regalrez (tradename, Eastman Chemical Company)”, “Piccolastic (tradename, Eastman Chemical Company)”, “Escorez (tradename, ExxonMobil Chemical Company)”, “Wingtack (tradename, Goodyear)”, “Quinton (tradename, Zeon Corporation)”, phenol resins, and xylene resins.
- These tackifiers may be used singly or in combination of two or more. The amount of the tackifier to be added is preferably 10 to 90% by mass, more preferably 15 to 70% by mass, particularly preferably 20 to 60% by mass, on the basis of the total mass of the pressure-
sensitive adhesive layer 3, when considering the sufficient adhesion of and the local irritation when removing thepatch 1. - Examples of the plasticizer include petroleum oils such as paraffin process oils, naphthene process oils, and aromatic process oils; squalane, squalene; plant oils such as olive oil, camellia oil, castor oil, tall oil, and peanut oil; dibasic esters such as dibutyl phthalate, and dioctyl phthalate; liquid rubbers such as polybutene and liquid isoprene rubber; and diethylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and dipropylene glycol. These plasticizers can be used singly or two Or more can be used in combination.
- In the embodiment of the present invention, the liquid paraffin and liquid polybutene are preferably used.
- The content of the above plasticizer in the pressure-
sensitive adhesive layer 3 is preferably 1 to 60% by mass, more preferably 2 to 50% by mass, particularly preferably 3 to 40% by mass, on the basis of the total mass of the pressure-sensitive adhesive layer 3, considering the maintenance of the sufficient adhesion of thepatch 1. - Examples of the preferably used absorption enhancer include fatty alcohols such as isostearyl alcohol, fatty acids such as capric acid, fatty acid derivatives such as propyleneglycol monolaurate and isopropyl myristate, propylene glycol, polyethylene glycol, and lauric acid diethanolamine. These absorption enhancers may be used singly, or in combination of two or more. The content of the absorption enhancer is preferably 1 to 30% by mass, more preferably 3 to 20% by mass, particularly preferably 5 to 15% by mass, on the basis of the total mass of the
patch 1, considering the sufficient permeability of the active ingredients to the tissue, the local irritation, and the like, as a patch. - Examples of the usable antioxidant include tocopherols and ester derivatives thereof, ascorbic acid, ascorbyl stearate, nordihydroguaiaretic acid, dibutylhydroxytoluene (hereinafter abbreviated as BHT), and butylated hydroxyanisole, with BHT being particularly preferably used.
- Examples of the filler include aluminum hydroxide, calcium carbonate, magnesium carbonate; silicates such as aluminum silicate and magnesium silicate; silicic acid, barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, calcium zincate, zinc oxide, titanium oxide, and the like.
- Examples of the crosslinking agent include thermosetting resins such as amino resin, phenol resin, epoxy resin, alkyd resin, and unsaturated polyester, isocyanate compounds, blocked isocyanate compounds, organic crosslinking agents as well as inorganic crosslinking agents such as metals and metal compounds.
- Examples of the preservative preferably usable include disodium edetate, tetrasodium edetate, ethyl parahydroxybenzoate, propyl parahydroxybenzoate, and butyl parahydroxybenzoate.
- Examples of the ultraviolet absorber include p-aminobenzoic acid derivatives, anthranilic acid derivatives, salicylic acid derivatives, coumarin derivatives, amino acid compounds, imidazoline derivatives, pyrimidine derivatives, and dioxane derivatives.

These are selected as necessary in accordance with the ingredients to be dissolved or dispersed, and may be used singly or in combination of two or more.
