Definitions

  • compositions and methods for preparing and using the same which compositions are useful as rapid disintegrants for water-dispersible solid dosage forms of active agents. More particularly, this invention relates to compositions comprising super disintegrants and co-disintegrants useful as excipients for pharmaceutical, agricultural, food, industrial, household and like commercially useful active compounds in solid dosage form which desirably should disintegrate rapidly when placed in an aqueous environment. Compositions containing this novel disintegrant and an active agent, optionally with additives, is also encompassed by this invention.
  • solid dosage forms in which the ingredients, i.e. , active agents, excipients, adjuvants, etc. are processed into various forms such as tablets, briquettes, pellets, granules, and the like.
  • excipients are the disintegrants, and particularly super disintegrants, such as croscarmellose or the like further described below.
  • the solid dosage forms made with these super disintegrants are durable and stable yet readily disintegrate when added to an aqueous medium with concomitant release of the active components.
  • compositions combining a highly effective primary disintegrant (also referred to as super disintegrant) with a co-disintegrant compositions which are at least as effective as super disintegrants but which are much less costly, in which the co-disintegrant synergizes the disintegrant properties of the primary disintegrant.
  • the quantity super disintegrants necessary to rapidly disintegrate water-dispersible, solid dosage forms containing active agents may be substantially reduced, while at the same time maintaining or increasing the rate of disintegration, by substituting for a portion of the super disintegrant a co-disintegrant comprising a diatomaceous earth, a hydrophilic zeolite or a combination thereof to obtain a disintegration rate at least equal to, but preferably greater than that of the super disintegrant alone.
  • a disintegration rate increase can be achieved by simply adding minor amounts of co-disintegrant to a constant amount of super disintegrant. Substitution of the co-disintegrant for super disintegrant, is, however, preferred.
  • the weight percent of co-disintegrant which may be substituted for the more costly super disintegrants in this invention is not a fixed range, but rather may be adjusted to optimize either cost or disintegration rate, or both.
  • the weight percent of the combined super disintegrant and co-disintegrant which may be used in the total weight of any formulation is about 0.05 wt. % to about 10 wt% , preferably about 0.5-3.0 wt.
  • the co-disintegrant alone expressed as a weight percent of the total composition, may comprise from about 0.01 to 9.0 wt% . preferably about 0.1 to 2.7 wt%; and that the weight percent of the super disintegrant may comprise from about 0.045 to 8.0 wt% , preferably about 0.045 to 2.4 wt% .
  • the weight ratio of super disintegrant to co-disintegrant in the disintegrant combination may range from about 4: 1 to about 1 : 10, preferably 3: 1 to 1 :5. and most preferably about 2: 1 to 1 : 1. That is to say, expressing it somewhat differently, as much as about 25 to 90 wt. %, preferably about 25 to 85 wt% , and more preferably about 33 to 50 wt% , of the amount of super disintegrant ⁇ r se which is necessary for sufficient disintegration may be replaced in the combination of this invention by co-disintegrant by virtue of this discovery.
  • composition of the invention may readily be prepared by combining the super disintegrant with the co-disintegrant in any suitable manner for mixing paniculate materials, including dry blending, granulation, or the like. Such mixing techniques are well known in the art.
  • Solid formulations are then prepared by mixing the blended components with the desired active agent plus, if desired, any ancillary ingredients, and the resulting mixture processed to include the desired forms such as tablets, pellets, beads, granules, balls, bars, disks and briquettes. Wettable powders, which do not require disintegrants, are excepted.
  • formulations may be produced from the blend of disintegrants and active agent by any of various known processes, including compression, roller compaction, wet granulation, extrusion, spheronization, and/or pan granulation.
  • dry granulation When tableting is the method selected for producing the solids, conventional dry granulation, wet granulation, direct compression, spheronization or spray drying may be used to prepare the blend for tableting.
  • the selection of method depends primarily on the active agent, the ability of the mixture of the disintegrants and active agent to flow freely in the tableting machine or extruder, and the cohesiveness of the ingredients. If the active agent can be admixed with the disintegrants to produce a free flowing, dense powder, the mixture can be directly compressed.
  • dry granulation a dry powdery blend of the components is compressed to form slugs if a tablet press is used. Alternatively, the dry blend is roller compacted into sheets. The slugs or sheets are then sieved to form densified granules for final tableting.
  • the hardness of the resulting tablet, granule, etc. can be determined routinely by the formulator depending upon the amount and type of additives employed and the degree of pressure in, e.g., the tableting machine.
  • the degree of hardness may affect the disintegration rate, but as shown in Example 4 the increase in disintegration time is not greatly affected by increasing hardness.
  • tablets should be hard enough to resist chalking and/or breaking during normal handling but readily disintegrate in an aqueous medium.
  • the super disintegrants which may be employed in this invention include such compounds as croscarmellose sodium (Ac- Di-Sol , FMC Corp., Philadelphia, PA.), crospovidone, sodium starch glycolate, and the like, or combinations thereof. See Handbook of Pharmaceutical Excipients, 2 nd Ed. , American Pharmaceutical Association, pp. 141 et seq. (1994). Of these, croscarmellose sodium is preferred. Chemically, it will be seen that each of these compounds represents examples of a wholly or partially cross-linked compound such as a cross-linked cellulose or carboxymethyl cellulose , a cross-linked polymer, and a cross-linked starch, respectively. Also, other alkali metal salts may be substituted for the sodium salts generally employed in these materials.
  • the co-disintegrant employed as the second component in the disintegrant composition of this invention are water- insoluble, but highly hydrophilic materials which include not only well-known natural diatomaceous silica (i.e., kieselguhr or infusorial earth), but also such materials as synthetic hydrous calcium silicate prepared by the hydrothermal reaction of natural diatomaceous silica and lime, in which the lime content may range from 20 to 50 wt. %, usually about 26 wt% (e.g. , Micro-Cel , sold by Manville Corp., Denver Colo.) In addition to lime there may also be used magnesium compounds as well as other alkaline earth elements in the preparation of these synthetic materials. Of these silicas the synthetic calcium silicate is preferred.
  • the co-disintegrant may also be a hydrophilic zeolite, preferably one with large open pore structure for channeling of water into a compressed tablet.

Necessarily this amount may encompass e.g. materials ranging from pharmaceutical to agricultural materials, etc. , plus necessary additives and adjuvants, and thus a large variation in amounts must be determined by those skilled in each different art. It follows from this, that the amount of disintegrant of this invention must also vary significantly depending on the nature and amount of said active agent and other additives and adjuvants, if any.
  • the active agents include pesticides such as herbicides, insecticides, fungicides, plant growth regulators, fertilizers and biocides of all types.

  • this amount is not critical and may comprise as much as a major proportion by weight i.e. , in excess of 50 wt% of the total formulation thus, in practice, the choice of additive and amount are matters of routine consideration and trial for the skilled formulator. depending on the nature of the active agent.
  • lubricants facilitate the ejection of compacted forms from a die cavity. They may also reduce interparticle friction and prevent adhesion of materials to die and punch surfaces.
