Description

AMORPHOUS DULOXETINE HYDROCHLORIDE
FILELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a novel amorphous form of duloxetine hydrochloride, to a process for its preparation and to a pharmaceutical composition containing it. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Duloxetine of formula (1):
Figure imgf000002_0001
or (γS)-Λ/-Methyl-γ-(1-naphthalenyioxy)-2-thiophenepropanamine and its salts are Dual serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRI) and its therapeutic uses were disclosed in US 5,023,269. The process for preparation of duloxetine hydrochloride was described in US 5,362,886. The processes described in the prior art produce crystalline duloxetine hydrochloride. It is well known that pharmaceutical products in amorphous form usually have better dissolution characteristics than when they are in crystalline form. We discovered a sufficiently stable amorphous form of duloxetine hydrochloride. The novel amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride is found to have better dissolution rate than the known crystalline duloxetine hydrochloride. So, the novel form is suitable for pharmaceutical preparations. The object of the present invention is to provide a novel stable amorphous form of duloxetine hydrochloride, process for preparing it and a pharmaceutical composition containing it. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a novel amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. The amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride is characterized by having broad x-ray diffraction spectrum as in figure 1. In accordance with the present invention, a process is provided for preparation of amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. Amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride is prepared by dissolving duloxetine hydrochloride in an alcohol, a ketone solvent or an ester solvent and removing the solvent. The alcohol is selected from the group consisting of methanol, ethanol, isopropyl alcohol, tert-butyl alcohol and n-butyl alcohol. The ketone solvent is selected from the group consisting of acetone, diethyl ketone, methylethyl ketone, methylisobutyl ketone and methylpropyl ketone. The ester solvent is selected from ethylacetate and methylacetate. A mixture of two or more of these solvents may also be used. The preferable alcohols are ethanol and methanol. The solvent may be removed from the solution by vacuum drying, freeze- drying, lyophilization or spray drying. Duloxetine hydrochloride obtained by a known process may be used in the process. In accordance with the present invention, there is provided a pharmaceutical composition comprising amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier or diluent.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS Figure 1 is a x-ray powder diffraction spectrum of amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. x-Ray powder diffraction spectrum was measured on a Bruker axs D8 advance x-ray powder diffractometer having a copper-Kr radiation.
The invention will now be further described by the following non-limiting examples. Example 1 Duloxetine hydrochloride crystals (25 gm) is dissolved in ethanol (125 ml). The solution is subjected to vacuum drying at about 60°C for 10 hours to give-22.5 gm of amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. Example 2 Duloxetine hydrochloride crystals (25 gm) is dissolved in methanol (100 ml). The solution is subjected to vacuum drying at about 40°C for 9 hours to give 23 gm of amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. Example 3 Duloxetine hydrochloride crystals (20 gm) is dissolved in isopropyl alcohol (140 ml). The solution is subjected to vacuum drying at about 60°C for 8 hours to give 19 gm of amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. Example 4 Example 1 is repeated by subjecting the solution to spray drying instead of vacuum drying to give amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride. Example 5 Example 2 is repeated by subjecting the solution to spray drying instead of vacuum drying to give amorphous duloxetine hydrochloride.
