Technical field
The present invention relates to field of pharmaceutical preparations, be specifically related to Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Azithromycin (Azithronycin) is a kind of Macrolide broad ectrum antibiotic that the erythromycin structure obtains after modified, mainly by suppressing the synthetic antibacterial action that reaches of ribosome 50s protein subunit matter in the bacterial cell.Be widely used at present the infection of gastrointestinal tract, genito-urinary system, respiratory tract and others, curative effect is obvious, is not prone to drug resistance.Absorb rapidly behind the azithromycin oral, can be distributed in the many organs and tissues of whole body rapidly, make tissue concentration be higher than 10~100 times of blood concentrations, and sustainable several days.Azithromycin can also be absorbed rapidly by phagocyte simultaneously, is carried into infection site, makes infection site concentration higher, has unique pharmacokinetic characteristics and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity.This medicine has also that effect is strong in addition, long half time, antimicrobial spectrum be than advantages such as erythromycin are wide, except the antimicrobial spectrum of erythromycin, can also suppress the escherichia coli of multiple aerobic and anaerobism gram-positive cocci, especially hemophilus influenza and Enterobacter.Therefore, azithromycin is at present domestic and international clinical quite valued broad spectrum antibiotic.
The existing peroral dosage form of azithromycin has granule, dispersible tablet, capsule, powder, dry suspension and syrup.But macrolide antibiotics and capsule shells produce the crosslinked action with chemical reaction, make the amino generation cross-linking reaction in the gelatin of azithromycin and capsule shells kind, change the dissolubility of gelatine capsule shell, make the azithromycin capsule agent not meet quality standard at external dissolubility.Azithromycin belongs to macrolide antibiotics in addition, and this class medicine mouthfeel is extremely bitter, and ubiquity the side effect of GI irritation, untoward reaction the most common for feel sick, untoward reaction such as diarrhoea, stomachache, dizziness.Recent research also shows, azithromycin is degraded 68% in 30 minutes in the 0.1mol/L hydrochloric acid solution, and this shows that azithromycin is unstable in gastric juice, and degradation speed is fast, medicine under one's belt major part be damaged, obviously influence clinical efficacy.According to another bibliographical information, behind the oral azithromycin, be degraded to the amount of taking off the cladinose azithromycin and be about about 15% of dosage, and behind the azithromycin of intravenous injection Isodose, take off the cladinose azithromycin the quantity not sufficient dosage 0.5%, further proved the destruction of gastric acid to azithromycin, cause the bioavailability of azithromycin common oral preparation lower, bibliographical information only is between 37~46%, thereby has influenced the clinical efficacy of azithromycin.
Though reported some enteric coated preparation in the prior art about azithromycin, there are problems such as intravital bioavailability is lower, onset slow, the pharmaceutical adjunct consumption is big, and taking dose is bigger usually in disclosed enteric coated preparation in that but discovery is used at present and the prior art.At present still need a kind of new enteric coated preparation that azithromycin is discharged rapidly at enteral, improve the infiltration rate of medicine, reduce dosage, the shortening medicine improves bioavailability to the onset time of patient part.
Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is at the problems referred to above, provide a kind of and can improve patient's medication compliance, reduce medicine to gastric stimulation, avoid stomach acids destroy, shelter the bitterness of azithromycin, the Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere that make that medicine dissolves rapidly at intestinal, release, absorption, bioavailability is significantly improved, and enteric-coated microsphere that can suitability for industrialized production.
The invention discloses a kind of Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere, it is made up of azithromycin, macromolecule enteric material, antiplastering aid and plasticizer.More than forming preferred percentage by weight is azithromycin 8~32%, macromolecule enteric material 28~60%, antiplastering aid 15~34% and plasticizer 5~25%; Preferred percentage by weight is an azithromycin 10~24%, macromolecule enteric material 40~48%, antiplastering aid 18~32% and plasticizer 10~22%.
Macromolecule enteric material of the present invention is preferably resinae or cellulose family macromolecule material.In wherein said resinae macromolecular material preferable methyl acrylic acid-methylmethacrylate copolymer (the strange L100 of You Te), the methacrylic acid-methylmethacrylate copolymer (the strange S100 of You Te) one or both and above mixture.Described cellulose family macromolecule material is selected from one or both and the above mixture in Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose Phathalate (HPMCP) or cellulose acetate-phthalate (CAP), the carboxylic first and second basic celluloses (CMEC), the cellulose acetate benzenetricarboxylic acid ester (CAT).More preferably methacrylic acid-methylmethacrylate copolymer (the strange L100 of You Te), methacrylic acid-methylmethacrylate copolymer (the strange S100 of You Te) or its mixture, preferred equal proportion mixture.
The mixture of one or both materials in the preferred micropowder silica gel of antiplastering aid of the present invention, magnesium stearate or the Pulvis Talci, more preferably micropowder silica gel.Antiplastering aid effect in the present invention is the generation that reduces wall sticking phenomenon in spray-drying process, improves the flowability of Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere, and improves its yield.
Plasticizer is preferably from Oleum Ricini, glycerol, Polyethylene Glycol or diethyl phthalate, more preferably Oleum Ricini.The adding plasticizer can increase the plasticity of Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere, improves its pliability, avoids the broken phenomenon of Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere to take place, and improves its yield.
The preparation method of Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere of the present invention comprises: the macromolecule enteric material is dissolved in acetone, ethanol or the methanol equal solvent, and the concentration of ethanol, methanol is preferred 80~95%, preferred 95% ethanol water.Get azithromycin and be dissolved in the macromolecule enteric material solution, add plasticizer and stir; Add an amount of antiplastering aid again, under stirring condition, carry out spray drying and promptly get enteric-coated microsphere.
The concentration of macromolecule enteric material is controlled at 1.5~2.5% during preparation, and preferred 2%.Too rare as concentration, then the enteric material balling-up is very difficult, is difficult to the medicine azithromycin is wrapped up into, and is too big as concentration, then more serious the and easy plug nozzle of wall sticking phenomenon when spray drying.
The amount of antiplastering aid and plasticizer controls that effect is better within the scope of the invention, and amount has been lacked and do not reached anti-stick and plastifying purpose, too many content of dispersion that can the reduction Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere.
Preparation method of the present invention is to adopt the spray drying method for preparation Azithromycin enteric casing microsphere.
