"SOLID PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITION"

Abstract Solid pharmaceutical composition comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient pradofloxacin, a pradofloxacin salt or a hydrate of pradofloxacin or of its salt 4 to 20 % by weight of a flavouring which is a mixture of proteins, fats and carbohydrates and 1.5 to 15 % by weight of colloidal silicon dioxide based on the total weight of the finished formulation wherein the ratio by weight of colloidal silicon dioxide to flavouring is 1:4 to 1:1.
Full Text The present invention relates to solid pharmaceutical composition.
The invention relates to flavouring-containing pharmaceutical Composition with improved pharmaceutical properties, and to process for the production thereof.
The use of flavourings in pharmaceutical formulations is becoming increasingly important in the veterinary medical sector. The flavourings are intended to facilitate administration of solid drug forms to animals, especially dogs or cats. Flavourings available on the market, such as, for example, Trigarol Bayopal P® (Haarmann und Reimer GmbH, Holzminden, D) or Artificial Beef Flavor (Pharma Chemie, Syracuse, Nebraska, USA) have an adverse effect on the pharmaceutical properties of tablets. Thus, for example, the tablet hardness (determination of tablet hardness described for example in Bauer, Kurt H.; Fromming, Karl-Heinz; Fiihrer, Claus: Lehrbuch der Pharmazeutischen Technologie, 6th revised and corrected edition 1999) is reduced or the stability of the tablets is adversely affected by a deterioration in release or tablet hardness. These changes result in disadvantages for the quality of the pharmaceutical products.
Botzolakis, Harris and Nesbitt describe in Pharm. Res. (5,. No. 10, Suppl. S253, 1988) and in EP-A 0345787 or US 04910023 formulations with unpleasantly tasting active ingredients and processes for their production. In this case, unpleasantly tasting, hygroscopic active ingredients are suspended in water and dried in combination with colloidal silicon dioxide. This results in pleasantly tasting, less hygroscopic tablets.
The requirements to be met by a solid pharmaceutical formulation suitable for administration to animals are diverse:
- good acceptance by the animals, in the best case voluntary intake
- good storage stability, especially low tendency to absorb water
- good mechanical properties, especially tablet hardness
- good disintegration and release properties.
The increased acceptance can be achieved by adding flavourings. The problem existing in this, connection to date is that these flavourings cause a deterioration in the pharmaceutical properties of the corresponding solid formulations.
It has now been found, surprisingly, that the disadvantageous effects of flavouring can be reduced or completely compensated by adding comparatively large amounts of colloidal silicon dioxide, and the resulting solid pharmaceutical formulations display good or very good properties in all the abovementioned criteria. It is noteworthy in this connection that the colloidal silicon dioxide
scarcely influences the effect of the flavourings although it is proposed in the state of the art for taste masking.
The invention therefore relates to solid pharmaceutical formulations comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient, a flavouring and at least 1.5% by weight of colloidal silicon dioxide based on the total weight of the finished formulation.
The pharmaceutical formulations of the invention normally comprise the active pharmaceutical ingredient in an amount of 0.001 - 90% by weight.

(Figure Removed)
Pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates etc. can likewise be employed.
The flavourings employed according to the invention constitute mixtures of proteins, fats and carbohydrates which are specifically processed. Particular mention may be made of Trigarol Bayopal P®, of Haarmann & Reimer, and Artificial Beef Flavor® of Pharma Chemie (Syracuse, Nebraska, USA). The flavourings are employed in the pharmaceutical formulations of the. invention in an amount of 1 - 40% by weight, based on the total weight of the finished formulation, preferably 2.5 - 30% by weight, in particular 4 - 20% by weight.
Colloidal silicon dioxide is described for example in the European Pharmacopoeia (Ph.Eur., SILICA, COLLOIDAL ANHYDROUS) or US Pharmacopeia (USP, Colloidal Silicon dioxide). Examples of commercial products are Aerosil (Degussa), Dissolvurol or Entero-Teknosal.

The solid pharmaceutical formulations of the invention comprise at least 1.5% by weight of colloidal silicon dioxide based on the total weight of the finished formulation, and they preferably contain at least 2.5% by weight, particularly preferably at least 4% by weight, of colloidal silicon dioxide based on the total weight of the finished formulation. The solid pharmaceutical formulations of the invention normally comprise not more than 15% by weight, preferably not more than 10% by weight, of colloidal silicon dioxide. Within the limits indicated above, it has proved to be particularly advantageous to process the colloidal silicon dioxide in the colloidal silicon dioxide to flavouring ratio by weight of from 1:4 to 1:1.
A process for producing the solid pharmaceutical formulations of the invention has also been found, in which the flavouring is granulated with the colloidal silicon dioxide and one or more active ingredients and pharmaceutically usual excipients. Suitable variants for the production process of the invention are as follows:
addition of the flavouring and of the colloidal silicon dioxide to the admixture (i.e. to granules consisting of the other ingredients), mixing of the solid components, where appropriate after screening, for example through a sieve with a mesh width of 0.5 - 2 mm, in a suitable container for 2-30 minutes
aqueous granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide using binder solutions consisting of water or water with, for example, starches (maize starch, rice starch, wheat starch, potato starch), modified starches (pregelatinized starch, hydroxyethyl starch), gelatin, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives (methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose) or polyvinylpyrrolidone, addition of these granules to the admixture (i.e. to granules consisting of the other ingredients) or to the further granulation
alcoholic (e.g. ethanolic) granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide, addition of these granules to the admixture or to the further granulation
granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide using a further binder, addition of these granules to the admixture or to the further granulation
addition of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide to the granulation of the active ingredient, possibly with the addition of further excipients such as, for example, fillers, disintegrants or binders.
The granulation may take place by means of a high-speed mixer as wet granulation with subsequent drying for example in a fluidized bed or tray dryer with inlet air temperatures of
-40 - 120°C, or as granulation for example in a fluidized bed granulator.
The pharmaceutical formulations of the invention are suitable for use in veterinary medicine, e.g. in livestock management and in livestock breeding. They can be administered to agricultural and breeding livestock, zoo, laboratory and experimental animals and pets.
i The agricultural and breeding livestock include mammals such as, for example, cattle, horses, sheep, pigs, goats, camels, water buffalos, donkeys, rabbits, fallow deer, reindeer, fur-bearing animals such as, for example, mink, chinchilla, racoon, birds such as, for example, chickens, geese, turkeys, ducks, pigeons, and bird species for keeping at home and in zoos. Productive and ornamental fish are also included.
The laboratory and experimental animals include mice, rats, guinea pigs, golden hamsters, dogs and cats.
Pets include dogs and cats.
The solid pharmaceutical formulations of the invention are preferably tablets. However, other solid preparations are also suitable, such as powders, premixes or concentrates, granules, pellets, boli, capsules, aerosols and inhalations.
The solid pharmaceutical formulations of the invention may comprise further pharmaceutically acceptable additives and excipients such as, for example, carriers, and the excipients detailed hereinafter.
Carriers which may be mentioned are all physiologically tolerated inert solids. Inorganic and organic substances are used as such. Examples of inorganic substances are sodium chloride, carbonates such as calcium carbonate, bicarbonates, aluminium oxides, silicas, aluminas, phosphates.
Examples of organic substances are sugars, lactose, mannitol, cellulose, human and animal foods such as milk powder, animal meals, ground and crushed grains, starches.
Excipients are antioxidants such as, for example, ascorbic acid, tocopherol, colours, which are approved for use in animals and can be employed in solution or suspension.
Further suitable excipients are lubricants and glidants such as, for example, magnesium stearate, stearic acid, talc, bentonites, disintegration-promoting substances such as starch and starch derivatives, croscarmellose sodium or crosslmked polyvinylpyrrolidone, binders such as, for example, starches (maize starch, rice starch, wheat starch, potato starch), modified starches

(pregelatinized starch, hydroxyethyl starch), gelatin, tragacanth, cellulose derivatives (methylcellulose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, hydroxypropylcellulose, sodium carboxymethylcellulose) or polyvinylpyrrolidone, and dry binders such as microcrystalline cellulose.

Figure 7 shows the dependence of the disintegration time [min] on the resistance to crushing [N] for Examples 20 and 27 to 30; the upper limit for an acceptable disintegration time is indicated. The time should be far below the upper limit of 15 minutes required by the European Pharmacopoeia in order to guarantee that all the tablets always comply with the required limits. For this reason, a disintegration time of less than 10 minutes is judged to be acceptable.
Figure 8 shows the kinetics of release from tablets of Examples 28 and 30 after storage under moist conditions for 8 weeks. The percentage of active ingredient released is plotted against the time.
Figure 9 shows the dependence of the resistances to crushing [N] on the load applied [kN] for tablets with the composition of Example 28 produced in various ways.

Formulations investigated: Tablet compositions [mg/tablet]
(Table Removed)

Addition of the flavouring produces the tablet hardness as the content of the flavouring increases, as shown in Figure 1.
The tablet hardness can be improved by adding large amounts of colloidal silicon dioxide (e.g. Aerosil 200®) and by adding further excipients (Figure 2).

Stated amounts of ingredients in mg/tablet Tablet format: oblong 14 x 6 r 5 [mm]

Addition of Bayopal reduces the tablet hardness (indicated as hardness yield = flexural
strengtn/load ratio). Compared with the flavouring-free formulation, the flexural strength of the oblong tablets decreases. The tablet hardness can be increased markedly by adding colloidal silicon dioxide, which has advantages both in manufacture (transport, packaging) and in administration of the tablets.
Additional advantages emerge for the formulations with colloidal silicon dioxide on storage under moist conditions. After storage for one week at a humidity of >80%, the flexural strength of all the tablets with flavounngs is reduced. This decrease can be reduced, as shown by Figure 3 hereinafter, to an extent acceptable for practice on use of large amounts of colloidal silicon dioxide.

The principle, which has already been described several times, of improving the tablet hardness also applies to pradofloxacin formulations based on microcrystalline cellulose. As the above table shows, addition of flavourings has particularly disadvantageous effects on the tablet hardness of these tablets, but this can be avoided by adding colloidal silicon dioxide.
Pradofloxacin tablets with lactose and microcrystalline cellulose:
The following mixture can be compressed to tablets of various sizes:

Tablets with the following sizes and dosages are possible, for example:

Small tablets are particularly sensitive to moisture. On storage of the tablets from Example 17 in the open without protective packaging they retain a hardness which is sufficient for their size, as shown below and confirmed and supplemented by the findings from the preceding pradofloxacin tablet examples.

Example 20 is a formulation without flavouring for comparison. On storage of the flavouring-containing formulations under moist conditions, they take up water, as shown in Figure 4 hereinafter for the exemplary formulations. This can be reduced by adding colloidal silicon dioxide in large amounts.
During storage, the tablets additionally lose hardness to a marked extent, which may lead to problems in the market (customer complaints). This problem can also be reduced by the inventive measure (see Figure 5).
The formulation corresponding to Example 23 can be compressed to tablets of a wide variety of sizes, as shown below by way of example:

Stated amounts of ingredients in mg/tablet; tablet format in mm
All these formulations display the advantages described above on storage under moist conditions.
Table 9
Bayopal-containing formulations

(Table Removed)
Stated amounts of ingredients in mg/tablet
The formulations lose hardness through the addition of Bayopal. This can, as already described also for other active ingredients and flavourings, be avoided by adding colloidal silicon dioxide (see Figure 6).
Besides the adverse effect on the tablet hardness, the flavouring also causes a deterioration in the disintegration and release properties. These adverse effects can also be reduced by the described inventive measure.

Disintegration of the tablets with colloidal silicon dioxide is, despite the improved tablet hardness, faster than for tablets with flavouring without colloidal silicon dioxide (Figure 7).
After storage under moist conditions for 8 weeks, tablets produced as tablet with 50 mg of active ingredient in analogy to the composition of Examples 28 and 30 show improved release if a large amount of colloidal silicon dioxide has been incorporated (Figure 8).
TV. Acceptance tests on dogs
The formulations corresponding to Examples 23 and 24 were tested on 40 dogs. In contrast to the taste masking described in EP 00345787 or US 04910023, the tested formulations were voluntarily consumed by 92.5% of the investigated dogs, proving that the added flavouring has surprisingly not lost its functionality.
V. Influence of the production process
Various production processes can be chosen for all the formulations described:
addition of the flavouring and the colloidal silicon dioxide to the admixture
aqueous granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide, addition of these granules to the admixture or to the further granulation
alcoholic (e.g. ethanolic) granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide, addition of these granules to the admixture or to the further granulation
granulation of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide using a further binder, addition of these granules to the admixture or to the further granulation
addition of the flavouring with the colloidal silicon dioxide to the granulation of the active ingredient, possibly with addition of further excipients such as, for example, fillers, disintegrants or binders.
These production processes result in tablets having identical properties. This is shown in Figure 9. for the hardness of tablets corresponding to the composition from Example 28, which were produced by different granulation processes.
Choosing different production processes for tablets according to Example 30 likewise results in tablets having virtually identical load/hardness profiles (Figure 10).

rhese data prove that the principle of incorporating large amounts of colloidal silicon dioxide in flavouring-containing formulations results in an improvement in the pharmaceutical properties of tablets, irrespective of the chosen granulation or tabletting process.
