摘要:
The present invention relates to a combined pharmaceutical formulation, which is such designed that the release of each ingredient may be controlled to a predetermined release rate by applying the principle of the so-called chronotherapy, where drugs are administered in such a way that the activities of the drugs are expressed at intervals. The formulation of the present invention comprises statin-based lipid-lowering agent and dihydropyridine-based calcium channel blocker that affects cytochrome P450 enzyme as active ingredients, and is such constituted that the release rates of the aforementioned ingredients are different, thus preventing antagonism and side effects, while maintaining the synergistic effect, which leads to the convenience in medication.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a metformin extended release tablet, particularly to a metformin extended release tablet comprising metformin, which is effective in treating non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, as active ingredient, and a matrix in which hydrophilic polymers and hydrophobic materials are mixed at a specific proportion. The hydrophilic polymers enable controlling of the pore size of the gel layer formed by water swelling, thereby enabling primary control of drug release rate. And, the hydrophobic materials block the pores of the gel layer, thereby enabling secondary control of drug release rate. Therefore, the metformin extended release tablet of the present invention has better dissolution properties than conventional extended release tablets and, thus, enables extended drug release at constant rate even with less matrix. A constant blood level can be maintained with one administration a day and the tablet can be made smaller, which makes the administration easier and the production simpler.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a metformin tablet with sustained release and a method for preparing the same, more particularly to an improved metformin tablet with sustained release prepared by manufacturing a composition comprising metformin, which is an active ingredient for treatment of insulin-independent diabetes, and a matrix capable of controlling release rate of metformin into a slug at a given pressure condition, forming a tablet core by dry granulation and then forming a coated film on it, which is slowly released into the body at a constant rate for 24 hours, thereby maintaining a constant blood concentration for 24 hours when administered once a day while offering bioequivalence comparable to that of conventional products, and a method for preparing the same.
