  • an object of this invention is to provide an effervescent system which will avoid the aforesaid disadvantages and offer the possibility of administering to a patient pharmaceutical substances, inclusive of acid- sensitive substances which have hydrophobic properties or properties influencing the surface tension of water, in pleasant-to-drink effervescent solutions. It is a further object of this invention to create an effervescent tablet or an instant effervescent granular product with an acid binding capacity of less than 5 meq, in order to avoid undesired antacid effects. This is especially advantageous for all H2 blockers. Lastly, it is desired that the tablet or granular product is to dissolve rapidly in water at a temperature of about 15-20°C in less than about 2 minutes.
  • Neutral substances within the meaning of this invention include polymers soluble in water and/or alcohol, such as e.g. polyvinylpyrrolidone, carbohydrates, such as saccharose, pentaerythritol, glucose, and fructose (although the latter two, under the influence of the only slightly alkaline effervescent-grain surface due to the bicarbonate coating, are subject to a Maillard reaction tending to make them yellow and therefore they are not particulary preferred herein) , hydrocolloids, such as maltodextrin, dextrin and the like; especially preferred are higher alcohols, such as xylitol, mannitol and sorbitol.

It was the aim of the said EP-A1 to slow down the reaction between acid and carbonate in order not to produce an undesired high effervescent effect in the mouth.
  • a tablet having a core of acid, bicarbonate and calcium were coated with a neutral substance, for example with sorbitol in an aqueous, alcoholic or in a water/alcohol-solution, such a tablet would not provide reliable protection for acid- sensitive active substances contained in the core.

  • the structure of the effervescent system according to this invention not only prevents direct contact of an acid-sensitive drug with the acid crystals thereby providing an effervescent tablet or granular product with substantially more shelf-stability, but it also permits the preparation of substantially smaller tablets, i.e., those with smaller amounts of effervescent components which, when dissolved, result in a buffer system.
  • the present tablets according to the invention in contrast to buffer systems of antacid effervescent preparations, can remain at far less than 5 meq of acid binding capacity. Also, in terms of product preparation, a retarded reaction and better compressibility into tablets is obtained.
  • an effervescent tablet can be prepared which for the first time contains an acid-sensitive drug, such as cisapride, or an H2 blocker such as cimetidine, and which has an acid-binding capacity of less than 5 meq for a tablet (or granular product) weight of only 1.6 to 2.3 g.

  • At least a portion of the carbonate and/or bicarbonate particles intended for a full dose can be applied to this coating, so that effervescent grains are formed from acid crystals on which a first coating of neutral substance has formed, and thereon a second coating of carbonate and/or bicarbonate, which has partially reacted with the acid in some cases.
  • the invention can be particularly expediently used for products or processes as described, for example, in EP-B1- 76 340, US-A-4 867 942 and WO93/00886, and whose description and claims are herein regarded as having been disclosed.
  • the application of the neutral substance causes a depression of the melting point on the surface of the citric acid crystals.
  • the adhesive force for the next coating containing alkali or alkaline earth carbonates and/or bicarbonates increases, and at the same time this signifies a slower and therefore more uniform reaction of the citric acid crystal surface and better passivation, so that the acid-sensitive drugs are less attacked by the effervescent grains.
  • the melting point depression protracts the recrystallization time of the citric acid or of the citrates that have formed, which signifies better compressibility of the effervescent granules over a longer period of time.
  • the amount of neutral substance applied to the acid vehicle crystals depends on the amount of solvent with which the acid can be wet, since a maximum of 50 - 70 % by weight can be dissolved in an aqueous solution. It is therefore preferably added in an amount of 0.05 bis 1.0, in particular 0.07 bis 0.8, % by weight, based on the acid. Additions of less than 0.07 have only a weak effect and those of less than 0.05 have no effect which is relevant according to the invention: the shelf-stability of acid-sensitive active substances is reduced. Additions of over 0.8 generally begin to have an interfering effect, and at above 1.0 the reactivity of citric acid and of the effervecent system is consierably slowed down.
  • the amounts of neutral substance which can be applied to, for example, citric acid are determined by the amount of solution with which the citric acid can be wet, since the neutral substances are in fact applied in solution, and a 50 to max. 70% solution can be prepared.
  • the citric acid crystals cannot be wet with an infinitely large amount of water and hence solvent.
  • the neutral coating can also contain small amounts of a solid, edible organic acid, and in some cases an acid different from the one of which the vehicle crystals consist - as disclosed per se in another context - but here also in order to intensify the melting point depression and/or to control the effervescent reaction and rate of dissolution.

  • Each such effervescent grain is, taken by itself, actually a small effervescent "tablet", and effervesces by itself. Therefore, if desired, a short dissolving time, small quantity and low acid-binding capacity can be achieved.
  • a very thin monosodium citrate coating in accordance with this invention acts advantageously because 1 mol of monosodium citrate binds 1 mol of water of crystallization and thus contributes to the drying or to maintenance of dryness.
  • uncovered citric acid surfaces can be covered again or more completely with bicarbonate.
  • Alcohol may disrupt the bonding of water of crystallization, because during drying the residual moisture is removed along with the alcohol by evaporation.
  • Small amounts of an antifoaming agent can also be added to the alcohol in order to accelerate the dissolution of the final tablet.
  • the antifoaming agent is preferably added in an amount of 0.005 bis 0.5% by weight, based on the total amount including any fillers, flavors, etc., or 0.05 - 2.0% by weight, based on active substance. Additions of less than 0.005 have no effect relevant according to the invention; additions of more than 0.5 give rise to troublesome or unacceptable side effects.
  • the cisapride as a slightly soluble, hydrophobic active substance, requires a larger amount of antifoaming agent for suppressing the foam, but the required fillers and the effervescent base result in a substantially smaller amount of simethicone being used per tablet, so that the ratios are inverted.
  • the simethicone is required in smaller amounts, in order to suppress the smaller tendency to foaming in the local reaction on dissolution of the effervescent tablet, whereas in the case of cisapride - as already mentioned - the tendency to foam is substantially greater and the principle is therefore also slightly different.
  • simethicone occurs at the surface after dissolution of the effervescent tablet, by virtue of the fact that - especially in the case of insoluble active substances - particles of the active substance collect and remain hanging and thus result in unattractive dissolution behavior, this film then additionally having the tendency to form a ring on the glass wall.
  • a tenside for example, docusate sodium
  • docusate sodium Due to their wettable nature, such drug particles dissolve more quickly and no longer adhere to the foam bubbles. The proportion of such substances must be determined very precisely to achieve the desired dissolving characteristics.
  • the antifoaming agent can be applied to the effervescent system and/or to the drug, this is not preferred according to the invention. In the first case, it might cause undesirable slowing of the dissolution and reaction of the effervescent components unless very slight amounts of antifoaming agent sufficient for the achievement of the desired effect are used.
  • the moisture released in the preparation of the effervescent system by the neutralization reaction, and not entirely removed by heating and/or vacuum treatment, as well as moisture picked up from the air during storage, can best be bound by the addition of a moisture-binding agent, especially anhydrous sodium carbonate (which can absorb 10 mols of water per mol) or sodium sulfate.
  • a moisture-binding agent especially anhydrous sodium carbonate (which can absorb 10 mols of water per mol) or sodium sulfate.
  • the agent can be bound either by applying it to one or more of the coatings applied to the vehicle crystals, or by adding it to the total mixture. This improves shelf life because the reaction of the acid-sensitive active agent with the acid is further suppressed or completely prevented by the reduction of moisture.
  • excessive amounts of such moisture- binding agent, for example sodium carbonate are not desirable as it may retard the effervescent reaction.
  • Sodium carbonate as a drying agent therefore, should not be used for completely covering the effervescent grains, since it is preferable to operate with only small quantities effective to merely dry the residual moisture, or to retard the reaction during manufacture, and to avoid undesirably lengthening the dissolving time of the tablet. Therefore, the final addition of sodium carbonate should not be used for complete coverage (or a tablet coating) , due to both the quantity and the grain size (approx. 0.1 - 0.05 mm), and it is therefore not suitable for producing a continuous coating on the bicarbonate already present. However, it can be partially hooked onto the effervescent grains. It is also possible, however, not to add the sodium carbonate until after the drying operation.
  • the percentage amount of sodium carbonate per tablet depends on several factors, such as, for example, the amount of effervescent base used, the amount and type of the fillers used, the presence of other carbonates, such as, for example, calcium carbonate, etc.
  • the moisture-binding agent in particular sodium carbonate
  • the moisture-binding agent is preferably added in an amount of between 1 and 10, in particular 4 - 6, % by weight (based on the total amount, including any fillers, flavors, etc.).
  • Additions of less than 4 have only a weak effect, and with those of less than 1 , the drying effect and increase in stability is too small, they have no effect relevant according to the invention.
  • Additions of over 6 generally begin to have a troublesome effect because sodium carbonate dissolves more slowly and reacts more poorly; above 10% the dissolution time is already significantly lengthened, since sodium carbonate first absorbs water (up to 10 molecules of water of crystallization) on dissolution of the effervescent tablet, i.e. is calcined and only then reacted with the citric acid.
  • effervescent tablets can be produced, even with the difficult substances referred to, which at a tablet weight of, e.g., 1.6 g,will attain a dissolving time of less than 100 seconds. It is also to be noted that especially cimetidine, due to its hydrophobic character, further lengthens the dissolving time in comparison with other drugs, under otherwise equal conditions.
  • Granulation with sorbitol solution permits rapid dissolution without the incorporation of an extraneous acid that is otherwise necessary, for example, according to WO93/00886.
  • the steps taken according to the invention will enable the control of reactions which take place at the surface of individual crystals or granules, which thus constitutes a local mechanism, while also during dissolution the above-described desired advantages will be achieved throughout.
  • the system is also extraordinarily well suited for the processing of substances which are both acid-sensitive and sparingly soluble in water.
  • substances which are both acid-sensitive and sparingly soluble in water.
  • Such substances such as cisapride for example, exhibit very unpleasant behavior in suspension, since, as mentioned above, they tend to froth together with the effervescent system, adhere to a glass wall, form unpleasant rings and tend to agglomerate on the surface of the drink.
  • a vehicle which can consist of an Aerosil and/or a neutral substance, on which the drug is applied preferably with the surface of its grains partially dissolved, and/or with binding agents and/or tensides if desired, and dried, or is bound to the vehicle surface by means of binders.
  • the amount of the suspended substance is limited to at most 8, preferably at most 4.5, % by weight (based on the total mixture) , for example for cisapride, since larger amounts would result in increased sinking of the granule particles after dissolution of the tablet.
  • the amount of binder used is likewise limited to 1% by weight, since it otherwise leads to undesirable agglomerated granules of active substance, suspended substance and binder, which dissolve only with difficulty and then sink to the bottom, i.e. prevent the desired suspension.
