Definitions
- Combination laxative compositions comprising a colonic stimulant and a bulking laxative.
- the invention relates to laxative formulations, and to methods of prevention and treatment ofconstipation.
- Constipation is a common clinical complaint. The prevalence is estimated to be up to 28% of the population, being up to 56 million adults in the United States and 5 million people in Australia. In the United States about 2.5 million physician consultations per year are due to constipation, and annual expenditure on purchase of medications alone is about US$ 1 billion.
- Constipation may be defined in a number of ways. The most common definition is that of Drossman who described constipation as two or fewer bowel actions per week or straining at stool more than 25% of the time. More recently the Rome II and Rome III criteria have become the accepted means to describe the symptoms of fijnctional constipation, consisting of infrequent bowel movements, straining at stool, hard stools, sensation of incomplete evacuation, sensation of anorectal obstruction, or manual evacuation of stool from the rectum.
- Constipation caused by mechanical obstruction is treated by surgery, but this is a relatively uncommon cause.
- Functional constipation is far more common, of which there are three types.
- the first, slow-transit constipation (STC) is characterized by prolongation of transit time through the colon.
- the second, obstructed defecation is an inability to initiate defecation following the urge to do so associated with a feeling of incomplete evacuation of the rectum.
- the third, constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome is characterized by constipation with associated abdominal pain and bloating, occurring in the presence of normal colonic transit time.
- Non-propagated and propagated colonic contractions are found in normal colonic transit. High amplitude propagated contractions are responsible for mass migration of colonic contents and have been shown to be reduced in patients with constipation. In slow-transit constipation there is ineffective colonic propulsion.
- Impaired propagated colonic contractile response to the laxative bisacodyl is found in patients with STC. This inactivity of the colon may be due to a disorder of the myenteric plexus of the colon. Colonic inertia reflects a severe disorder of colonic motor function that sometimes requires treatment with large doses of laxatives.
- Empirical treatment with fibre supplementation using at least 25gram daily is indicated for all patients presenting with functional constipation, and adequate fluid intake is important.
- Laxatives will be required if constipation does not improve with fibre. However, there are a number of problems associated with laxative use.
- Metamucil osmotic agents (lactulose, Epsom salts); and stimulants (bisacodyl, senna).
- osmotic laxatives such as Epsom salts and lactulose may exacerbate bloating. With lactulose, this occurs partly since it is metabolised into methane and hydrogen gas in the colon.
- Combination laxatives in the market are generally supermarket products and usually comprise senna products together with other agents, many of which are poor laxatives.
- Prescription or OTC pharmaceutical laxatives tend to be single agent laxatives.
- the invention provides a combination dosage form including a colonic stimulant and a bulking laxative.
- the dosage form includes a non- cramping amount of a colonic stimulant and also preferably a non-bloating amount of a bulking laxative.
- the colonic stimulant is bisacodyl. Any therapeutically effective amount of bisacodyl may be used.
- the dose of bisacodyl may be 0.05mg or above although preferably the dose of bisacodyl is between 0.5mg and 5mg.
- the bulking agent is one or more of natural bran fibre, sterculia husks, ispaghula husks or psyllium. More preferably the bulking agent is psyllium, preferably the dose of psyllium husk is between 0.25g and 5g.
- the dosage form is preferably in the form of a tablet or more preferably in the form of a capsule.
- One preferred combination dosage form includes a capsule containing 0.5mg bisacodyl and 500mg psyllium husk.
- An alternative preferred combination dosage form includes a capsule containing 1 mg bisacodyl and 500mg psyllium husk.
- the dosage form preferably includes prune powder. Also preferably, the dosage form further includes goji berry powder.
- the combination dosage form may further include other bulking agents; further include osmotic agents; surface active agents; slippery elm or desiccated fruit powders.
- Preferred osmotic agents include magnesium sulphate, sodium phosphate, sodium picosulphate or combinations thereof.
- a preferred surface active agents is docusate.
- a preferred desiccated fruit powder is apricot powder.
- the dosage forms of the present invention may further include an anthraquinone stimulant.
- an anthraquinone stimulant for preference this may be senna, sennosides a and b, cascara segrada or mixtures thereof.
- combination dosage forms of the present invention also encompass those dosage forms in which the active ingredients are not physically mixed, but are presented to the patient in a manner which facilitates their co-administration, such that the dosage forms function individually as an effective combination.
- the combination or kit preferably contains a discrete dosage of a colonic stimulant and a discrete dosage of a bulking laxative, preferably presented in a manner which facilitates their simultaneous or substantially simultaneous co -administration.
- the combination in this case includes for preference a blister pack having a bulking laxative and a colonic stimulant positioned thereupon in a manner which ensures the simultaneous or substantially simultaneous co-administration of the bulking laxative and a colonic stimulant .
- the bulking laxative and a colonic stimulant may be placed in adjacent blisters or compartments, or may be placed together in a single blister.
- the packaging may bear indicia to ensure correct administration.
- the invention provides a blister pack having a blister including a bisacodyl tablet or capsule adjacent to a blister including a psyllium capsule or tablet.
- the blister pack may bear instructions or have accompanying instructions to ensure that the two drugs are always taken together.
- the amounts of each individual medicament may be as disclosed above.
- the invention provides a method of treating constipation in a subject in need thereof comprising the step of providing to said subject a combination of a colonic stimulant and a bulking laxative.
- the method of treating constipation in a subject in need thereof comprises the step of providing to said subject a combination dosage form according to the first aspect.
- the constipation is preferably associated with poor motility and/or DBS.
- the invention provides a' method of maintaining or improving the regularity and/or ease of defecation comprising providing to said subject a combination of a colonic stimulant and a bulking laxative.
- the method of maintaining or improving the regularity and/or ease of defecation comprises the step of providing to said subject a combination dosage form according to the first aspect.
- the invention provides the use of a colonic stimulant in combination with a bulking laxative for the manufacture of a medicament for the treatment of constipation.
- the constipation is preferably associated with poor motility and/or IBS.
- the invention provides the use of a colonic stimulant in combination with a bulking laxative for the manufacture of a medicament for maintaining or improving the regularity and/or ease of defecation.
- the use includes a non-cramping amount of a colonic stimulant and also preferably a non-bloating amount of a bulking laxative.
- the colonic stimulant is bisacodyl. Any therapeutically effective amount of bisacodyl may be used.
- the dose of bisacodyl may be 0.05mg or above although preferably the dose of bisacodyl is between 0.5mg and 5mg.
- the bulking agent is one or more of natural bran fibre, sterculia husks, ispaghula husks or psyllium. More preferably the bulking agent is psyllium, preferably the dose of psyllium husk is between 0.25g and 5g.
- the medicament is preferably in the form of a tablet or more preferably in the form of a capsule.
- One preferred medicament includes 0.5mg bisacodyl and 500mg psyllium husk.
- An alternative preferred medicament includes 1 mg bisacodyl and 500mg psyllium husk.
- the medicament is in the form of a powder.
- the powder may be available as a homogeneous powder in bulk form, or as a powder contained in a standard, predetermined dosage form.
- the material contains between 2.5 mg bisacodyl and 20 mg of bisacodyl per 300mg or powder.
- the medicament would contain between 280 mg and 297.5 mg of psyllium husk.
- Other ingredients may also be present, including agents added to ensure that the homogeneity of the formulation is maintained.
- the bulk formulation is accompanied by a device which dispenses an accurate, predetermined amount of medicament.
- the bulk formulation could be accompanied by a measuring cylinder or spoon designed to dispense a predetermined amount, for example, 300 mg, of medicament.
- the medicament is presented as a powder in the form of a discrete pre-packaged amount. This may be for preference in the form of a sachet.
- the discrete pre-packaged medicament may contain anywhere between 2.5 mg and 20 mg of bisacodyl, and may contain between 250 and 2g of psyllium husk. However, it is preferred to use one of two preferred dosage forms. One preferred dosage form contains 5 mg bisacodyl and about 295 mg psyllium husk (about 300 mg altogether). The other preferred dosage form contains 10 mg bisacodyl and about 290 mg psyllium husk in 300 mg of medicament.
- the medicament preferably includes prune powder. Also preferably, the medicament further includes goji berry powder
- the medicament may further including other bulking agents; further including osmotic agents; surface active agents; slippery elm or desiccated fruit powders.
- Preferred osmotic agents include magnesium sulphate, sodium phosphate, sodium picosulphate or combinations thereof
- a preferred surface active agent is docusate.
- a preferred desiccated fruit powder is apricot powder.
- the medicament may further include an anthraquinone stimulant.
- an anthraquinone stimulant for preference this may be senna, sennosides a and b, cascara segrada or mixtures thereof.
- the present inventor has found in clinical practice that different classes of laxatives have a synergistic effect, so that the combined effect is greater than the sum of the two effects. Also, and more importantly, in single laxative therapy, the bowel becomes resistant to any one laxative after a time and becomes less effective (or even ineffective), whilst in the combination therapy of the present invention, the bowel tends not to become resistant if two laxatives are used.
- the laxatives should be taken at the same time in the day so that they reach the bowel at the same time. It is very difficult to get patients to persist with taking laxatives together, and long-term compliance with this is poor.
- the best combination of laxatives is a bulking agent together with a stimulant.
- a high dose of a stimulant is a very effective laxative but the dosage required to be effective will sometimes cause abdominal cramps.
- the dose of a stimulant can be significantly reduced by taking the stimulant together with a bulking agent.
- a high dose of a bulking agent is also effective, but causes bloating in many patients.
- a lower dose of the bulking agent can be taken when combined with a stimulant.
- Bisacodyl is an effective stimulant of the colon. It often causes crampy pain or diarrhoea when used in high doses. However when used together with a bulking agent then the dose of bisacodyl can be reduced and a lower dose does not cause pain. This combination is highly effective.
- Bisacodyl is available in 5mg tablets in a variety of proprietary preparations. The tablets are small and hard and cannot easily or reliably be broken or cut. For some patients 5mg is too large a dose, causing pain or diarrhoea. Patients experiencing pain with 5mg will usually cease using the laxative. Some patients require more than 5mg but less than lOmg to treat constipation. In such cases lOmg will cause pain while 5mg is not effective and does not induce a bowel action. These patients requiring between 5mg and lOmg will similarly often cease using the drug. The same applies for patients requiring between lOmg and 15mg, as well as with higher doses.
- Bisacodyl is also manufactured as a syrup. Using the syrup form, the dosage can be varied more effectively than the tablets.
- Natural bran fibre is widely used. Sterculia and ispaghula husks are other bulking agents.
- Psyllium is an effective bulking agent. It is a natural fibre which can be used safely over a prolonged period. It is widely available in health stores and some pharmacies. It is presented as a powder in a container, generally containing up to 100Og. It may contain coarse psyllium fibre or may be crushed very finely in order to dissolve in a liquid before drinking. It is also available in capsules containing 525mg psyllium husk.
- the optimal combination of laxative is psyllium as a bulking agent taken together with bisacodyl. Since the syrup form of bisacodyl cannot be mixed with a bulking agent, the preferred combination is the tablet form of bisacodyl together with psyllium. In order to have good compliance with taking the two agents they should be mixed together. This ensures that they are both taken, and that they are taken at the same time together.
- One of the best ways to present the combination is in a capsule containing a known amount of psyllium and bisacodyl.
- the first strength is a capsule with bisacodyl 0.5mg and psyllium husk 500mg (capsule A)
- the second strength is bisacodyl lmg and psyllium husk 500mg (capsule B)
- the third strength is bisacodyl 2mg and psyllium husk 500mg (capsule C)
- Instructions for use are generally be 5 capsules daily taken as a single dose. This delivers 2.5g of psyllium husk and 2.5mg bisacodyl in capsule A, and 2.5g of psyllium husk and 5mg bisacodyl in capsule B, and 2.5g of psyllium husk and lOmg bisacodyl in capsule C.
- the dose of psyllium husk per capsule can be varied between 0.25g and 5g.
- the dose of bisacodyl per capsule can be varied between 0.05mg and 5mg.
- psyllium 500mg is psyllium 500mg, prune powder 150mg, and bisacodyl 0.5mg.
- the dose of psyllium can be varied between 0.25g and 5g, the dose of bisacodyl 0.50mg to 5mg, and prune powder lOOmg to 1 g. Attempting to get a patient to take three such substances at the same time in the day has very poor compliance.
- Another combination will be psyllium 500mg, goji berry powder 150mg, and bisacodyl 0.5mg.
- the dose of psyllium can be varied between 0.25g and 5g, the dose of bisacodyl 0.50mg to 5mg, and goji berry powder lOOmg to Ig.
- agents may be added to the capsules containing psyllium and bisacodyl. These include other bulking agents; osmotic agents such as Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate), sodium phosphate, sodium picosulphate; surface active agents (docusate); slippery elm; desiccated fruit powders such as apricot powder.
- osmotic agents such as Epsom salts (magnesium sulphate), sodium phosphate, sodium picosulphate
- surface active agents such as lasulphate
- slippery elm desiccated fruit powders such as apricot powder.
- the formulations may be dispensed as powders supplied in sachets or other forms of packaging which can deliver a single, predetermined dose.
- the sachets could contain any desired amount of bisacodyl and psyllium in accordance with the invention, but most preferably they contain around 300 mg of material in total.
- the amount of bisacodyl under those circumstances is typically anywhere between 2.5 mg and 20 mg.
- a clinician would wish to dispense either a higher or lower strength formulation, which would be respectively 5mg bisacodyl or 10 mg bisacodyl per 300 mg or material.
- Other excipients as discussed above can be added, but the balance of the material is generally psyllium husk.
- alternative stimulants may be used alone or in combination with bisacodyl.
- Stimulants such as anthraquinones (senna, sennosides a and b, cascara segrada) may damage the colon when used over a long period of time, causing melanosis coli or damage to the nerve plexus of the colon.
- Their use in formulations of the present invention should therefore generally only be considered for short or medium-term use.
- Bowel frequency was variable but frequently 2 or less per week. Patients generally fitted the Rome II criteria for slow colonic transit.
