A FORMULATION COMPRISING EMPAGLIFLOZIN AND METFORMIN HYDROCHLORIDE
Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a film coated tablet comprising empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride, wherein comprising at least two fillers and the amount of fillers is 10.0% to 60.0% by weight in the total composition, the tablet provides the desired stability and pharmacotechnical properties and the desired dissolution profile. The present invention also relates to a simple, rapid, cost effective, time-saving and industrially convenient method of preparing the tablet.
Background of the Invention
Diabetes mellitus is a group of disorders of carbohydrate metabolism in which the action of insulin is diminished or absent through altered secretion, decreased insulin activity or a combination of both factors. There are two main types of diabetes; Type 1 and Type 2:
Type 1 diabetes occurs because the insulin-producing cells of the pancreas (beta cells) are damaged. In Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas makes little or no insulin, so sugar cannot get into the body's cells for use as energy. People with Type 1 diabetes must use insulin injections to control their blood glucose.
In Type 2 diabetes, the pancreas makes insulin, but it either doesn't produce enough, or the insulin does not work properly. This diabetes occurs most often in people who are over 40 years old and overweighed. Type 2 diabetes may sometimes be controlled with a combination of diet, weight management, and exercise. However, treatment also may include oral glucose-lowering medications or insulin injections.
Metformin is antidiabetics having an orally-administrated biguanide structure. Metformin hydrochloride is a white to off-white crystalline compound and it is freely soluble in water and practically insoluble in acetone, ether and chloroform. Oral doses of metformin are generally recommended in the range of 500 to 2500 mg a day and a single dose may vary from 500 to 850 mg. It is used singly or in combination with sulfonylureas, alpha-glucosidase inhibitors, or insulin.
The chemical name of metformin hydrochloride is 1,1-dimethylbiguanide hydrochloride, has the following chemical structure of Formula I.
Figure imgf000003_0001
Formula I
Empagliflozin is a known SGLT2 inhibitor that is described for the treatment or improvement in glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The chemical name of empagliflozin is 1 - chloro-4-(3-D-glucopyranos-l -yl)- 2-[4-((S)-tetrahydrofuran-3-yloxy)-benzyl]-benzene and its chemical structure is shown in the Formula II.
Figure imgf000003_0002
Formula II
Combination product of empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride is marketed under the trademark Synjardy®. The combination is to help control blood glucose in people with T2D. Empagliflozin, a sodium glucose co-transporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, removes excess glucose through the urine by blocking glucose re-absorption in the kidney.
Active ingredients have some disadvantages in the formulation and process. The main problem encountered when preparing formulations comprising empagliflozin is low solubility, leading to difficulties with disintegration and dissolution times. Furthermore, metformin is a very poorly compressible active substance and metformin presents in high amounts in a composition. This causes some problems for examples; homogeneity, flowability and dissolution profile.
WO2011039337 (Al) application discloses pharmaceutical compositions comprising fixed dose combinations of a SGLT-2 inhibitor drug and a partner drug, processes for the preparation thereof, and their use to treat certain diseases.
CN104586834 (A) application discloses a pharmaceutical composition of empagliflozin and metformin, a preparation method and application thereof. The composition comprises the following components: i.) empagliflozin; ii.) metformin hydrochloride; and one or more fillers; one or more adhesives; one or more flow aids and one or more lubricants.
In the prior art, there are also several patents which disclose empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride in oral pharmaceutical dosage forms. However, because of the dissolution problem of empagliflozin, and the poorly compressible of metformin, an effective formulation and method has not been disclosed.
There still remains a need in the art to provide an improved a film coated tablet comprising empagliflozin and metformin hydrochloride having high solubility, excellent pharmacomechanic properties and accordingly a high bioavailability and a long-term stability which is also obtained by using an effective process.
