Abstract:
Object To study the preparation and technology on sinomenine (SM) release from Sinomenine Sustained-release Tablets (SSTs) in which hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) was used as the primary excipients. Methods SSTs were prepared with different HPMC viscosity of K4M, K15M, and K100M, different HPMC content, and preparing technology. Results Little effect was observed on the releasing rate of SM with different HPMC viscosity when the content of HPMC was 30%. SM releasing rate increased with the decreasing of proportion of HPMC while the content of HPMC was less than 30%. But the releasing velocity slowed down while the content of HPMC increased and the effect on the releasing rate was not found as the content of HPMC was over 30%. When the ratio of SM and HPMC was 1∶1.5, the releasing rate decreased with the increasing of tablet weight from 280 mg to 360 mg. The releasing rate was insensitive to the particle size of HPMC and hardness of SSTs in this study. Conclusion It is necessary to control the tablet weight and choose the proper quantity of HPMC in the preparation of SSTs.
