Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To optimize the formulation of Cilnidipine sustained-release tablet,and study its drug-release mecha-nism. METHODS:Solvent method was adopted to prepare the cilnidipine solid dispersion,then Cilnidipine sustained-release tablet was prepared by using hypromellose K4M(HPMC K4M)as release material. Using comprehensive scores of cumulative release de-gree in 2,6,12 h as indexes,single factor method and Box-Behnken response surface method were used to screen the amounts of HPMC K4M and ethyl cellulose (EC),lactose-microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) ratio in formulation of Cilnidipine sustained-re-lease tablet,and verification test was conducted. The drug-release mechanism of Cilnidipine sustained-release tablet was investigat-ed by model fitting way. RESULTS:The optimal formulation was as follow as 25% of cilnidipine solid dispersion,30% of HPMC K4M,10% of EC,lactose-MCC ratio of 1:1(m/m). The adhesive was 5% PVPP ethanol solution and the lubricant was 0.5%magnesium stearate. The cumulative release degrees of prepared sustained-release tablet in 2,6,12 h were(21.4±3.3)%,(62.9± 2.8)%,(85.4±0.5)%(n=3),relative error of which to predicted value 25%,60%,90%were 14.4%,4.8%and 5.1%. Release curve showed the highest fitting degree with the first-order release model,conforming to non-Fick diffusion. CONCLUSIONS:Cil-nidipine sustained-release tablet with sustained-release effect is successfully prepared by optimized formulation.
