Definitions
- the present invention relates to an improved pharmaceutical composition containing sildenafil intended for nasal administration for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction due to organic, psychogenic and mixed causes.
- the composition is also particularly effective in patients with erectile dysfunction due to spinal cord injury.
- the pharmaceutical composition of the present invention may be in the form of a solution or a colloidal dispersion in a pharmaceutical vehicle.
- the composition can be filled into specially designed dosing device for nasal administration.
- Sildenafil has the chemical formula C 22 H 30 N O 4 S
- Sildenafil is potent and selective inhibitor of type V cyclic guanosine mono phosphodiestrase (cGMP) with utility for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction. Recently, it has been hypothesized that penile erections are dependent on nitric oxide (NO) and its second messenger cGMP. Sildenafil amplifies the neuronal nitric oxide (NO) / cGMP pathway implicated in the relaxation of the corpus cavernosum. The drug is well tolerated orally. Headache, dyspepsia, facial flushing and muscular ache are the common adverse events reported [Steers, W. D. et al. 2 nd Meet Eur. Soc. Impotence Res.
- cGMP cyclic guanosine mono phosphodiestrase
- sildenafil citrate (M/s Pfizer Inc.). Sildenafil citrate is soluble in dimethylformamide, sparingly soluble in acetic acid, slightly soluble in alcohol. About 3.5 mg is soluble in water.
- JP 10298062 a pharmaceutical composition in the form of tablets that rapidly soluble in the oral cavity and manufacturing procedure has been disclosed.
- WO 9830209 a rapidly releasing and taste masking pharmaceutical composition
- a core containing Sildenafil an inner coating layer formed of a water soluble polymer and an outer coating layer formed on inner coating containing saliva insoluble polymer and a process for preparing such oral dosage form
- sildenafil is administered orally about one hour before intercourse. This is a major disadvantage of the oral formulations, creating in convenience to the partners. Rapid onset of action is highly desirable in such therapeutic indication for patients.
- WO 00/00199 an intranasal dosage unit of cyclic guanosine monophosphate specific phosphodiesterase inhibitors are described which are combined with suitable intranasal carriers having a buffer, surfactant and absorption enhancers, in order to achieve a peak plasma concentration of the inhibitor in less than 1 hour, and desirably with in 30 minutes of administration in mammals.
- active ingredient is dispersed in a buffer followed by thickening agent, humectant and surfactant are added.
- the disadvantage associated with this type of suspension formulations is that the dispersed drug particles in the viscous medium may have to over come the resistance caused by the medium to reach onto the surface of the mucous membrane for its dissolution and penetration through the membrane. Further the drug is in solid state with less fluid volume and surface area made available for dissolution and penetration that reduces the absorption of drug compared to solution.
- the dispersion system may delay onset of action initially, though it prolongs the duration of action due to slow penetration. The delay m the onset of action may cause patient incompliance. Further, the limited solubility of the sildenafil citrate may leads to improper dosing of the formulation.
- the above patent also claimed an intranasal powder formulation by using sildenafil mesylate and lactose.
- the composition was milled to an average particles of 20 microns size and filled into a gelatin capsule for use with a commercial nasal device. Inhalation of this powder may cause irritation to the mucous membrane, and absorption of the active ingredient is slow compared to the solution form as described above.
- WO 9966933 a method for rapidly and reliably delivering sildenafil to the systemic circulation of a patient intranasally in a pharmaceutical composition contained sildenafil or a pharmaceutically acceptable salts and carrier was disclosed.
- sildenafil citrate was dissolved with the help of mesylic acid and the pH adjusted to 2.8 to 3.0 with sodium hydroxide.
- a "sildenafil nasal spray solution" containing sildenafil hydrochloride dissolved in phosphate buffer and isotonicity adjusted with sodium chloride.
- aqueous nasal gel which contains sildenafil hydrochloride, methocel and an acetate buffer. It has also disclosed a composite nasal spray solution containing sildenafil hydrochloride, and apomorphine hydrochloride.
- the main objective of the present invention is to provide an improved pharmaceutical composition intended for nasal administration for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction due to organic, pyschogenic and mixed causes containing sildenafil for nasal application.
- Yet another objective of the present invention is to provide an improved pharmaceutical composition in the fo ⁇ of a solution or colloidal dispersion intended for nasal administration for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction due to organic, psychogenic and mixed causes containing sildenafil for nasal application in a suitable pharmaceutical vehicle, comprising of a solvent, co- solvent and / or solubilizing agent, penetration enhancer, stabilising agent, buffering agent, and a tonicity agent; optionally contain an anti-microbial agent and / or viscosity modifying agents.
- Still another objective of the invention is to provide a method for preparing the improved pharmaceutical composition containing sildenafil in the form of a solution or colloidal dispersion intended for nasal administration for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction due to organic, psychogenic and mixed causes.
- the present invention is based on our finding that the poorly water soluble sildenafil or its salt, dissolves completely in mild acids such as lactic acid, hydrochloric acid, ascorbic acid, citric acid, succinic acid, maleic acid, orthophosphoric acid or methyl sulfonic acid and the resulting solution when mixed with solubilisers and penetration enhancers such as polyethyleneglycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, ethyl alcohol, purified diethylene glycol monoethyl ether, propyleneglycol monolaurate and the pH is adjusted 3.0 to 8.0 with citrate, acetate or phosphate buffer and tonicity is adjusted with sodium chloride or dextrose or mannitol, the resulting composition acquires unique property of promoting rapid absorption of sildenafil resulting in rapid onset of action when administered through the nasal route due to synergistic activities of the above said components. It was noticed that the free base of sildenafil is preferably more soluble in as
- lactic acid is more preferable as it is highly biocompatible and is present in organs such as lever, kidney, thymus gland, stratum corneum, human amniotic fluid and other organs and body fluids.
- the above said pharmaceutical composition has rapid onset of action upon administration through nasal route with out any adverse effects due to the synergistic effect of the ingredients employed in the composition which results in keeping the active ingredient namely sildenafil or its salt in solution or dispersion fo ⁇ and absorption is further promoted by penetration enhancers making it absorb readily when the composition is administered through the nasal route for eliciting the desired therapeutic response.
- composition can be filled into a suitable container fitted with nasal applicator.
- the composition can be filled either in multiple dose container fitted with an applicator or "Monospray” (supplied by M/s Valois India Pvt., Ltd., 407, Madhava,Bandra-kurla Complex, Bondra(E), Mumbai- 400 051), filled with single dose of medicament.
- the present invention provides an improved pharmaceutical composition intended for nasal administration for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction due to organic, psychogenic and mixed causes in the form of solution or colloidal dispersion, which comprises solution or colloidal dispersion of Sildenafil or its salt in a "Protogenic" solvent containing solubilisers and penetration enhancers, stabilizing agent, buffering agents and an isotonicity agent, the solution or the dispersion having a pH in the range of 3.0 to 8.0.
- the solution or the dispersion is stable at room temperature and sub ambient temperatures as well without any precipitation and/or re-crystallisation.
