ABSTRACT
Objective:To explore the clinical effect ofpaishitang combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride on the patient with up per urinary calculi after extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL).Methods:120 cases with upper urinary calculi in our hospital from January 2015 to September 2016 were selected and divided into two groups according to the random number table,60 cases in each group.ESWL was given to both groups of patients and provided with tamsulosin hydrochloride postoperation,then paishitang were additionally given to the patients in the observation group.The clinical effect and changes of serum creatinine (Scr),neutrophil gelatinase as sociated lipocalin (NGAL),cystatin C (Cys-C) and glomerular filtration rate (GFR) levels before and after treatment were compared between two groups.Results:The total effective rate of observation group was 96.67％,which was 86.67％ in the control group,no signifi cant difference was found in the total effective rate between the two groups(P＜0.05).The stone discharge rate was 95.00％ in the observation group,which was significantly higher than that of the control group (P＜0.05);the incidence rate of renal colic was 6.67％,which was significantly lower than that of the control group(P＜0.05),the stone discharge time and the duration of hematuria were significantly shorter than those in the control group (P＜0.01).There was no significant difference in the recurrence rate between the two groups within one year (P＞0.05).The serum NGAL and Cys-C levels of both groups were gradually increased while the GFR levels were gradually decreased on the 1st,2nd day postoperation,but all the index mentioned above gradually recovered on the 3rd day postoperation.The levels of NGAL and Cys-C in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group on the 1st,3rd day postoperation while the GFR was significantly higher in the observation group than those of control group on the 1st,3rd day postoperation(P＜0.01).No significant difference was found in the Scr at different time points postoperation between two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion:Paishitang combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride had significant clinical effect on thpatient with upper urinary calculus after ESWL and could effectively improve the renal injury induced by ESWL.

ABSTRACT
Objective To prepare tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release pellet by coating with acrylic copolymers. Methods EUDRAGIT® NE 30 D was used as the main sustained-release material, EUDRAGIT® L 30 D-55 and Methocel® E3 were used as release adjust agent; a one layer sustained-release coating was done for tamsulosin hydrochloride-loaded pellet in bottom spray fluid bed. A three factor, three-level Box-Behnken design was used to optimize the percentages of EUDRAGIT® L 30 D-55 and Methocel® E3 in the total dry polymers and the weight gain of total dry polymers as the three nonlinear factors, which mainly influenced drug release of the pellets in the formula of sustained-release coating layer. In-vitro cumulative drug release after 2 h, 3 h and 5 h was tested and the following target range:2 h 12%-39%, 3 h 44%-70% and 5 h>70% were set for optimization. Results The formulation and process of one layer sustained-release coating, which was synergistically controlled by the three materials based on acrylic copolymers, was determined after optimization:the total dry polymers were applied with a weight gain of 12% on drug pellets, with EUDRAGIT® L 30 D-55 dry polymers and Methocel® E3 being 7% and 2% of the total dry polymers, respectively. The sustained-release pellets coated with the optimized formulation provided a release profile that was close to the predicted value and similar to that of the commercial product Harnal® capsule pellets by f2 similarity factor comparison (f2 values of three batches were 71,73 and 80). Conclusion The established formulation and process is a simple and reproducible method to prepare tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-release pellets with good stability.

MethodsEighty PE patients from September 2010 to January 2011 were divided into two groups randomly,the 0.2 mg dose group and the 0.4 mg dose group.The therapeutic effect was assessed by the changes of the patients' CIPE-5 scores.ResultsThe intra-vaginal ejaculation latency time (IELT) of the two groups were (0.98 ± 0.47 ) and ( 0.89 ± 0.47 ) min respectively before treatment,and (4.40 ± 1.86 ) and (6.40 ± 5.10) min respectively after treatment.There were significant differences ( P ＜ 0.01 ).As for satisfaction degree of sexual life,lessening the patients' sexual anxiety and nervousness,and decreasing the difficulty in retarding ejaculation,the group of 0.4 mg had better effect than the other group.ConclusionLarge dose of tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained release tablets could prolong IELT and increase the sexual satisfaction.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE: To optimize the formulation of tamsulosin hydrochloride orally disintegrating tablets by orthogonal experiment and to determine its dissolution and stability.METHODS: The formulation of tablets was optimized by orthogonal experiment based on 3 factors: the proportions of microcrystalline cellulose(A),lactose(B),and the cross-link sodium starch glycolate(C) and 3 indexes: disintegrating time(td),the wet time(t) and the suspend stability(?A).The dissolution of the tablets was determined and its stability in different condition was followed for 24 months.RESULTS: To optimum preparation technical conditions for the tablets were as follows: the proportions of A,B,and C were 30%,15% and 10%,respectively.The tablets disintegrated completely within 30 s,with mean td at(20.1?4.2) s,t(24.2?2.1) s,and ?A 0.002 4.No obvious change was noted in appearance and content for the samples within 24 mouths.CONCLUSION: The tamsulosin hydrochloride orally disintegrating tablets were up to the standards of Chinese Pharmacopeia.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To prepare tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-released tablets and to investigate the in vitro drug release feature and mechanism of the tablets.METHODS:Tamsulosin hydrochloride sustained-released tablets were prepared with HPMC as matrix.The effects of multiple factors on the in vitro drug release rate were evaluated with accumulative release rate as index,and the slow release feature was compared between the sustained tablets and the common tablets.RESULTS:The drug release rate was predominantly influenced by the amount of HPMC and the tablet compressing pressure,and the optimum values of the two were 25% and 8kg～11kg,respectively.The accumulative release rates of the sustained tablets and the common tablets at 0.5h were 10% and 50%,respectively.CONCLUSIONS:The sustained-release tablets had a better sustained release efficacy as compared with common tablets,and the drug release feature of the sustained tablets was the synergistic action of the tamsulosin hydrochloride diffusion and matrix degradation and the release pattern obeyed non-Fick diffusion mechanism.
