Study on Formulation of Xiqingguo Buccal Tablet / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To study the formulation of Xiqingguo buccal tablet,optimize the proportion and quantity of main materials. METHODS:Using appearance,hardness,dissolution and taste as investigation indexes,orthogonal design was adopted to optimize the proportion and quantity of main thinner(lactose,mannitol),wetting agent(ethanol),lubricant(magnesium stea-rate),flavoring agent(aspartame),and critical relative humidity was detected. RESULTS:By wet granulation,the optimal formu-lation were as follows as the ratio of lactose and mannitol was 13,ethanol volume fraction was 60%,the dosage of menthol, magnesium stearate,aspartame and orange essence was 0.4%,0.9%,2.0%,0.4%;it was proven that the total score of 3 batches of samples were 2.67,2.67,2.70 (RSD=0.65%,n=3),respectively. The critical relative humidity of granule was 60%. CON-CLUSIONSThe Xiqingguo buccal tablet prepared by optimal prescription meets the requirements.
