Abstract

A process is described for the preparation of granulates that contain liposoluble and hydrophobic substances, preferably steroidal substances, and that exhibit rapid and excellent water-dispersibility. The process comprises:
a) the dispersion of substance (A) in water in the presence of a surfactant (B), b) the incorporation of a water-soluble polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) in the aqueous dispersion until a granulable pasty mass is obtained and c) the granulation of the mass. The granulates so obtained are suitable for the preparation, at the time of use, of stable and homogeneous aqueous suspensions that are used for nutritional, cosmetic or, preferably, pharmaceutical purposes.

Claims (22)

1. A process for preparing a granulate that exhibits rapid and excellent water-dispersibility and that contains liposoluble and hydrophobic substances, having a water-solubility at 20°C of less than 20 µml, which process comprises:
a) the dispersion of substance (A) in water in the presence of a surfactant (B), b) the incorporation of a water-soluble polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) in the aqueous dispersion until a granulable pasty mass is obtained and c) the granulation of the mass, wherein the surfactant (B) and the polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) are present in amounts by weight of, respectively, from 0.013 to 0.7 of (B) and from 1 to 6 of (C), per unit of liposoluble substance (A).
2. A process according to claim 1, wherein the substance (A) is a steroidal substance, preferably megestrol acetate.
3. A process according to claim 1, wherein the surfactant (B) is a polysorbate, preferably polysorbate 80.
4. A process according to claim 1, wherein the dispersion of the liposoluble substance (A) in water is effected at a temperature of from 20°C to 60°C, preferably from 25°C to 40°C.
5. A process according to claim 1, wherein the water-soluble polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) is selected from mannitol, sorbitol, lactose and fructose and mixtures thereof.
6. A process according to claim 1, wherein the surfactant (B) and the polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) are present, in amounts by weight, of from 0.02 to 0.33 of (B) and from 3 to 5 of (C), per unit of liposoluble substance (A).
7. A process according to claim 1, wherein the amount of water, by weight, relative to substance (A), is from 0.2 to 1, preferably from 0.5 to 0.7.
8. A granulate obtainable according to claims 1 to 7.
9. A granulate according to claim 8, having a content of substance (A) of from 5 to 50% by weight, preferably from 15 to 25% by weight.
10. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a granulate according to claim 8.
11. A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 10, in the form of an aqueous dispersion.
12. A pharmaceutical composition according to claim 10, in the form of a packet, an effervescent packet, a syrup prepared at the time of use, a tablet, an effervescent tablet and a quick-dissolving sublingual tablet.
13. A process for the preparation of an aqueous dispersion according to claim 11, characterized in that the granulate is mixed with at least 80 ml of water per gram of granulate and is agitated until complete dispersion has occurred.
14. A granulate comprising a liposoluble and hydrophobic substance (A), having a water-solubility at 20°C of less than 20 µg/ml, a surfactant (B), and a water soluble polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) in amounts by weight of, respectively, from 0.013 to 0.7 of (B) and from 1 to 6 of (C), per unit of liposoluble substance (A).
15. A granulate according to claim 14 characterized in that said liposoluble substance (A) is a steroidal substance.
16. A granulate according to claim 14 characterized in that said liposoluble substance (A) is megestrol acetate.
17. A granulate according to claims 14 to 16 characterized in that the surfactant (B) is a polysorbate, preferably polysorbate 80.
18. A granulate according to claims 14 to 17 characterized in that water-soluble polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) is selected from mannitol, sorbitol, lactose and fructose and mixtures thereof.
19. A granulate according to claims 14 to 18 wherein the surfactant (B) and the polyhydroxylated solid excipient (C) are present, in amounts by weight, of from 0.02 to 0.33 of (B) and from 3 to 5 of (C), per unit of liposoluble substance (A).
20. A granulate according to claims 14 to 19 characterized by further containing pharmaceutically acceptable excipients.
21. A granulate according to claims 14 to 20 characterized in that said liposoluble substance (A) is present in amounts of 5 to 50% by weight.
22. A granulate according to claim 21 characterized in that said liposoluble substance (A) is present in amounts of 15 to 25% by weight.
