Abstract |
In this study, we developed nano-fiber-based tablets with acetaminophen (AAP; LogPow=0.51) for controlled-release delivery systems and evaluated in vitro drug dissolution and in vivo pharmacokinetics in rats. Nano-fibers made from methacrylic acid copolymer S (MAC; EUDRAGIT® S100) and containing AAP were prepared using a solvent-based electrospinning (ES) method. In vitro dissolution rate profiles of AAP showed tableting pressure-dependent decreases and pH-dependent increases. The results of tablet tracking by X-ray irradiation showed tablets based on MAC nano-fibers did not disintegrate in the upper intestinal lumen and had the properties of a long-term-acting tablet. In addition, the in vitro release profiles of AAP from nano-fiber tablets prepared by dissolving MAC with AAP (NFT), nano-fiber tablets prepared by adsorbing AAP to drug-free MAC nano-fibers (NFTadso), and tablets prepared by adsorbing half the amount of AAP to MAC nano-fibers containing the remaining amount of AAP (NFThalf) showed independent controlled-release aspects of AAP compared with physical mixture tablets (PMT). In vivo pharmacokinetic studies in rats after intraduodenal administration of 14mg/rat AAP in NFT, NFTadso, and NFThalf demonstrated that all these tablets based on MAC nano-fibers showed sustained-release profiles compared with PMT, and showed ultra-sustained release properties for AAP. These new tablets based on MAC nano-fibers did not disintegrate in the intestine in the lower pH region, and the tablets could regulate the release of AAP in a pH-dependent manner. The ES method is a useful technique to prepare nano-fibers and showed promising results as an oral delivery system for sustained-release regulation.
