Construction of sublingual trilaminated Eszopiclone fast dissolving film for the treatment of Insomnia: Formulation, characterization and In vivo clinical comparative pharmacokinetic study in healthy human subjects

Résumé

BACKGROUND: Disturbed sleep can cause to m health problems such as cognitive impairment, depressed mood, and negative effects on cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune function. This study formulates and optimizes Eszopiclone trilaminate fast dissolving film. METHODS: Prepared Eszopiclone trilaminate fast dissolving film (Eszopiclone TFDF) was characterized by disintegration time, drug release, tensile strength (TS), percentage elongation (EB%), folding endurance, taste masking test, and in vitro dissolution test. The selected formulas were F2 (0.5% xanthan gum, 10% propylene glycol), F4 (3% sodium alginate, 10% propylene glycol) and F6 (1.5% pullulan, 10% propylene glycol) were subjected to in vivo study compared to conventional Lunesta® tablet. RESULTS: The results indicated that disintegration time was in the range of 940 m. Drug release was found to be in the field of 78.51%-99.99%, while TS values and EB% differed from 11.12 to 25.74 (MPa) and 25.38%-36.43%, respectively. The folding endurance went between 200 and 300 times. All formulas exhibited acceptable uniformity content, surface pH, film thickness, and a good taste feeling. CONCLUSION: F4 had the highest Cmax (39.741 ± 6.785-μg/l) and lower Tmax (1.063 hr) among other formulas and conventional tablets. Therefore, FDFs' technology could increase the therapeutic effect of Eszopiclone.
