1.1 Theophylline sustained-release pellets

a) Formulation

The formulation is designed for 500g of pure theophylline pellets (Spherofillin [1];diameter 0.8-1.3mm)

Polymer suspension Kollicoat® SR 30 D [1] 223.67gPropylene glycol [1] 6.71gWater 149.86g

Pigment suspension Kollidon® 30 [1] 2.24gTitanium dioxide [2] 2.24gSicovit® Red 30 [1] 2.24gTalc [3] 15.66gWater 44.73g

b) Preparation of the spray suspension

Polymer suspension Add propylene glycol followed by Kollicoat® SR30 D to the given quantity of water with stirring.

Pigment suspension Dissolve Kollidon® 30 in the given quantity ofwater. Add Sicovit® Red 30, titanium dioxide andtalc with vigorous stirring and homogenize themixture in a corundum disk mill.

Spray suspension Incorporate the pigment suspension into thepolymer suspension with stirring. The suspensionmust be stirred during the spraying process toprevent settling.

Page7/51 Caffeine sustained-release pellets

c) Coating

The pellets were coated in an Aeromatic Strea-1 (Aeromatic AG). The suspensionwas sprayed continuously onto the fluidized, pre-heated pellets from the top.

Process parameters Inlet air temperature 60°COutlet air temperature 37°CProduct temperature 38°CAir flow 80m³/hNozzle diameter 0.8mmSpraying rate approx. 11.5g/minSpraying time 39 minAtomizing pressure 1.0barDrying 45°C/ 5minCoating weight 2mg film former/cm²

The coating weight of 2mg film former / cm² given here was determined from thesurface area of the pellets. Since the particle size distribution and surface structureinfluence the polymer quantity required, calculating the surface area is recommendedas a means of estimating the required coating weight in each specific case.
