## Abstract

An anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation is disclosed, comprising a flexible support having laminated thereon a pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer which contains a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having salt form and an organic acid. This adhesive preparation has excellent percutaneous absorption properties.

## Background
The present invention relates to an anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation having excellent percutaneous absorption properties.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agents do not exhibit such serious side effects as exhibited in steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agents, and are widely used in a clinical field.

However, these non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agents have a disadvantage to still cause various side effects such as gastro-intenstinal lesion although not to the extent that is caused by steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agents. In order to minimize such side effects, various dosage forms are now under extentisve investigation.

Recently, in order to overcome the above problems on side effects and maintain the drug effects for a long period of time, an administration method to percutaneously absorb the effective component is being watched. Various ointments and adhesive preparations containing an effective component so as to practically employ the administration method have been developed.

However, the skin has a stratum corneum containing keratin as a major component and further contains a large amount of a fat-soluble component such as fat, wax and cholesterol. Therefore, the skin has a physiological defensive function, a so-called "barrier function", and as a result, it is difficult to easily make a percutaneous absorption of a drug.

In particular, many of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agents, the utility of which is highly valued, have a salt form, and the skin exhibits a strong barrier function against drugs having a salt form.

On the other hand, skin adhesive preparations are composed of a pressure-sensitive adhesive material comprising a rubber or acrylic high molecular weight material as a base material. These materials generally do not dissolve drugs sufficiently, and it is quite difficult to uniformly dissolve the drug having the salt form and maintain the dissolved state. Even if the drug in the skin adhesive preparation is prepared in the dissolved state, crystallization of the drug contained occurs during the storage, sometimes inhibiting the percutaneous absorption of the drug.

As a result of extensive investigations on an adhesive preparation which overcomes the above disadvantages, and increases the solubility and percutaneous absorption of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form, thereby exhibiting the effect in treating disease, it has been found that if a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form is contained in a pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer in combination with an organic acid, the solubility of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material increases and the transfer of the drug to the skin surface is facilitated, whereby the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent can easily penetrate through the stratum corneum as a barrier layer.

An object of the present invention is to provide an anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation having high percutaneous absorption properties of a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form.

Another object of the present invention is to provide an anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation in which a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form is uniformly dissovled in a pressure-sensitive adhesive material.

The anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation of the present invention comprises a flexible support having laminated thereon a pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer containing a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form and an organic acid.

The term "a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form" used herein excludes Dichlofenac Sodium. Therefore, unless otherwise indicated, the term "non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form" is defined to exclude Dichlofenac Sodium.

The pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer which can be used in the present invention is a layer containing and maintaining a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form as an effective component and an organic acid as an additive to increase solubility and percutaneous absorption of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form. The material for such layer is not particularly limited so long as it is a material capable of achieving the above objects and it is a layer made of a material capable of adhering to the skin surface.

High molecular weight adhesive materials can be used as the pressure-sensitive adhesive materials. Examples of the materials are acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive materials; rubbers such as silicone rubber, polyisoprene rubber, polyisobutylene rubber, polybutadiene, styrene-butadiene (or isoprene)-styrene block copolymer rubber, acrylic rubber and natural rubber; vinyl-based high molecular weight materials such as polyvinyl alkyl ether, polyvinyl acetate, a partially saponified product of polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl pyrrolidone; cellulose derivatives such as methyl cellulose, carboxylmethyl cellulose and hydroxypropyl cellulose; polysaccharides such as pullulan, dextrin and agar; polyurethane elastomers; and polyester elastomers.

Of these compounds, acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive materials are preferred from standpoints of adhesive properties to the skin and stability of the drug. In particular, pressure-sensitive adhesive materials comprising copolymers of an alkyl ester of (meth)acrylic acid, an alkyl ester of (meth)acrylic acid containing an ether bond in the molecule and copolymerizable monomers other than the above-described monomers are used as materials having low skin irritating properties and solubility of the drugs.

Examples of acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive materials selected from the standpoints of adhesive properties to the skin and stability of the drug are homo- or copolymers of at least one of alkyl esters of (meth)acrylic acid such as butyl (meth)acrylate, pentyl (meth)acrylate, hexyl (meth)acrylate, heptyl (meth)acrylate, octyl (meth)acrylate, nonyl (meth)acrylate, decyl (meth)acrylate, undecyl (meth)acrylate, dodecyl (meth)acrylate, and tridecyl (meth)acrylate, and copolymers of at least one of the above esters and other monomers copolymerizable therewith.

Examples of the copolymerizable monomer include carboxyl group-containing monomers such as (meth)acrylic acid, itaconic acid, crotonic acid, maleic acid, maleic anhydride and fumaric acid; sulfoxyl group-containing monomers such as styrenesulfonic acid, arylsulfonic acid, sulfopropyl acrylate, (meth)acryloyloxynaphthalenesulfonic acid, acrylamidomethylpropanesulfonic acid and acryloyloxybenzenesulfonic acid; hydroxyl group-containing monomers such as hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate and hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate; amide group-containing acrylic monomers such as (meth)acrylamide, dimethyl(meth)acrylamide, N-butylacrylamide, tetramethylbutylacrylamide and N-methylol(meth)acrylamide; alkylaminoalkyl group-containing acrylic monomers such as aminoethyl (meth)acrylate, dimethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate, diethylaminoethyl (meth)acrylate and tertbutyl (meth)acrylate; alkyl esters of acrylic acid containing an ether bond in the molecule thereof such as methoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, ethoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, butoxyethyl (meth)acrylate, tetrahydrofurfuryl (meth)acrylate, methoxyethylene glycol (meth)acrylate, methoxydiethylene glycol (meth)acrylate, methoxypolyethylene glycol (meth)acrylate and methoxypolypropylene glycol (meth)acrylate; vinyl monomers such as N-(meth)acryloylamino acid; functional monomers such as acrylic monomers such as urethane, urea or isocyanate ester of acrylic acid; and vinyl monomers such as (meth)acrylonitrile, vinyl acetate, vinyl propionate, vinyl pyrrolidone, vinyl pyridine, vinyl pyrazine, vinyl piperadine, vinyl piperidone, vinyl pyrimidine, vinyl pyrrole, vinyl imidazole, vinyl caprolactam, vinyl oxazole, vinyl thiazole, vinyl morpholine, styrene, .alpha.-methylstyrene and bis(N,N'-dimethylaminoethyl) maleate.

The above alkyl esters of (meth)acrylic acid and copolymerizable monomers include isomers in which the alkyl portion is straight or branched, and isomers and derivatives in which the position of substituents is different.

It is desirable from a standpoint of the balance between adhesive properties to the skin and cohesion that the ratio of the alkyl ester of (meth)acrylic acid to the copolymerizable monomer in the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive material is 50:50 to 99:1 by weight. When alkyl esters of (meth)acrylic acid containing an ether bond in the molecule thereof are used from the standpoint of the low skin irritating properties, it is desirable that the ratio of the alkyl ester of (meth)acrylic acid/the alkyl ester of (meth)acrylic acid containing an ether bond in the molecule/the other copolymerizable monomer is 40 to 80/59 to 10/1 to 40.

When the above composition is used, in the case where there is a trouble that after adhering to the skin, it causes the phenomenon of adhesive transfer on the applied skin, thereby contaminating the skin surface, it is preferred that the composition is subjected to suitable chemical crosslinking treatment (e.g., copolymerization of crosslinkable monomers and addition of a crosslinking agent) or physical crosslinking treatment (e.g., irradiation with ultraviolet rays and ionizing radiations such as electron beam) to such an extent of not deteriorating the adhesive properties to the skin.

As salts in the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form which can be used in the present invention, any salts can be used so long as they are pharmaceutically acceptable. For example, alkali metal salts, alkaline earth metal salts, aluminum salts and the like are preferred. Examples thereof are the salts of indomethacin, flufenamic acid, mefenamic acid, tolfenamic acid, meclofenamic acid, ibuprofen, bucolome, alclofenac, amfenac, zomepirac, flurbiprofen, tolmetin, ketoprofen, naproxen, fenbufen, protizinic acid, pranoprofen, sulindac, loxoprofen, fenoprofen, tiaprofenic acid, diflunisal and fentiazac. Of those salts, tolmetin sodium, fenoprofen calcium, sodium meclofenamate, amfenac sodium, zomepirac sodium, loxoprofen sodium and aluminum flufenamate are particularly preferred.

The amount of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form which is compounded in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material is not limited so long as the therapeutic effect is exhibited. The amount of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form compounded in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material is generally 1 to 40 wt%, and preferably 5 to 30 wt%, based on the weight of the pressure-sensitive adhesive material, and 20 to 1,600 .mu.g/cm.sup.2, and preferably 100 to 1,200 .mu.g/cm.sup.2 per unit area.

Since the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent used in the present invention is in a salt form, it is difficult to dissolve a large amount of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer having relatively high lipophilic properties and maintain the agent therein. Even if a large amount of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent is incorporated, in some cases all the drug cannot be dissolved or crystallization of the drug occurs, making it impossible to diffuse a sufficient amount of the drug to the skin surface.

The present invention overcomes this problem by concurrently using an organic acid. The use of the organic acid increases the solubility of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer and also the percutaneous absorption properties.

It is believed that the reason for this is that since by concurrently using the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form and the organic acid, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent is converted into free-based drug having higher oleophilicity, the solubility of the drug in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer is increased and the drug can easily penetrate through the stratum corneum having the barrier function, viz., the percutaneous absorption properties are increased.

As such organic acids, it is preferred to use acids stronger than free-based non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent, and carboxylic acids are particularly preferred. Examples of carboxylic acids include citric acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, maleic acid, fumaric acid, salicylic acid and acetic acid. Citric acid, succinic acid and tartaric acid are particularly preferred.

The amount of the organic acid added in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer is from 5 to 100 parts by weight, preferably from 10 to 50 parts by weight, per 100 parts by weight of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form.

As a support on which the pressure-sensitive adhesive material layer containing the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form and organic acid is provided, a material having a flexibility is chosen in order to conform to the movement of the skin surface. Examples of the supports are a plastic film, nonwoven fabrics, woven fabrics, paper, a metallic foil, a foamed film or combinations thereof.

As described above, in the anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation of the present invention, the organic acid which is compounded in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material in combination with the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form which is sparingly soluble in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material has an function of increasing the solubility of the drug in the pressure-sensitive adhesive material and increasing the percutaneous absorption properties of the drug.

Accordingly, in the anti-inflammatory analgesic adhesive preparation of the present invention, the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesic agent having a salt form compounded in the adhesive is percutaneously absorbed easily, thereby effectively treating inflammation and painful diseases. Furthermore, since the preparation can be externally administered, the side effect is low and the therapeutic effect can be exhibited continuously.
