- compositions comprising Insulin Sensitizer and Insulin Secretagogue
- Pioglitazone hydrochloride ( ⁇ )-5-[[4-[2-(5-ethyl-2- pyridinyl)ethoxy]phenyl]methyl]-2,4-thiazolidinedione monohydrochloride is reported to be an oral antihyperglycemic agent that acts primarily by decreasing insulin resistance.
- Pioglitazone hydrochloride, a member of the thiazolidinedione class is used in the management of type 2 diabetes.
- Glimepiride l-[[p-[2-(3-ethyl-4-methyl-2-oxo-3-pyrroline-l- carboxamido)ethyl]phenyl]sulfonyl]-3-(fr ⁇ «5-4-methylcyclohexyl)-urea is an oral blood glucose-lowering drug of the sulfonylurea class and is normally used in the management of type 2 diabetes.
- Thiazolidinediones are apparently insulin-sensitizing agents that act primarily by enhancing peripheral glucose utilization, whereas sulfonylureas are insulin secretogogues that act primarily by stimulating release of insulin from functioning pancreatic beta cells.
- Duetact® is available as a tablet for oral administration containing 30 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride (as the base) with 2 mg glimepiride (30 mg/2 mg) or 30 mg pioglitazone hydrochloride (as the base) with 4 mg glimepiride (30 mg/4 mg) formulated with the following excipients: croscarmellose sodium NF, lactose monohydrate NF, magnesium stearate NF, hydroxypropyl cellulose NF, polysorbate 80 NF, and microcrystalline cellulose NF.
- US Patent Application Publication No. 2004/0147564 discloses tablets containing glimepiride and a thiazolidinedione, wherein all of the examples have a coating containing polyethylene glycol.
- a solid preparation comprising an insulin sensitizer and an insulin secretagogue had the undesirable dissolution property of the insulin secretagogue. That is, the dissolution rate of an insulin secretagogue in the solid preparation was slower as compared with that of "a solid preparation containing an insulin secretagogue as a single active ingredient".
