In the case of capsule-based dry powder inhalation systems (DPIs), the selection of the appropriate capsule is important. The use of gelatin, gelatin-PEG, and HPMC capsules has become widespread in marketed capsule-based DPIs. We aimed to perform a stability test according to the ICH guideline in the above-mentioned three capsule types. The results of the novel combined formulated microcomposite were more favorable than those of the carrier-free formulation for all capsule types. The use of HPMC capsules results in the greatest stability and thus the best in vitro aerodynamic results for both DPI powders after six months. This can be explained by the fact that the residual solvent content (RSC) of the capsules differs. Under the applied conditions the RSC of the HPMC capsule decreased the least and remained within the optimal range, thus becoming less fragmented, which was reflected in the RSC, structure and morphology of the particles, as well as in the in vitro aerodynamic results (there was a difference of approximately 10% in the lung deposition results). During pharmaceutical dosage form developments, emphasis should be placed in the case of DPIs on determining which capsule type will be used for specific formulations. |
