Liquid suppository systems composed of poloxamers and bioadhesive polymers were easy to administer to the anus and mucoadhesive to the rectal tissues without leakage after the dose. However, a liquid suppository containing diclofenac sodium could not be developed using bioadhesive polymers. since the drug was precipitated in this preparation. To develop a liquid suppository system using sodium chloride instead of bioadhesive polymers, the physicochemical properties such as gelation temperature, gel strength and bioadhesive force of various formulations composed of diclofenac sodium, poloxamers and sodium chloride were investigated. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetic study of diclofenac sodium delivered by the liquid suppository was performed. Diclofenac sodium significantly increased the gelation temperature and weakened the gel strength and bioadhesive force, while sodium chloride did the opposite. The liquid suppositories with less than 1.0％ of sodium chloride, in which the drug was not precipitated, were inserted into the rectum without difficulty and leakage. Furthermore, liquid suppository gave significantly higher initial plasma concentrations and faster Tmax of diclofenac sodium than did solid suppository, indicating that drug from liquid suppository could be absorbed faster than that from solid one in rats. Our results suggested that a thermosensitive liquid suppository system with sodium chloride and poloxamers was a more physically stable, convenient and effective rectal dosage form for diclofenac sodium.

The purpose of this study is to develop a transurethral liquid suppository containing prostaglandin $E_1\;(PGE_1)-loaded$ microemulsion, which undergoes a phase transition to gels at body temperature. The effects of oils, ethanol as solvent and HCl as pH-controlling agent on the physicochemical properties of liquid suppositories composed of poloxamer P 407, P 188 and carbopol was investigated. The stability of $PGE_1$ and release of $PGE_1$ from liquid suppository were evaluated. Oils such as Neobee and soybean oil significantly decreased the gelation temperature but increased the gel strength of liquid suppository due to their strongly binding with the components of liquid suppository base. However, ethanol slightly did the opposite. The pH of liquid suppositories hardly affected the gelation temperature and gel strength due to addition of very small HCl (0.005-0.01%). A liquid suppository [$PGE_1/P$ 407/P 188/carbopol/Neobee/ethanol/HCl (0.2/14/14/0.4/7/2/0.005%)], which had the gelation temperature $(34.2{\pm}0.6^{\circ}C)$ and gel strength $(31.35{\pm}4.37\;sec)$ suitable for liquid suppository system, was easily administered and not leak out from the body. About 60% of $PGE_1$ was released out within 2 h from this formulation. It was shown that the release of $PGE_1$ was proportional to the square root of time, indicating that $PGE_1$ might be released from the suppository by Fickian diffusion. It was stable at $4^{\circ}C$ for at least 2 months. The results suggest that transurethral liquid suppository containing prostaglandin $E_1-loaded$ microemulsion is thought to be a convenient, safe and effective dosage form for $PGE_1$. However, it should be further developed as a more convenient and stable dosage form for $PGE_1$.

A novel in situ-gelling and mucoadhesive acetaminophen liquid suppository was developed to improve the patient compliance of conventional solid suppository. In this study, acetaminophen liquid suppository, Likipe $n_{R}$, ［aminophen/Poloxamer 407/Poloxamer 188/so4ium alginate (5/15/19/0.6%)] with relation temperature at 30-36 "C and suitable gel strength and bioadhesive force, dissolution pattern similar to conventional solid type suppository, Suspe $n_{R}$, was developed. Furthermore, the bioequivalence of two acetaminophen products was evaluated in 16 normal male volunteers (age 22-27 yr, body weight 56-72 kg) following sidle rectal administration. Test product was Likipe $n_{R}$ suppository (Dong-Wha Pharm. Corp., Korea)and reference product was Suspe $n_{R}$204-212 suppository (Hanmi Pharm. Corp., Korea). Both products contain 125 mg of acetaminophen. Four Suppositories of the test and the reference product were administered to the volunteers, respectively, by randomized two period cross-over study (2$\times$2 Latin square method). The determination of acetaminophen was accomplished using HPLC. Average drug concentrations at each sampling time and pharmacokinetic parameters calculated were not significantly different between two products (p>0.05); the area under the curve to last sampling time (24 hr) (AU $Co_{-2}$4h/) (30.14$\pm$8.64 vs 27.98$\pm$ 6.53 $\mu$g .h/ml), maximum plasma concentration ( $C_{max}$) (3.29$\pm$0.87 vs 3.60$\pm$0.66 $\mu$g/ml) and time to maximum plasma concentration ( $T_{max}$) (2.91 $\pm$0.55 vs 2.69$\pm$0.60 h). The differences of mean AUCo $_{24h}$, C-a. and T-between the two products (7.18%, 9.58% and 7.53%, respectively) were less than 20%. The power (1-7) and treatment difference ($\Delta$) for AU $Co_{24h}$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ were more than 0.8 and less than 0.2, respectively at $\alpha$=0.1. The confidence limits for AU $Co_{24h}$, $C_{max}$ and $T_{max}$ (-0.81 ~13.55%, -1.56~ 17.60 and -3.81 ~18.87%, respectively) were less than $\pm$ 20% at $\alpha$=0.1. These results suggest that the bioavailability of Likipe $n_{R}$ suppository is not significantly different from that of Suspe $n_{R}$ suppsitory. Therefore, two products are bio-equivalent based on the current results.results.lts.sults.results.lts.

To optimize the formulation of acetaminophen liquid suppository, the effect of additives on the physicochemical properties of liquid suppository base was investigated. The physi cochemical properties of P 407/P 188 (15/15%) (abbreviated in 15/15) and P 407/P l88 (15/20%) (abbreviated in 15/20) were measured after the addition of following additives; 2.5% acetaminophen as an active ingredient, vehicle components (5% ethanol, 5% propylene glycol, 5% glycerin), preservatives (0.1% sodium benzoate, 0,1% methylparahydroxybenzoate, 0.1% propylparahydroxybenzoate) and 1% of sodium chloride as an ionic strength controlling agent. Poloxamer gel was prepared with three different buffer solutions (pH 1.2, 4.0 and 6.8) and the physicochemical properties, gelation temperature, gel strength and bioadhesive force, were determined. In the results, the effect of additives on the physicochemical properties was dependent on their bonding capacities including hydrogen bonding and cross-linking bonding. Because the hydrogen-bonding capacities of acetaminophen, ethanol and propylene glycol were smaller than that of poloxamer, the binding force of poloxamer gel became weak by their putting in between poloxamer gel. Therefore, the gelation temperature (15/15, $35.7^{\circ}C$ vs 37.0, 39.4 $38.2^{\circ}C$; 15/20, $29.2^{\circ}C$ vs 31.2, 32.0, $30.3^{\circ}C$) increased, and gel strength (15/15, 4.03 see vs 2.72, 2.08, 3.12sec; 15/20, 300g vs 50, 50, 200g) and bioadhesive force (15/15, $6.8{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$ vs 3.2, 6.0, $6.0{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$; 15/20, $97.3{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$ vs 11.1, 89.5, $92.0{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$) decreased. Furthermore, the binding force of poloxamer gel became strong due to the hydrogen-bonding capacities of glycerin and the cross-liking bonding of sodium salt. Then, the gelation temperature (15/15, 35.0, $32.1^{\circ}C$; 15/20, 26.0, $21.0^{\circ}C$) decreased, and gel strength (15/15, 6.51 see, 300g; 15/20, 500, 650g) and bioadhesive force (15/15, 7.2, $81.6{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$; 15/20, 112.3, $309.2{\times}10^2\;dyne/cm^2$) increased. The effect of pH on the physicochemical properties of poloxamer gel was dependent on the ingredients with which the buffer solutions were prepared. Poloxamer gels prepared with pH 1.2 and 4.0 buffer solutions had the increasing gelation temperature (15/15, 37.5, $38.1^{\circ}C$; 15/20, 33.1, $34.0^{\circ}C$) and the decreasing gel strength (15/15, 2.98, 3.81sec; 15/20, 200, 200g) and bioadhesive force (15/15, $7.0{\times}10^2dyne/cm^2$; 15/20, $74.0{\sim}88.1{\times}10^2dyne/cm^2$) owing to HCl. Poloxamer gel prepared with pH 6.8 buffer solutions had the decreasing gelation temperature (15/15, $27.2^{\circ}C$; 15/20, $22.3^{\circ}C$) and the increasing gel strength (15/15, 400g; 15/20, 550g) and bioadhesive force (15/15, $207.0{\times}10^2dyne/cm^2$; 15/20, $215.0{\times}10^2dyne/cm^2$) due to the cross-linking bonding of $NaH_2PO_4\;and\;K_2HPO_4$.

Objectives : The purpose of this literature review is to analyze process of manufacture and formulation and toxicity of Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略)'s external applicants for modern and safe using. Methods : This study used the Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略) reprinted by Zhao Kaimei(趙開美) as basic data for a understanding of the manufacture and formulation and toxicity for external applicants. Among the 25 chapters, the 22 chapters were studied except for the last three chapters, which are known to be written by later writers. Based on the above, Geumgweyoryeok(金匱要略)'s external applicants was analyzed the process of manufacture, formulation and the toxicity. Results : There are 11 types of external applicants of Geumgweyoryak(金匱要略). Washing method(洗法) was used 2 times, Drop method(瀝法) was used 1 time, Smoke method(熏法) was used 2 times, Rubbing method(摩法) was used 1 time, Plaster method(敷法) was used 2 times, Invading method(浸法) was used 1 time, Suppository method (坐法) was used 2 times, Flatiron method(烙法) was used 1 time. According to classified the modern formulation, there are 4 types of powder formulation, 4 types of liquid formulation, 2 types of suppository, and 1 type of Semi-solid formulation. Especially toxic drugs, such as Realgar(雄黃) or Hydrocerussite(鉛粉), should be careful. When Realgar(雄黃) smokes, a toxic substance called AS2O3 can come out. Hydrocerussite(鉛粉) can cause lead poisoning. Lead increases the risk of anemia, dehydration, and lead neuropathy when chronically exposed. Conclusion : We supposed that this study can serve as a basic data to help clinical Korean doctors to use the prescription for external applicants more safely and to easily apply it in the form of external applicants.
