Formulating Weakly Basic HCl Salts: Relative Ability of Common Excipients to Induce Disproportionation and the Unique Deleterious Effects of Magnesium Stearate

Abstract: The problematic excipients are best explained by the proton accepting capacity of excipient carboxylate groups which have pK(a)'s higher than the pH(max) of the drug salt. Alternative lubricants and disintegrants are suggested and a simple excipient screening process is proposed. Magnesium stearate was the most deleterious excipient for HCl salts due to the formation of the deliquescent salt magnesium chloride.

“…Furthermore, properties of the byproducts produced because of drug–excipient interaction can also affect the performance of API. John et al observed a unique disproportionation behavior of an HCl salt in the presence of magnesium stearate because of in situ formation of magnesium chloride, and where its deliquescent nature was responsible for the enhanced disproportionation of the HCl salt. Thus, it is important to investigate the influence of excipients on the performance of oral solid dosage forms as early as possible during development to identify and avoid performance‐related issues attributed to the excipients.…”

“…A well‐designed excipient screening study during early development can help selecting suitable excipients that improve the functionality of the API . Also, it can help in the elimination of excipients having deleterious effect on the performance of API and/or find the solutions to mitigate the issues attributed to the excipient …”

“…Eight different USP buffers were used: hydrochloric acid buffers pH 1.2 and 2.0 and phosphate buffers pH 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, and 8.0. 36 The pH-solubility curve was plotted to determine the pH max of the IIIM-290·HCl salt.…”

“…In many instances, the high energy formulation strategies that are typically utilised to enhance the exposure of poorly soluble APIs, such as size reduction via wet‐bead milling, amorphous stabilised dosage form using lyophilisation, spray‐drying or hot melt granulation, are better served using the free acid/base version of the drug, which is less prone to disproportionation [113]. In addition to the impact of the secondary process, the formulation itself can influence the degree of disproportionation [114,115]. Merritt et al .…”

“…[113] In addition to the impact of the secondary process, the formulation itself can influence the degree of disproportionation. [114,115] Merritt et al developed a modelling approach (using QbD approaches) to understand disproportionation and select the optimum combination of excipients. [116] A recent review outlined the formulation strategies used to optimise clinical exposure of a novel API and the impact on the solid-state strategy.…”
