Procedure for encapsulating chlorpheniramine - Patent 5622723 (1792 words) |
 | An improvement in the process of coacervation of chlorpheniramine maleate is provided whereby a predetermined amount of chlorpheniramine maleate charged to the process is maintained in the microcapsules by pre-saturating the coacervation medium with chlorpheniramine maleate. |
| The chlorpheniramine maleate to be encapsulated can be added to the pretreated cyclohexane alone or in conjunction with another pharmaceutical material, such as pseudoephedrine hydrochloride, with which it is commonly administered in a combined dosage form. |
| Chlorpheniramine maleate should be heated with the cyclohexane as a first step to saturate the cyclohexane and the other ingredients can be added following standard microencapsulating procedure at a temperature sufficiently high to dissolve the ethylcellulose and the polyethylene. |
| NTP: Abstract for TR-317 - Chlorpheniramine Maleate (898 words) |
| Doses originally selected for male mice in the 2-year study were 0, 100, or 200 mg/kg; however, because of poor survival, that study was stopped and a new study was started at doses of 0, 25, or 50 mg/kg. |
| Chlorpheniramine maleate was not mutagenic to Salmonella strains TA98, TA100, TA1535, or T1537 in the presence or absence of S9 metabolic activation systems prepared from the liver of Aroclor 1254-treated male Sprague-Dawley rats or male Syrian hamsters. |
| Chlorpheniramine maleate had a proliferative effect in the thyroid gland of female mice, as shown by the increased incidences of follicular cell cysts and hyperplasia in both low dose and high dose groups. |
