Definitions
- the present invention relates to a synergistic liquid vaginal spray composition. More particularly, the present invention relates to a synergistic vaginal spray composition containing lactic acid and at least one antifungal agent for the treatment of vaginal fungal infections such as vulvovaginal candidiasisor "yeast" infection bacterial vaginosis. Trichomoniasis, Chlamydia vaginitis. Gonococcal vaginitis. Viral vaginitis. Noninfectious vaginitis. The present invention also relates to process for preparation of the said composition.
- the normal ecosystem of the vagina involves many different organisms that are involved in a system of checks and balances. No other concept in vaginal health is as important as the state of the ecosystem of the vagina.
- the flora that colonizes the vagina takes place in the birth canal during delivery, and the flora that is established in the newborn girl must therefore consist -of the same strains as in the mother.
- the vaginal environment of a newborn changes during the first month, then again at prepuberty, puberty, during the reproductive years and post-menopausally. Additionally, the cyclic hormonal changes of the menstrual cycle also influence the vaginal ecosystem. It is a variable state throughout a woman's lifetime, but nothing is more key to this ecosystem than lactobacil!us.
- the range of bacterial types isolated is immense, including Staphylococcus species, Garnerella vaginalis. Streptococcus species, Bacteriodes species, Lactobacillus species, Mobiluncus, Candida species, (most commonly Candida albicans), and more.
- the predominant organisms isolated from the normal vagina are members of the Lactobacillus genus.
- One species of bacteria inhibits another and an elegant combination of pH, vaginal immunity, hormonal activity and the community of organisms that occupy the vagina interact in a manner in which bacterial overgrowth is controlled, unless the well- established mechanism of balance is thrown off by one factor or another.
- a flora that inhabits vaginal surface can be categorized as "resident" flora and "transient” flora.
- “Resident” flora generally refers to microflora which generally “colonizes” a particular tissue surface. In case of vagina the flora mainly comprises Lactobacilli genus. "Transient” flora generally refers to the flora which may inhabit a tissue surface, may be for days to months, but never more than that. The transient flora is mainly comprises pathogenic organism, which are, in healthy people, kept under check by the resident flora. Resident flora, in effect, acts as a first line of defense against variety of pathogens and pathologies.
- Lactobacillus helps in maintaining the environment of vagina. Lactic acid is produced by the metabolism of lactobacillus and although there may be other ways in which the vagina maintains its normal acidic environment, the role of lactobacilli seems evident. Lactobacilli thrive at an acidic pH of 3.5-4.5 and these values are indeed found in the normal vagina throughout the menstrual cycle.
- Lactobacilli have also been shown to interfere with how pathogenic bacteria adhere and colonize the cells of the vagina. Lactobacilli also act directly as antibacterials and may function as an immune stimulant locally in controlling microbial levels in the vagina.
- Antifungal drugs/agents are medication used to treat fungal infections such as athlete's foot, ringworm, candidiasis (thrush), serious systemic infections such as cryptococcal meningitis, and others. Such drugs are usually obtained on doctor's prescription or purchased over-the-counter.
- Antifungals work by exploiting differences between mammalian and fungal cells to kill the fungal organism without dangerous effects on the host. Unlike bacteria, both fungi and humans are eukaryotes. Thus fungal and human cells are similar at the molecular level. This makes it more difficult to find or design drugs that target ffhgi without affecting human cells. Consequently, many antifungal drugs cause side-effe!ets. Some of these side-effects can be life-threatening if the drugs are not used properly.
- the imidazole and triazole drugs are synthetic antifungal drugs that inhibit the enzyme cytochrome P450 14a-demethylase. This enzyme converts lanosterol to ergosterol, and is required in fungal cell membrane synthesis. These drugs also block steroid3 ⁇ 4synthesis in humans.
- lactic acid and an antifungal agent inhibits proliferation of pathogenic organisms, particularly fungi, by making the environment unfavorable for the pathogens to thrive, a combined, synergistic use may also be envisaged.
- US Publication No. 20070286812 discloses a nasal formulation comprising pharmaceutical antifungal agents along with and natural antifungal agents (Lactobacillus species) in a solid, liquid or aerosol form.
- US Patent No. 7125708 relates to a composition comprising Lactobacillus strain NCIMB 41 1 14 and an antifungal agent for the treatment of yeast infection.
- Indian Patent Application No. 675/KOL/2004 (EPl 506781 ) disclosed a vaginal care composition comprising viable Lactobacillus and/or Bifidobacterium microorganisms; non-viable Saccharomyces cultures; vitamin A/retinol, and zinc.
- European Patent No. 1764100 filed by Johnson & Johnson Consumer Companies, Inc. discloses a buffered composition for lowering vaginal pH.
- the said Patent suggests that lactic acid and an antifungal agent for lowering and maintaining pH of vaginal surface in range of 3 to 4.5.
- the invention is directed to reducing self- perceived vaginal odor by maintaining the pH in normal range.
- composition in the said Patent is in the form of suspensions, emulsions, clear and opaque gels, semisolid systems, including ointments, pastes, oil-in-water (o/w) creams, semisolid emulsions with solid internal phases, semisolid emulsions with fluid internal phases, vaginal suppositories, insertable tablets, soft or hard gelatin capsules and the like.
- US Publication No. 2010173965 relates to use of an azole compound with an organic acid with a view to enhance absorption.
- suppositories have attained some success, they have some disadvantages.
- Most of the current commercial vaginal suppositories either melt or dissolve in the vaginal tract into an oily or aqueous liquid. This resulting liquid in turn tends to leak out or is expelled out of the vaginal cavity resulting either in soiled clothing and/or inferior efficacy.
- the applicator is very long, e.g. suppository (approx. 1 1 cm) and gel (approx. 12 cm) which produces more risk and fear to the patients.
- the present invention provides a synergistic combination of lactic acid and at least one antifungal agent in liquid vaginal spray dosage form for treatment of vaginal fungal infection such as vulvovaginal candidiasis or "yeast” infection bacterial vaginosis, Trichomoniasis, Chlamydia vaginitis, Gonococcal vaginitis, Viral vaginitis, Non-infectious vaginitis.
- vaginal fungal infection such as vulvovaginal candidiasis or "yeast” infection bacterial vaginosis, Trichomoniasis, Chlamydia vaginitis, Gonococcal vaginitis, Viral vaginitis, Non-infectious vaginitis.
- composition of the present invention afford a better patient compliance, better bioavailability, when compared to painful intramuscular injections, suppositories such as vaginal capsules or tablets and messy application of gel and creams, as the present formulation is in solution form that can administered by spraying method.
- the antifungal drugs of the present invention give the local as well as systemic effect via vaginal route whereas lactic acid maintains the desired vaginal pH levels. Maintenance of vaginal pH helps to cover the loss of lactic acid due to infection, which is otherwise naturally produced by lactobacilli into vagina.
- the present invention provides a process for preparing the said liquid vaginal spray composition.
- the invention provides a synergistic liquid vaginal spray dosage form to provide local as well as systemic effect, comprising therapeutically effective amount of at least one antifungal agent along with lactic acid, useful for the treatment of vaginal fungal infections like vulvovaginal.
- the invention provides novel mode of delivery for treatment of vaginal fungal infections like Candidiasis or "yeast” infection Bacterial Vaginosis, Trichomoniasis, Chlamydia vaginitis, Gonococcal vaginitis, Viral vaginitis, Noninfectious vaginitis which provides better patient compliance as compare to painful intramuscular injections, as it is in solution form.
