`Applications in Pharmaceutical Formulation or
`Technology
`Boric acid is used as an antimicrobial preservative” in eye drops,
`cosmetic products, ointments, and topical creams.It is also used as
`an antimicrobial preservative in foods.
`Boric acid and borate have good buffering capacity and are used
`to control pH; they have been used for this purpose in external
`preparations such as eye drops.)
`Boric acid has also been used therapeutically in the form of
`suppositories to treat yeast infections.'**)In dilute concentrationsit
`is used as a mild antiseptic, with weak bacteriostatic and fungistatic
`properties, although it has generally been superseded by more
`effective and less toxic disinfectants.'°) See Section 14.

`
`Incompatibilities
`12
`Boric acid is incompatible with water, strong bases and alkali
`metals. It reacts violently with potassium and acid anhydrides. It
`also forms a complex with glycerin, which is a stronger acid than
`boric acid.
`
`13 Method of Manufacture
`Boric acid occurs naturally as the mineral sassolite. However, the
`majority of boric acid is produced by reacting inorganic borates
`with sulfuric acid in an aqueous medium. Sodium borate and
`partially refined calcium borate (colemanite) are the principal raw
`materials. When boric acid is made from colemanite,
`the fine-
`groundoreis vigorously stirred with motherliquor and sulfuric acid
`at about 90°C. The by-product calcium sulfate is removed by
`filtration, and the boric acid is crystallized by cooling thefiltrate.
`
`Boric Acid

`
`and gargles, It has also been used in US- and Japanese-approved
`intravenous products. Solutions of boric acid were formerly used to
`wash out body cavities, and as applications to wounds and ulcers,
`althoughtheuse of boric acid for these purposes is now regarded as
`inadvisable owing to the possibility of absorption." Boric acid is
`not used internally owingto its toxicity. It is poisonous by ingestion
`and moderately toxic by skin contact. Experimentally it has proved
`to be toxic by inhalation and subcutaneousroutes, and moderately
`toxic by intraperitoneal and intravenousroutes.
`Boric acid is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and from
`damaged skin, wounds, and mucous membranes,although it does
`not readily permeateintact skin. The main symptomsof boric acid
`poisoning are abdominal pain, diarrhea, erythematous
`rash
`involving both skin and mucous membrane, and vomiting. These
`symptoms may be followed by desquamation, and stimulation or
`depression of the central nervous system. Convulsions, hyper-
`pyrexia, and renal tubular damage have been known to occur!”
`Death has occurred from ingestion of less than 5g in young
`children, and of 5-20g in adults. Fatalities have occurred most
`frequently in young children after the accidental
`ingestion of
`solutionsof boric acid, or after the application of boric acid powder
`to abraded skin.
`The permissible exposure limit (PEL) of boric acid is 15 mg/m
`total dust, and 5 mg/m? respirable fraction for nuisance dusts.)

`15 Handling Precautions
`Observe normal precautions appropriate to the circumstances and
`quantity of material handled. Boric acidis irritating to the skin and
`is potentially toxic by inhalation. Gloves, eye protection, protective
`clothing, and a respirator are recommended.

`formulations’
`a-Cyclodextrin is used mainly in parenteral
`However, as it has the smallest cavity of the cyclodextrins it can
`form inclusion complexes with only relatively few, small-sized
`molecules. In contrast, y-cyclodextrin has the largest cavity and can
`be used to form inclusion complexes with large molecules; it has low
`toxicity and enhanced watersolubility.
`In oral tablet formulations, B-cyclodextrin may be used in both
`wet-granulation and direct-compression processes. The physical
`properties of B-cyclodextrin vary depending on the manufacturer.
`However, B-cyclodextrin tends to possess poor flow properties and.
`requires a lubricant, such as 0.1% w/w magnesium stearate, whenit
`is directly compressed.”
`In parenteral formulations, cyclodextrins have been used to
`produce stable and soluble preparations of drugs that would
`otherwise have been formulated using a nonaqueoussolvent.
`In eye drop formulations, cyclodextrins form water-soluble
`complexes with lipophilic drugs such as corticosteroids. They have
`been shownto increase the watersolubility of the drug; to enhance
`drug absorption into the eye; to improve aqueousstability; and to
`reducelocalirritation.'
`Cyclodextrins have also been used in the formulation of
`solutions,(45) suppositories,'*”) and cosmetics.{®-7)

`with a rigid structure and a centralcavity, the size of which varies
`according to the. cyclodextrin type; see Section 8. The internal
`surface of the cavity is hydrophobic and the outside of the torus is
`hydrophilic; this is due to the arrangement of hydroxyl groups
`within the molecule. This arrangement permits the cyclodextrin to
`accommodate a guest molecule within the cavity, forming an
`inclusion complex.
`Cyclodextrins may be used to form inclusion complexes with a
`variety of drug molecules, resulting primarily in improvements to
`dissolution and bioavailability owing to enhanced solubility and
`improved chemical and physical stability; see Section 18.
`Cyclodextrin inclusion complexes have also been used to mask
`the unpleasant taste of active materials and to convert a liquid
`substanceinto a solid material.
`B-Cyclodextrin is
`the most commonly used cyclodextrin,
`although it
`is the least soluble; see Section 10. It
`is the least
`€xpensive cyclodextrin; is commercially available from a number of
`Sources; andis able to form inclusion complexes with a number of
`Molecules of pharmaceutical interest. However, B-cyclodextrin is
`nephrotoxic and should not be used in parenteral formulations; see
`Section 14. B-Cyclodextrin is primarily used in tablet and capsule
`Ormulations.
`
`Description
`8
`Cyclodextrins are cyclic oligosaccharides containing at least six D-
`(+)-glucopyranose units attached by «(1-+4) glucoside bonds. The
`three natural cyclodextrins, a, B, and , differ in their ring size and
`solubility. They contain 6, 7, or 8 glucose units, respectively.
`Cyclodextrins occur as white, practically odorless, fine crystal-
`line powders, having a slightly sweet
`taste. Some cyclodextrin
`derivatives occur as amorphous powders.

`
`11. Stability and Storage Conditions
`6-Cyclodextrin and other cyclodextrins are stable in thesolid state if
`protected from high humidity.
`Cyclodextrins should be stored in a tightly sealed container, in a
`cool, dry place.
`
`Incompatibilities
`12
`The activity of some antimicrobial preservatives in aqueoussolution
`can be reduced in the presence of hydroxypropyl-B- cyclodex-
`«(10-12
`trin.
`
`13. Method of Manufacture
`Cyclodextrins are manufactured by the enzymatic degradation of
`starch using specialized bacteria. For example, B-cyclodextrin is
`produced by the action of the enzyme cyclodextrin glucosyltrans-
`ferase upon starch or a starch hydrolysate. An organic solvent is
`used to direct the reaction that produces B-cyclodextrin, and to
`prevent
`the growth of microorganisms during the enzymatic
`reaction. The insoluble complex of B-cyclodextrin and organic
`solvent is separated from the noncyclic starch, and the organic
`solvent is removed in vacuo so that less than 1 ppm of solvent
`remains in the B-cyclodextrin. The B-cyclodextrin is then carbon
`treated and crystallized from water, dried, and collected.
`
`14 Safety
`Cyclodextrinsare starch derivatives and are mainly usedin oral and
`parenteral pharmaceutical formulations. They are also used in
`topical and ophthalmic formulations.°)
`Cyclodextrins are also used in cosmetics and food products, and
`are generally regarded as essentially nontoxic and nonirritant
`materials. However, when administered parenterally, B-cyclodextrin
`is not metabolized but accumulates in the kidneys as insoluble
`cholesterol complexes, resulting in severe nephrotoxicity.1?
`Cyclodextrin administeredorally is metabolized by microflora in
`the colon, forming the metabolites maltodextrin, maltosk, and
`glucose;
`these are themselves further metabolized before being
`finally excreted as carbon dioxide and water. Although a study
`published in 1957 suggested that orally administered cyclodextrins
`were highly toxic,"'*) more recent animaltoxicity studies in rats and
`dogs have shownthis notto be the case, and cyclodextrins are now
`approved for use in food products and orally administered
`pharmaceuticals in a- number of countries.
`_ Cyclodextrins are notirritant to the skin and eyes, or upon
`inhalation. There is also no evidence to suggest that cyclodextrins
`are mutagenic or teratogenic.

`15 Handling Precautions
`Observe normal precautions appropriate to the circumstances and
`quantity of material handled. Cyclodextrins are fine organic
`powders and should be handled in a well-ventilated environment.
`Efforts should be madeto limit the generation of dust, which can be
`explosive.

`In addition to their use in pharmaceutical formulations, cyclodex-
`trins have also been investigated for use in various industrial
`applications. Analytically, cyclodextrin polymers are used in
`chromatographic separations, particularly of chiral materials,
`B-Cyclodextrin derivatives are more water-soluble than f-
`cyclodextrin, and studies have shown that
`they have greater
`solubilizing action with some drugs such as ibuproxam, a poorly
`water-soluble anti-inflammatory agent.'1®?”)
