COMPOSITION COMPRISING ROTIGOTINE, ITS USE AND TRANSDERMAL PATCH COMPRISING THE COMPOSITION

摘要

The present invention relates to a composition containing Rotigotine and the use thereof in the manufacture of a Rotigotine-containing transdermal patch, wherein said composition is based on a matrix mixture system formed from a combination of an acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive with a silicone pressure-sensitive adhesive, and polyvinylpyrrolidone which are present in a particular weight ratio, wherein (1) the acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive is present in an amount of about 1-25% by weight in the matrix mixture system, (2) the silicone pressure-sensitive adhesive is present in an amount of about 65-98% by weight in the matrix mixture system, and (3) the polyvinylpyrrolidone is present in an amount of about 1-10% by weight in the matrix mixture system, and comprises 1-40% of Rotigotine on the basis of the total weight of the composition. The present invention further relates to an improved transdermal patch containing Rotigotine comprising said composition. Said patch has improved properties in the solubility, release and initial penetration level of Rotigotine.
