Abstract

The use of certain salts and aminoacids as stabilizer of the antibiotic Fosfomycin Tromethamol and pharmaceutical compositions containing them, is described.

Claims (48)

1. A process for stabilizing a Fosfomycin Tromethamol composition, the process comprising:

combining Fosfomycin Tromethamol with at least one of the following substances in an amount effective to stabilize the Fosfomycin Tromethamol:

a tribasic sodium citrate;

a tribasic potassium citrate;

a monoacidic sodium citrate;

a monoacidic potassium citrate;

a tribasic sodium phosphate;

a tribasic potassium phosphate;

a monoacidic sodium phosphate;

a monoacidic potassium phosphate;

a sodium carbonate;

a potassium carbonate;

a sodium bicarbonate;

a potassium bicarbonate;

a sodium tartrate;

a potassium tartrate;

an arginine; and

a lysine.

2. The process of claim 1 , wherein the stabilizing substance is one or more of: a tribasic sodium citrate, a sodium carbonate, a potassium carbonate, a sodium bicarbonate, a potassium bicarbonate, and an arginine.

3. The process of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is in a range between 10% and 100%.

4. The process of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is in a range between 30% and 70%.

5. The process of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is at least 50%.

6. The process of claim 1 , wherein the Fosfomycin Tromethamol and the stabilizing agent are produced as a hydrosoluble granulate.

7. The process of claim 1 , wherein the Fosfomycin Tromethamol is present in the composition in an amount of approximately 5.6 g.

8. The process of claim 1 , further comprising adding an excipient agent.

9. A pharmaceutical composition comprising Fosfomycin Tromethamol and at least one substance, in an amount effective for stabilizing, selected from the group consisting of:

a tribasic sodium citrate;

a tribasic potassium citrate;

a monoacidic sodium citrate;

a monoacidic potassium citrate;

a tribasic sodium phosphate;

a tribasic potassium phosphate;

a monoacidic sodium phosphate;

a monoacidic potassium phosphate;

a sodium carbonate;

a potassium carbonate;

a sodium bicarbonate;

a potassium bicarbonate;

a sodium tartrate;

a potassium tartrate;

an arginine; and

a lysine.

10. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 9 , wherein the stabilizing substance is one or more of: a tribasic sodium citrate, a sodium carbonate, a potassium carbonate, a sodium bicarbonate, a potassium bicarbonate, and an arginine.

11. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 9 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is in a range between 10% and 100%.

12. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is in a range between 30% and 70%.

13. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein a molar ratio of the substance with respect to Fosfomycin Tromethamol is at least 50%.

14. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , wherein the Fosfomycin Tromethamol is present in an amount of approximately 5.6 g.

15. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 1 , which is produced as a hydrosoluble granulate.
