InVitro Evaluation of Optimal Inhalation Flow Patterns for Commercial Dry Powder Inhalers and Pressurized Metered Dose Inhalers With Human Inhalation Flow Pattern Simulator
چکیده انگلیسی
This study aimed at developing a novel analytical method to identify optimal inhalation flow patterns for commercial dry powder inhalers (DPIs) and pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs). As typical commercial DPI and pMDI, Pulmicort® Turbuhaler®, and Sultanol® Inhaler were evaluated by an in vitro inhalation performance testing system with a flow pattern simulator. An 8-stage Andersen cascade impactor (ACI) or twin stage liquid impinger (TSLI) was applied to determine the inhalation performance. The peak flow rate (PFR) of the inhalation flow pattern was set from 15 to 80 L/min in reference to our previous study. From TSLI test results, a higher PFR improved the inhalation performance of the DPI, while the performance of the pMDI was less affected by the PFR. Conversely, from ACI test results, the pMDI performance decreased with a higher PFR, while the DPI followed a similar pattern as in the TSLI test results, because ACI is a finer aerodynamic classification apparatus than TSLI. These results suggested that our in vitro system using a human inhalation flow pattern simulator successfully detected different optimal inhalation patterns between DPI and pMDI. That is, the higher PFR is better for Pulmicort® Turbuhaler® (DPI). Conversely, lower PFR is desirable for Sultanol® Inhaler (pMDI).
