Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to co-crystals of tramadol and co-crystal formers selected from NSAIDs/coxibs, processes for preparation of the same and their uses as medicaments or in pharmaceutical formulations, more particularly for the treatment of pain.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method of treatment of severe to moderate pain comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a co-crystal comprising (rac)-tramadol.HCl and celecoxib in a molecular ratio of 1:1, characterized in that it shows a Powder X-Ray Diffraction pattern with peaks [2θ] at 14.1, 16.8, 19.0 and 22.7[°], with the 2θ values being obtained using copper radiation (CuKα1 1.54060 Å). 2. The method of treatment of severe to moderate pain of claim 1 , characterized in that the co-crystal shows additional peaks [2θ] at 7.1, 19.9 and 20.5[°]. 3. The method of treatment of severe to moderate pain of claim 2 , characterized in that the co-crystal shows additional peaks [2θ] at 13.6, 13.9, 17.5, 18.0, 19.5, 21.2, 21.3, 21.8, 22.6, 23.6, 24.1, 24.4 and 26.1[°]. 4. A method of treatment of mild pain comprising administering to a patient in need thereof an effective amount of a co-crystal comprising (rac)-tramadol.HCl and celecoxib in a molecular ratio of 1:1, characterized in that it shows a Powder X-Ray Diffraction pattern with peaks [2θ] at 14.1, 16.8, 19.0 and 22.7[°], with the 2θ values being obtained using copper radiation (CuKα1 1.54060 Å). 5. The method of treatment of mild pain of claim 4 , characterized in that the co-crystal shows additional peaks [2θ] at 7.1, 19.9 and 20.5[°]. 6. The method of treatment of mild pain of claim 5 , characterized in that the co-crystal shows additional peaks [2θ] at 13.6, 13.9, 17.5, 18.0, 19.5, 21.2, 21.3, 21.8, 22.6, 23.6, 24.1, 24.4 and 26.1[°].
