Manufacturing process of Fluticasone Propionate

Before starting the process, equipment cleanliness and material availability are ensured.

Charge Acetone is into the Glass line reactor (GLR), and the precursor with a propionylating agent is added under stirring. Heat the reaction mass up to  50–55°C and maintain the reaction mass at 50–55°C for 240–360 minutes.

Take the in-process sample from reactor and send the In-process sample to Quality control (QC) for reaction monitoring by HPLC. After in-process result complies cool the reaction mass up to 20–25°C, and an anti-solvent like water is added to initiate crystallization.

The crystallized product is filtered through centrifugation operation and washed with chilled water to remove impurities. The product is dried in a vacuum dryer at 40–45°C for 480–600 minutes. After drying, it is milled and sieved to a uniform particle size.

Pack Fluticasone Propionate in a clear poly bag and twist the mouth of the bag. Secure it with a PVC strip. Place this bag inside another poly bag, twist its mouth, and secure it with a PVC strip. Insert these bags into a triple-laminated aluminum bag and seal it properly. Finally, place the sealed aluminum bag in an HDPE container. Store Fluticasone Propionate in a tightly closed, light-resistant container at a temperature of 20°C to 25°C.

Applications of Fluticasone Propionate

Therapeutic Uses
Management of Asthma
Fluticasone propionate is a corticosteroid commonly prescribed to manage asthma. It helps reduce inflammation and swelling in the airways, making breathing easier and preventing asthma attacks.
Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis
Fluticasone propionate is effective in treating allergic rhinitis (hay fever). It helps alleviate symptoms such as nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose by reducing inflammation in the nasal passages.
Management of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)
Fluticasone propionate is used in combination with other bronchodilators to manage COPD. It reduces airway inflammation, improving lung function and reducing exacerbations in patients with chronic bronchitis or emphysema.

Industrial Uses
Pharmaceutical Formulations
Fluticasone propionate is formulated into inhalers, nasal sprays, and nebulizers for respiratory conditions like asthma and allergic rhinitis. It is also available in combination products with long-acting beta-agonists (LABAs) to treat COPD and asthma.
R&D and Formulation Development
Fluticasone propionate is studied for the development of new and improved delivery systems, such as dry powder inhalers (DPIs) and metered-dose inhalers (MDIs), to enhance drug delivery to the lungs. Research also focuses on developing fixed-dose combination products for more efficient management of asthma and COPD.
