Powder preparation and characterization: Sumatriptan-Na2FDKP powder was prepared as described in Example 9 above, except that the sumatriptan succinate was purchase from LGM Pharma (Boca Raton, Fla.) and L-leucine was added to study whether the aerodynamic performance of the resulting spray-dried powder formed would be improved. Three feed solutions were prepared at 4.5% total solids concentration for a 5 g scale. The feed solutions were prepared by adding FDKP disodium salt, sumatriptan succinate, and L-leucine (0-20 wt %) to de-ionized water with mixing. The solutions were titrated with dilute aqueous ammonia to pH 6.00. The resulting clear feed solutions were vacuum filtered through a 0.2 μm PES filter membrane and spray dried as described in Example 9, however, the drying gas flow was set at 25 kg/hr, the atomization flow was about 4 kg/hr and the atomization pressure was set at 4 bar. The sumatriptan succinate concentration (dry basis) in each solution was 56% to obtain a 40% sumatriptan target load. The powders were analyzed by HPLC, cascade impaction, Karl Fischer titration, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and tap and bulk density. The results of these studies are shown in Table 9 and FIG. 22.
