Tetramethylpyrazine (TMP), isolated from the rhizome of the traditional Chinese medicinal plant Chuanxiong (Ligusticum wallichii Franchat) shows therapeutic efficacy against osteoarthritis. After intra-articular injection, the retention time of TMP in the joint cavity is short, which limits its treatment effect. To avoid this problem, the present study explored the preparation of a TMP nanosuspension (TMP-NS) based on hydrophobic ion pairing. TMP-NS showed a particle size of approximately 588 nm and, after intra-articular injection in rats, it had longer retention in the articular cavity, higher TMP concentrations in joints, and greater anti-osteoarthritic efficacy than TMP solution. TMP-NS didn’t cause significant inflammation at the joint. These results suggest that TMP-NS may strengthen and prolong the therapeutic efficacy of TMP against osteoarthritis without systemic toxicity.
