However, its usefulness as a preparation is becoming clear.
 前記口腔内崩壊錠の製造方法として、湿製錠や打錠後に加湿乾燥を行うなど様々な方法が提案されている。しかしながら、前記湿製錠は、硬度が低いために、PTP包装(錠剤やカプセルなどを押し出すタイプの包装)で提供できないという問題、一包化ができないという問題、特殊な製造装置が必要となり製造が煩雑になるという問題がある。 As a method for producing the orally disintegrating tablet, various methods have been proposed such as wet tableting and humidification drying after tableting. However, since the wet tablets have low hardness, they cannot be provided in PTP packaging (packaging for extruding tablets or capsules), cannot be packaged, and require special manufacturing equipment. There is a problem that it becomes complicated.
 また、前記口腔内崩壊錠用賦形剤を造粒する際の結合液として、ヒドロキシプロピルセルロースを用いる方法が知られているが、得られる錠剤の口腔内崩壊性が遅くなるという問題がある。そこで、前記口腔内崩壊錠として望ましい口腔内崩壊性を得るために、前記結合液として崩壊剤水分散液を用いて口腔内崩壊錠用賦形剤を造粒する方法が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。しかしながら、この方法で得られたOD錠は、吸湿性が高く、錠剤硬度が低下し、錠剤の外観が変化するという問題がある。 In addition, a method using hydroxypropyl cellulose as a binding solution for granulating the above-mentioned excipient for orally disintegrating tablets is known, but there is a problem that the orally disintegrating property of the obtained tablet is slow. Thus, in order to obtain desirable orally disintegrating properties as the orally disintegrating tablet, a method of granulating an orally disintegrating tablet excipient using an aqueous disintegrant dispersion as the binding liquid has been proposed (for example, , See Patent Document 1). However, the OD tablet obtained by this method has a problem of high hygroscopicity, reduced tablet hardness, and changes in the appearance of the tablet.
 したがって、錠剤として必要とされる、錠剤成形性、錠剤保存性、摩損性、薬物含量均一性等の性能を維持しつつ、長期間保存しても硬度及び口腔内崩壊の安定性に優れる口腔内崩壊錠を提供できる技術が強く求められているのが現状である。 Therefore, while maintaining the properties required for tablets, such as tablet formability, tablet storage, wear resistance, and drug content uniformity, the oral cavity is excellent in hardness and stability of oral disintegration even when stored for a long period of time. Currently, there is a strong demand for technology that can provide disintegrating tablets.

It was suggested that coating with sugar alcohol (mannitol) increased the binding force between the saccharide and the disintegrant, resulting in excellent moldability.
From FIG. 3E to FIG. 3F, it was found that placebo tablets using sugar alcohol (mannitol) as a binding solution stably have a certain hardness even in a high humidity environment. It was also found that the tablet surface was not uneven as compared with the placebo tablets using other binding solutions, and the tablet surface change due to moisture absorption was low. From these results, it was found that the placebo tablet using sugar alcohol (mannitol) as the binding solution is excellent in hardness stability. Furthermore, FIG. 3F shows that OD placebo tablet 4 using crospovidone and corn starch as disintegrants can prevent a decrease in hardness during moisture absorption more than OD placebo tablet 3 using crospovidone alone. It was.
