2. Description of the Related Art In recent years, as the aging society progresses, preparations in a form that is easy for the elderly to take have been desired, and several dosage forms have already been proposed. Are ordinary tablets and capsules, which are not always easy for the elderly to take. In addition, these usual preparations are often difficult to take even for patients with low swallowing ability such as children. In addition, small tablets and granules are difficult to handle and are not satisfactory for elderly or pediatric patients. For the purpose of solving such problems, there is an orally disintegrating tablet as one of the dosage forms that have been already proposed, but it has the property of rapidly disintegrating in the mouth without water or with a small amount of water, and depending on the manufacturing method. Is considered to be highly practical because it allows the use of normal formulation systems.

As a method for preparing an orally disintegrating tablet with general equipment, there is JP-A-9-71523. Orally disintegrating tablets have been proposed in which a mixture of low-substituted hydroxypropylcellulose as a drug and a disintegrant, microcrystalline cellulose as an excipient and a lubricant is compressed at a low pressure, but a cellulose-based additive is used. Since it is frequently used, it has a disadvantage that the tablet is practically inferior in disintegration, taste and texture.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION "Loose bulk density" in the present invention
The term “bulk density” refers to bulk density in a loosely packed state, with a diameter of
5.03 cm (100 mL) cylindrical container (Material:
Transfer the sample to JIS 22 mesh (710μ)
m) through the sieve of m), feed uniformly from above 23cm,
It is measured by scraping the top surface and weighing. On the other hand, the “solid bulk density” refers to the bulk density in the case where tapping is added to the material to make it densely packed. Here, tapping refers to an operation in which a container filled with a sample is repeatedly dropped from a certain height to give a light impact to the bottom portion to tightly fill the sample. In practice, when measuring the loose bulk density, the top surface was cut off and weighed, and then a cap was placed on this container (supplied with a powder tester manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Corporation).
And add the powder to the upper edge, tap height 1.8cm
Is performed 180 times. After completion, the cap is removed and the powder is ground and weighed on the upper surface of the container, and the bulk density in this state is hardened to obtain the bulk density. The “compression degree” is calculated from the following equation using the above-mentioned solid bulk density and loose bulk density. Compressibility = {(solid bulk density-loose bulk density) / solid bulk density} × 100 These operations can be measured by using, for example, a powder tester (PT-D) manufactured by Hosokawa Micron Corporation.

Hydroxypropylcellulose having a loose bulk density of 0.35 g / mL or more and a hardened bulk density of 0.60 g / mL or more can be produced by the following method. That is, the pulp is immersed in an alkali solution to form alkali cellulose, which is reacted with a hydroxypropylating agent such as propylene oxide. In the subsequent step, the product is put into water or water adjusted to be alkaline, completely dissolved, turned into a nearly uniformly transparent slurry, and then neutralized with hydrochloric acid to precipitate a low-substituted hydroxypropyl. After collecting the cellulose, it is washed with water, dried and pulverized. The term "completely dissolved state" as used herein means a state in which the product almost completely loses its shape. That is,
In addition to being completely transparent, this includes the degree of opaque slurry and the degree to which 5 to 10 small particles remain in 3 liters of slurry. The state after dissolution is a slurry of high viscosity, and requires a kneader or other kneading machine with strong stirring power. Thereafter, the mixture is neutralized with an acid such as hydrochloric acid to precipitate hydroxypropylcellulose having a low degree of substitution, which is collected, washed, dried and pulverized to obtain a product.

The hardness and disintegration time of the orally disintegrating tablets of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 5 were measured, and the results are shown in Table 1. The hardness of the orally disintegrating tablet was measured using a tablet hardness tester (Elveca hardness tester), and the disintegration time was measured using a Japanese Pharmacopoeia disintegration tester (test solution: water, 37 ° C.), n = 6.
(N indicates the number of samples). Oral disintegration time is tested by two healthy adult males and females, and without chewing the tablet in the oral cavity, the time it takes for the tablet to completely dissolve or disintegrate while lightly in the mouth is measured, and the average value Was calculated. Also,
The feeling of taking at this time was also evaluated. The evaluation was made in three stages: good (○), normal (△), and poor (x). From the results shown in Table 1, in the relationship between the hardness and the disintegration time, it was found that the solid preparation of the present invention had a fast disintegration time and a good feeling in taking in the oral cavity.
