Description

本発明は、特定のプロテオグリカンを含有する、関節症の症状を予防、軽減若しくは治療するための食品組成物又は経口医薬組成物に関する。   The present invention relates to a food composition or an oral pharmaceutical composition containing a specific proteoglycan for preventing, reducing or treating symptoms of arthropathy.

関節疾患の中でも最も患者数の多い疾患が変形性関節症である。当該疾患では加齢が軟骨変性の原因の一つと考えられており、高齢化社会の到来により今後更に患者数が増えることが懸念されている。その治療としては、軟骨変性や軟骨下骨破壊に伴う痛みを除去する目的で、鎮痛消炎剤の貼付やヒアルロン酸の注入が行われているが、いずれも十分な効果が挙げられているとは言えない。
また近年では、プロテオグリカンを関節内注入する治療も行われている(特許文献1)。
Among joint diseases, osteoarthritis is the most common disease. In this disease, aging is considered to be one of the causes of cartilage degeneration, and there is a concern that the number of patients will increase further in the future due to the arrival of an aging society. For the treatment, analgesic anti-inflammatory agents and hyaluronic acid injections have been performed for the purpose of removing pain associated with cartilage degeneration and subchondral bone destruction, but all have sufficient effects. I can not say.
Moreover, in recent years, a treatment in which proteoglycan is injected into the joint is also performed (Patent Document 1).

プロテオグリカンは、1本のコアタンパク質に数本から数十本の直鎖状の糖鎖が共有結合している、非常に複雑かつ多種の構造を有する糖タンパク質の総称であり、軟骨組織に存在するプロテオグリカンに含まれる糖鎖の代表的なものがコンドロイチン硫酸である。   Proteoglycan is a general term for glycoproteins with very complex and various structures in which several to several tens of linear sugar chains are covalently bonded to one core protein, and is present in cartilage tissue. A typical sugar chain contained in proteoglycan is chondroitin sulfate.

コンドロイチン硫酸は、保湿性、生体適合性或いは潤滑性に優れる等の高い有用性から産業上注目されている成分であり、天然資源からの効果的な回収、製造法が種々開発されている。   Chondroitin sulfate is a component that has attracted industry attention due to its high usefulness such as moisture retention, biocompatibility, and lubricity, and various effective recovery and production methods from natural resources have been developed.

軟骨組織においては、コンドロイチン硫酸はそれ自体単独では存在せず、タンパク質と共有結合を介して形成された複合体すなわちプロテオグリカンの形で存在している。しかし、プロテオグリカンをそのまま抽出することは糖タンパク質複合体という複雑な構造故に困難な場合が多く、そのためプロテオグリカンのコアタンパク質部分を徹底的に分解してコンドロイチン硫酸のみを抽出しようという方法が主に採用されてきた。この方法の製造物はコンドロイチン硫酸等のムコ多糖類である。   In cartilage tissue, chondroitin sulfate does not exist by itself, but exists in the form of a complex formed through covalent bonding with a protein, ie, proteoglycan. However, it is often difficult to extract proteoglycan as it is because of the complex structure of glycoprotein complex. Therefore, the method of extracting only chondroitin sulfate by thoroughly degrading the core protein part of proteoglycan is mainly adopted. I came. The product of this method is a mucopolysaccharide such as chondroitin sulfate.

一方、コンドロイチン硫酸としてではなく、プロテオグリカンそのままを回収、製造し利用する試みもなされている。特に、魚類、鳥類及び哺乳類の軟骨組織には、コンドロイチン硫酸を主要糖鎖とするプロテオグリカンが含まれている一方、これらの軟骨組織は通常廃棄処分となっていたことから、廃棄物の有効利用を兼ねた軟骨組織からのプロテオグリカンの製造法が幾つか提唱されている。   On the other hand, attempts have been made to collect, produce and use proteoglycan as it is, not as chondroitin sulfate. In particular, the cartilage tissue of fish, birds and mammals contains proteoglycans containing chondroitin sulfate as the main sugar chain. Several methods for producing proteoglycan from cartilage tissue which have also been proposed have been proposed.

例えば、軟骨組織からのプロテオグリカンの製造法として、特許文献2には、プロテオグリカンを含有する軟骨組織等の生物学的試料を界面活性剤の水溶液に浸漬し、浸漬後の溶液を回収することを含む、プロテオグリカンの製造方法が記載されている。   For example, as a method for producing proteoglycan from cartilage tissue, Patent Document 2 includes immersing a biological sample such as cartilage tissue containing proteoglycan in an aqueous solution of a surfactant and collecting the solution after immersion. A method for producing proteoglycans is described.

上述したように、変形性関節症の治療としては、鎮痛消炎剤の貼付、ヒアルロン酸の注入、プロテオグリカンの関節内注入などが行われているが、鎮痛消炎剤の貼付は、対症療法的に痛みを除くものであるし、また、ヒアルロン酸の注入及びプロテオグリカンの関節内注入は、侵襲的な処置方法であり、患者、特に高齢の患者の身体に負担をかけるものである。
したがって、患者、特に高齢の患者の身体に負担をかけずに非侵襲的に、関節症の症状を予防、緩和、又は治療できる方法が望まれている。
As described above, osteoarthritis treatment includes the application of analgesic / anti-inflammatory drugs, hyaluronic acid injection, and proteoglycan intra-articular injection, but the application of analgesic anti-inflammatory drugs is symptomatically painful. In addition, hyaluronic acid injection and proteoglycan intra-articular injection are invasive methods of treatment, which burden the body of patients, particularly elderly patients.
Therefore, there is a need for a method that can prevent, alleviate, or treat arthropathy symptoms non-invasively without burdening the body of a patient, particularly an elderly patient.

本発明で使用するプロテオグリカン(以下、「本発明のプロテオグリカン」ともいう。)は、非常に複雑かつ多種の構造を有する糖タンパク質であり、その構造を構造式等で表現することは不可能であるかおよそ実際的ではないため、本発明では、製造方法により当該プロテオグリカンを特定する。   The proteoglycan used in the present invention (hereinafter also referred to as “the proteoglycan of the present invention”) is a glycoprotein having a very complex and various structure, and its structure cannot be expressed by a structural formula or the like. In the present invention, the proteoglycan is specified by the production method because it is not practical.

本発明のプロテオグリカンは、特開2014−9164号公報に記載される方法に準じて製造することができ、その方法を以下に説明する。   The proteoglycan of the present invention can be produced according to the method described in JP 2014-9164 A, and the method will be described below.

本発明のプロテオグリカンを製造する方法は、プロテオグリカンを含有する生物学的試料を界面活性剤の水溶液に浸漬する工程、及び浸漬後の溶液を回収する工程を含む。   The method for producing a proteoglycan of the present invention includes a step of immersing a biological sample containing proteoglycan in an aqueous solution of a surfactant, and a step of recovering the solution after immersion.

プロテオグリカンを含む生物学的試料としては、魚類、軟体動物、鳥類及び哺乳類の軟骨組織、筋肉繊維並びに皮が挙げられるが、中でも、軟骨組織が好ましい。軟骨組織としては、魚類、鳥類及び哺乳類の軟骨組織や、当該軟骨組織の廃棄部位のいずれも、利用することができる。ここで、軟骨組織とは、軟骨単独或いは軟骨の周辺部位、例えば骨、筋肉繊維、皮等を含む組織のいずれも包含する。魚類の軟骨組織としては、一般に流通しているヨシキリザメ、アオザメなどの軟骨魚類のヒレ、軟骨部分はもちろん、特に、サケの頭部にその平均重量で約6%含まれている、氷頭とよばれる鼻軟骨組織が好ましい。北海道沿岸部で漁獲されたサケ(大半はシロサケ)が、様々な加工品として処理される際、その頭部は不要とされることが多く、そのため切断された頭部は、一部魚粉に加工され利用されてはいるものの、その大半は産業廃棄物として廃棄処理されており、氷頭は、その様な廃棄物から簡便、安価かつ安定的に入手することができる。
本発明では、氷頭の他、エイの軟骨組織、サメの軟骨組織等の魚類由来の軟骨組織、ニワトリの軟骨組織等の鳥類の軟骨組織、更にはウシの喉軟骨や気管支軟骨、クジラの軟骨等の哺乳動物由来の軟骨組織も使用することができる。更に、軟体動物であるイカやタコの表皮・軟骨組織にもプロテオグリカンが存在することが知られており、これら軟体動物の表皮・軟骨等も本発明で使用することができる。また、哺乳動物血液中には硫酸をほとんど含まないコンドロイチン・タンパク質複合体(ビクニン)が存在しており、このコンドロイチンは、哺乳動物血液中のムコ多糖のほぼ100%を占めることが報告されている(Salier J.P., Rouet P., Raguenez G., Daveau M.: The inter-alpha-inhibitor family: from structure to regulation Biochem. J., 315, 1-9, 1996)ことから、哺乳動物の血液由来コンドロイチンも、本発明におけるプロテオグリカンを含む生物学的試料として使用できる。上記のプロテオグリカンを含む生物学的試料の多くは産業廃棄物であり、その入手は容易である。これらの原料は、界面活性剤水溶液への浸漬に先だって、表面積を増加させてプロテオグリカンの抽出量を上げるために、可能な限り細かく破砕すること、脱脂することなどの前処理を行なうことが好ましい。
Biological samples containing proteoglycans include fish, mollusk, avian and mammalian cartilage tissue, muscle fibers and skin, with cartilage tissue being preferred. As the cartilage tissue, any of the cartilage tissue of fish, birds and mammals, and the disposal site of the cartilage tissue can be used. Here, the cartilage tissue includes any of cartilage alone or a tissue including a peripheral portion of the cartilage, such as bone, muscle fiber, and skin. As the cartilage tissue of fish, not only fins and cartilage parts of cartilaginous fish such as blue sharks and gray sharks that are generally distributed, but especially ice salmon heads, which contain about 6% in average weight in salmon heads. Nasal cartilage tissue is preferred. When salmon (mostly salmon) caught in the coastal area of Hokkaido are processed as various processed products, the head is often unnecessary, so the cut head is partially processed into fishmeal. Although most of them are disposed of as industrial waste, ice heads can be obtained simply, inexpensively and stably from such waste.
In the present invention, in addition to ice head, fish cartilage tissue such as ray cartilage tissue, shark cartilage tissue, avian cartilage tissue such as chicken cartilage tissue, bovine throat cartilage, bronchial cartilage, whale cartilage It is also possible to use a mammal-derived cartilage tissue such as Furthermore, it is known that proteoglycan is also present in the epidermis / cartilage tissue of squid and octopus, which are molluscs, and the epidermis / cartilage of these molluscs can also be used in the present invention. In addition, chondroitin protein complex (bikunin) containing almost no sulfate is present in mammalian blood, and this chondroitin is reported to occupy almost 100% of mucopolysaccharide in mammalian blood. (Salier JP, Rouet P., Raguenez G., Daveau M .: The inter-alpha-inhibitor family: from structure to regulation Biochem. J., 315, 1-9, 1996) Can also be used as a biological sample containing a proteoglycan in the present invention. Many of the biological samples containing the above-mentioned proteoglycans are industrial waste and are readily available. Prior to the immersion in the surfactant aqueous solution, these raw materials are preferably subjected to pretreatment such as crushing and degreasing as finely as possible in order to increase the surface area and increase the extracted amount of proteoglycan.

界面活性剤としては、陰イオン界面活性剤、陽イオン界面活性剤、両面界面活性剤及び非イオン界面活性剤等の任意の界面活性剤が使用できる。中でも、食品添加物又は食品用乳化剤として承認されている、グリセリン脂肪酸エステル、ポリグリセリン脂肪酸エステル、プロピレングリコール脂肪酸エステル、スークロース脂肪酸エステル、ソルビタン脂肪酸エステル、大豆リン脂質(レシチン)、サポニン等が好ましく、サポニン、レシチン或いはスークロース脂肪酸エステル単体或いはこれらいずれかの混合物が特に好ましい。   As the surfactant, any surfactant such as an anionic surfactant, a cationic surfactant, a double-sided surfactant and a nonionic surfactant can be used. Among them, glycerin fatty acid ester, polyglycerin fatty acid ester, propylene glycol fatty acid ester, sucrose fatty acid ester, sorbitan fatty acid ester, soybean phospholipid (lecithin), saponin, etc., which are approved as food additives or food emulsifiers, are preferable. Lecithin or sucrose fatty acid ester alone or a mixture of any of these is particularly preferred.

サポニンとしては、キラヤサポニン、大豆サポニン、茶サポニンが挙げられる。中でも、キラヤサポニンが好ましい。   Examples of saponins include Kiraya saponin, soybean saponin, and tea saponin. Of these, Kirayasaponin is preferable.

スークロース脂肪酸エステルとしては、スークロース1分子に脂肪酸1分子が付加してできるショ糖脂肪酸モノエステル、脂肪酸2分子が付加してできるジエステル、脂肪酸3分子が付価してできるトリエステルが挙げられる。理論上は、スークロース脂肪酸エステルとしては、脂肪酸8分子の付加したオクタエステルまで存在し得るが、食品用に適するのは、モノエステル、ジエステル、トリエステル及びこれらいずれかの混合物である。中でも、エマルジョンの乳化安定性の観点から、HLB 13〜19、特に14〜19、最適にはHLB 19のスークロース脂肪酸エステルが好ましい。エマルジョンコストの低減の観点も加えれば、モノエステルとジエステルとトリエステルの混合物(以下、「スークロース脂肪酸混合エステル」ともいう)が望ましく、特に、HLB 14〜16のスークロース脂肪酸混合エステルとHLB 19のスークロース脂肪酸モノエステルとの混合物が望ましい。脂肪酸としては、炭素数10〜22の飽和又は不飽和脂肪酸が好ましく、炭素数12〜18の飽和又は不飽和脂肪酸が更に好ましい。   Examples of the sucrose fatty acid ester include a sucrose fatty acid monoester formed by adding one molecule of fatty acid to one molecule of sucrose, a diester formed by adding two molecules of fatty acid, and a triester formed by adding three molecules of fatty acid. Theoretically, sucrose fatty acid esters may exist up to octaesters with 8 molecules of fatty acid, but those suitable for food are monoesters, diesters, triesters and mixtures of any of these. Among these, from the viewpoint of emulsion stability of the emulsion, sucrose fatty acid esters of HLB 13 to 19, particularly 14 to 19, and most preferably HLB 19 are preferred. From the viewpoint of reducing emulsion cost, a mixture of monoester, diester and triester (hereinafter also referred to as “sucrose fatty acid mixed ester”) is desirable, and in particular, sucrose fatty acid mixed ester of HLB 14-16 and sucrose of HLB 19 Mixtures with fatty acid monoesters are preferred. As the fatty acid, a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 10 to 22 carbon atoms is preferable, and a saturated or unsaturated fatty acid having 12 to 18 carbon atoms is more preferable.

本発明で使用する界面活性剤の中でも、プロテオグリカンの抽出効率、後処理の簡便さ等から、スークロース脂肪酸エステル類が好ましく、特に、炭素数12の飽和脂肪酸であるラウリン酸のスークロース脂肪酸エステルであるスークロースラウリン酸エステルが好ましい。   Among the surfactants used in the present invention, sucrose fatty acid esters are preferred from the standpoint of proteoglycan extraction efficiency, ease of post-treatment, etc., and in particular, sucrose fatty acid esters of lauric acid, which is a saturated fatty acid having 12 carbon atoms. Clauslaurate is preferred.

界面活性剤水溶液中の界面活性剤の濃度は、好ましくは0.01〜20重量%、特に好ましくは0.1〜10重量%、更に好ましくは0.5〜5重量%である。浸漬時間は、必要に応じて適宜設定できるが、例えば0.1〜2重量%の界面活性剤、例えばサポニン、レシチン若しくはスークロース脂肪酸エステル、又はこれらいずれかの混合物の水溶液を用いる場合の浸漬時間は、10時間以上とすることが好ましい。また、2〜5重量%の界面活性剤、例えばサポニン、レシチン若しくはスークロース脂肪酸エステル又はこれらいずれかの混合物の溶液を用いる場合の浸漬時間は、12時間程度とすることが好ましい。これら条件により、より高い分子量のプロテオグリカンを効率的に回収し、製造することができる。   The concentration of the surfactant in the aqueous surfactant solution is preferably 0.01 to 20% by weight, particularly preferably 0.1 to 10% by weight, and more preferably 0.5 to 5% by weight. The immersion time can be appropriately set according to need. For example, when using an aqueous solution of 0.1 to 2% by weight of a surfactant, for example, saponin, lecithin or sucrose fatty acid ester, or a mixture of any of these, 10 hours or more is preferable. In addition, the immersion time when using a solution of 2 to 5% by weight of a surfactant, such as saponin, lecithin, sucrose fatty acid ester, or a mixture of any of these, is preferably about 12 hours. Under these conditions, higher molecular weight proteoglycans can be efficiently recovered and produced.

界面活性剤水溶液への生物学的試料の浸漬は、好ましくは30℃〜100℃、より好ましくは40℃〜80℃、特に好ましくは50℃〜70℃で行う。特に、浸漬温度を50℃〜60℃とすることにより、プロテオグリカンは、ほとんど分解されず、高分子の糖タンパク質複合体として抽出することができる。   The immersion of the biological sample in the aqueous surfactant solution is preferably performed at 30 ° C to 100 ° C, more preferably 40 ° C to 80 ° C, and particularly preferably 50 ° C to 70 ° C. In particular, by setting the immersion temperature to 50 ° C. to 60 ° C., the proteoglycan is hardly decomposed and can be extracted as a polymer glycoprotein complex.

To do. It is preferable to immerse with stirring using a mixer or a stirrer.

軟骨組織からのプロテオグリカンの抽出は、例えばカルバゾール法(Johnら、ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY、1967年、第19巻、第119-132頁)によってウロン酸量を検出ないし定量することでモニターすることができるが、その他公知の方法によってウロン酸を検出し、モニターしてもよい。   Extraction of proteoglycan from cartilage tissue can be monitored by detecting or quantifying the amount of uronic acid by, for example, the carbazole method (John et al., ANALYTICAL BIOCHEMISTRY, 1967, Vol. 19, pp. 119-132). In addition, uronic acid may be detected and monitored by a known method.

浸漬が終了した界面活性剤水溶液は、プロテオグリカンを抽出した後の残渣を多く含むので、これらを濾過、遠心分離その他の方法で取り除くことが好ましい。   The surfactant aqueous solution that has been soaked contains a large amount of residue after extraction of proteoglycan, and it is preferable to remove these by filtration, centrifugation, or other methods.

プロテオグリカンを含む抽出液はそのまま製品として利用してもよいが、プロテオグリカンの各種用途に対して求められる純度にまで適当な方法でプロテオグリカンを分離ないし精製することが好ましい。   Although the extract containing proteoglycan may be used as a product as it is, it is preferable to separate or purify proteoglycan by an appropriate method up to the purity required for various uses of proteoglycan.

本発明において、プロテオグリカンの精製方法には公知の精製方法を使用することができる。好ましい精製方法としては、遠心分離法を挙げることができる。遠心分離法によって、細かい固形物を沈殿残渣として簡便に除去することができる。   In the present invention, a known purification method can be used as a method for purifying proteoglycans. As a preferred purification method, a centrifugal separation method can be exemplified. By the centrifugal separation method, a fine solid can be easily removed as a precipitation residue.

また、遠心分離法によって回収されるプロテオグリカンを含む液相を、更にフィルターペーパー又は適当な分画分子量を有する限外濾過膜分離装置などを用いて濾過してもよい。排除分子量としては概ね5万〜100万の範囲であればよい。この操作において、分画分子量50万以上のものを使用すれば、液相からコラーゲンも除去することができ、プロテオグリカンの純度を上げることが可能である。また、プロテオグリカンを含む液相に水を加えて液相の粘度を下げることで、膜の通過を容易にするとともに、これを繰り返すことで、わずかに生じる原料由来の特異臭を除去することも可能である。
更に、得られた濃縮液を食塩飽和エタノールに加えることで、ゲル状のプロテオグリカンを回収することもできる。このゲル状プロテオグリカンは真空凍結乾燥機を用いて固形物にしてもよいし、スプレードライヤーで乾燥させ、粉末状固形物としてもよい。
Further, the liquid phase containing proteoglycan recovered by the centrifugal separation method may be further filtered using a filter paper or an ultrafiltration membrane separation device having an appropriate fractional molecular weight. The excluded molecular weight may be in the range of about 50,000 to 1,000,000. In this operation, if a fractional molecular weight of 500,000 or more is used, collagen can also be removed from the liquid phase, and the purity of proteoglycan can be increased. In addition, by adding water to the liquid phase containing proteoglycan to reduce the viscosity of the liquid phase, it is possible to facilitate passage through the membrane, and by repeating this, it is also possible to remove the slightly specific odor originating from the raw material It is.
Furthermore, gel-like proteoglycan can also be collect | recovered by adding the obtained concentrate to salt saturated ethanol. This gel-like proteoglycan may be made into a solid using a vacuum freeze dryer, or may be dried with a spray dryer to make a powdered solid.

本発明のプロテオグリカンの分子量は、本発明の目的が達成できる限り特段限定されるものではないが、例えば100万以上、好ましくは150万以上、更に好ましくは180万以上が好ましく、上限は特段制限されないが、例えば300万程度以下が好ましい。
分子量の測定方法としては、高速液体クロマトグラフィ装置を用いる方法が挙げられる。
The molecular weight of the proteoglycan of the present invention is not particularly limited as long as the object of the present invention can be achieved. For example, it is 1 million or more, preferably 1.5 million or more, more preferably 1.8 million or more, and the upper limit is not particularly limited. However, for example, about 3 million or less is preferable.

When the composition of the present invention is used as a tablet, it is preferable to include crystalline cellulose and a lubricant.
The content of crystalline cellulose in the tablet is 1 to 80% by weight, preferably 3 to 75% by weight. If the content of crystalline cellulose in the tablet is too high, sticking tends to occur. On the contrary, if the content ratio of crystalline cellulose is too low, the hardness of the tablet is lowered.
Lubricants included in tablets include commonly used lubricants such as calcium stearate, silicon dioxide, carboxymethylcellulose calcium, sucrose fatty acid ester, calcium silicate, magnesium silicate, talc and silica hydrogel. Among them, calcium stearate, silicon dioxide, and carboxymethylcellulose calcium are preferable. The content of the lubricant in the tablet is 0.5 to 5% by mass, preferably 0.5 to 3% by mass. If the content of the lubricant in the tablet is too small, obstacles such as sticking and capping are likely to occur during the tablet production process. On the other hand, if the content of the lubricant is too large, the tablet moldability deteriorates and sufficient tablet hardness cannot be obtained.

錠剤は、原料を同時に又は順次配合して均一に混合し、圧縮成形することにより製造することができる。圧縮成形法とは、一般的に打錠による製造法をいい、原料混合粉末から顆粒を造粒した後、これを圧縮成形する顆粒打錠法と、原料混合粉末をそのまま直接圧縮成形する直接打錠法とを含む。本発明の錠剤は打錠性が良好であるため、その製造法としては、顆粒打錠法及び直接打錠法のいずれを用いることもできるが、工程が簡便であるという点で直接打錠法が好ましい。打錠は、単発打錠機や、ロータリー打錠機等の連続打錠機を利用して、常法に従って行うことができる。打錠の圧力は、後述する所望される錠剤の大きさや硬度を考慮して適宜設定することができるが、例えば、2000〜4000kgfに設定することができる。   Tablets can be produced by blending the raw materials simultaneously or sequentially, mixing them uniformly, and compressing them. The compression molding method generally refers to a production method by tableting. The granulation tableting method in which granules are granulated from a raw material mixed powder and then compression molded, and the direct compression in which the raw material mixed powder is directly compression molded. Including the lock method. Since the tablet of the present invention has good tableting properties, either the granule tableting method or the direct tableting method can be used as its production method, but the direct tableting method is used in that the process is simple. Is preferred. Tableting can be performed according to a conventional method using a single tableting machine or a continuous tableting machine such as a rotary tableting machine. The tableting pressure can be appropriately set in consideration of the desired tablet size and hardness, which will be described later, but can be set to 2000 to 4000 kgf, for example.

錠剤の大きさは、一般的な大きさ、例えば直径5〜12mm程度、質量100〜400mg程度であればよいが、飲みやすさを考慮すると、直径5〜10mm程度、質量200〜300mg程度であることが好ましい。錠剤の硬度は、一般的な錠剤の硬度、例えば6kgf以上であればよいが、割れや欠け等の破損の抑制や、表面の平滑性、摂取後の崩壊性などを考慮すると、6.5〜15kgf程度であることが好ましい。錠剤の硬度は、汎用の錠剤硬度計(例えば、フロイントの錠剤硬度計)を用いて測定することができる。   The size of the tablet may be a general size, for example, a diameter of about 5 to 12 mm and a mass of about 100 to 400 mg, but considering the ease of drinking, the diameter is about 5 to 10 mm and the mass of about 200 to 300 mg. It is preferable. The hardness of the tablet may be a general tablet hardness, for example, 6 kgf or more. However, considering the suppression of breakage such as cracking and chipping, surface smoothness, disintegration after ingestion, etc., 6.5 to It is preferably about 15 kgf. The hardness of the tablet can be measured using a general-purpose tablet hardness meter (for example, Freund's tablet hardness meter).
