DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a self-emulsifying soft capsule drug solution, more specifically, containing ubidecarenone (hereinafter sometimes referred to as “CoQ 10 ”) as an active drug component, and has good low temperature stability, Moreover, the present invention relates to a self-emulsifying soft capsule drug solution having excellent absorbability in vivo.

CoQ 10 was first isolated as crystals from bovine myocardium in 1957, and it caused edema, pulmonary depression, and swelling caused by hypofunction of the heart such as chronic hypertension, ischemic heart disease, and valvular disease. Currently, it is widely used clinically as an agent for improving angina symptoms.

CoQ 10 is commercially available in the form of tablets, granules, capsules and the like, but it is desirable to make it into a soft capsule from the viewpoints of absorbability, fast-acting properties and the like. However, a single dose of CoQ 10 of 10m
When g is dissolved in oil to produce a soft capsule as small as possible (amount of drug solution is 150 mg), the stability of the drug solution at low temperature is poor and CoQ 10 crystals precipitate during storage. I got it. Therefore, conventionally, a method of preparing a drug solution by dissolving it in triglyceride of medium-chain fatty acid using a CoQ 10 surfactant has been performed. However, although this soft capsule has some improvement in low temperature stability, it has a drawback of poor absorption in vivo.

Therefore, there has been a demand for the development of a soft capsule drug solution which can contain a large amount of CoQ 10 and can be reduced in the amount of the drug solution, which is excellent in low-temperature stability and is well absorbed in vivo.

In such an actual situation, the present inventor has conducted diligent research to solve the above-mentioned problems, and uses a specific polyglycerin fatty acid ester as a solvent, and if diacetylcapric acid glyceride is blended as a stabilizer, the above-mentioned conditions are satisfied. The present invention has been completed by finding that a soft capsule drug solution having the above can be obtained.

Polyglycerin fatty acid ester is an esterified product of polyglycerin and fatty acid obtained by dehydration condensation of glycerin, and polyglycerin has an average of 4 or more in one molecule.
Since it has an OH group, various polyglycerin fatty acid esters can be obtained by changing the type and molar ratio of the fatty acid. As a result of examining the solubility of CoQ 10 in many of these polyglycerin fatty acid esters, the present inventors found that when the fatty acid was other than oleic acid, CoQ 10 had poor solubility and was unsuitable as a solvent. Further, among the polyglycerin oleic acid esters, decaglyceryl pentaoleate has a particularly excellent effect when its absorbability in vivo is examined. The amount of decaglyceryl pentaoleate to be added to the drug solution of the present invention is preferably 123 to 135 parts by weight when CoQ 10 is 10 parts by weight. If the amount of decaglyceryl pentaoleate is less than that, the low temperature stability is deteriorated and in vivo absorption is also unfavorable. Further, even if it is blended in excess of this range, no further improvement in the effect is observed, and the size of the capsule is increased, which is not preferable.

Further, in the present invention, it is necessary to blend diacetylcapric acid glyceride as a stabilizer, and if it is not blended, the low temperature stability is poor and crystals are precipitated during storage. It is preferable that the glyceride diacetylcaprate is blended in the liquid medicine of the present invention (when 10 parts by weight of CoQ 10 is used) in an amount of 4 to 16 parts by weight.

As described above, according to the present invention, a large amount of CoQ 10 can be stably dissolved in a relatively small amount of solvent, so that a small soft capsule can be produced, and when it is administered in vivo, absorption is reduced. It has the advantage of being good.
