The present invention relates to diffusion tablet compositions containing olanzapine and tablets formed thereby.

Olanzapine is a compound represented by the following Chemical Formula 1, and is known to be effective in the treatment of central nervous system diseases, particularly schizophrenia.

[Formula 1]

When oral preparations such as tablets and capsules are prescribed for schizophrenic patients, they are not easy to take because they tend to remain in the oral cavity. Formulation forms are used.

In general, a diffusion tablet formulation is prepared by preparing an aqueous solution containing the active ingredient and gelatin, and freeze-driing it into a matrix, and a method of preparing the freeze-dried active ingredient and sugar and the like.

However, the above methods are difficult to mass-produce because of low productivity during manufacture, such as the need to inject a drug solution into a pre-formed container and freeze-drying at a specific temperature condition, and also difficult to handle due to the low hardness of the preparation method. have.

The present invention provides an olanzapine-containing diffusion tablet composition which can disintegrate rapidly in the oral cavity and exhibit excellent dissolution properties when taken.

The present invention also provides a tablet which is formed of the composition for easy handling.

The present invention is 5 to 20% by weight of olanzapine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, 1 to 20% by weight of disintegrant, 1 to 20% by weight of acid, 40 to 75% by weight of excipient, 0.01 to 5 sweetener It provides a diffusion tablet composition comprising a weight percent and 1 to 5 weight percent of the lubricant.
