Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tablet which is longer in one direction when seen in plan and more particularly to a tablet whose volume can be retained large without increasing its thickness or the like dimension and also whose yield can be improved by preventing them from sticking to each other even if they are subjected to a film-coating or the like treatment.
  • a tablet which is longer in one direction when seen in plan for example, see Patent Literature 1.
  • Concrete examples of them are a substantially rectangular tablet ( 51 ) having smooth corners when seen in plan as shown in FIG. 4( a ), a standard elliptical tablet ( 53 ) having its both ends ( 52 ) formed by semi-circles each of which has a diameter of a tablet width (W) when seen in plan as shown in FIG. 4( b ) and a substantially oval tablet ( 55 ) having its side edges ( 54 ) each formed in the shape of a smooth arc (hereafter referred to as an ‘oval tablet’).
  • the oval tablet ( 55 ) has a side edge ( 54 ) formed by an arc having a radius (R 1 ), for example, about 1.5 times a tablet length (L), to which an end arc having a further smaller radius (R 2 ) is connected smoothly so as to form an end portion ( 52 ).
  • This oval tablet ( 55 ) has only a projected area of about 80% when compared with a rectangular tablet ( 56 ) having a width (W) and a length (L) (see FIG. 4( c )). So in order to keep the volume of this oval tablet large, it is necessary, for example, to increase the thickness of the tablet when compared with the standard elliptical tablet ( 53 ). However, there was a problem that if the thickness of the tablet is increased, the tablet could hardly be swallowed when it was dosed.
  • the projected area is large in plan view.
  • the projected area is about 86% to 90% with respect to the rectangular tablet ( 56 ) (see FIG. 4( b )) having the width (W) and the length (L), although it may be different depending on the ratio of the width to the length.
  • the substantially rectangular tablet ( 51 ) when seen in plan apparently, the ratio of its projected area is much higher.
  • each of these substantially rectangular tablet ( 51 ) and the elliptical tablet ( 53 ) has a long linear portion at a side edge ( 54 ) in plan view, so that when it is subjected to the film-coating treatment, the long linear portion of this side edge ( 54 ) sticks to the other tablet through a coating agent to produce a so-called “twinning” defective product (hereafter referred to as “twin tablet”), which entails a problem of being not easy to improve the yield.
  • the twinning defective product also includes a defective product comprising at least three tablets mutually stuck.
  • Patent Literature 1 Utility Model Application Laid-Open No. 5-37924
  • the present invention has a technical object to solve the above-mentioned problems and provide a tablet which keeps its volume large without increasing its thickness or the like dimension and to enhance the yield by preventing a plurality of tablets from sticking to each other even if they are subjected to the film-coating or the like treatment.
  • the present invention is constructed as follows so as to accomplish the above-mentioned object, for example, if it is explained based on FIGS. 1 to 3 which show embodiments of the present invention.
  • a first invention 1 concerns a tablet longer in one direction, when seen in plan, which has a side edge 6 along a longitudinal direction formed by a curve projecting outwards when seen in plan view and has a projected area in plan view of at least 97% with respect to that of a standard elliptical tablet having both ends each of which is formed by a semi-circle having a diameter of a tablet width (W).
  • a second invention 2 relates to a tablet longer in one direction when seen in plan and having a side edge 6 along the longitudinal direction, formed by a curve projecting outwards when seen in plan view.
  • the side edge 6 has a radius of curvature (R 1 ) at least 1.5 times a tablet length (L).
  • the tablet of the first invention 1 and the tablet of the second invention 2 may be sometimes briefly referred to only as “the tablet of the present invention”.
  • the tablet may have ends formed mostly by straight lines like the substantial rectangle having round corners when seen in plan view or formed by one or plural arcs in combination like the substantial ellipse when seen in plan.
  • the aforesaid ratio of the projected area (hereafter referred to only as “projected area ratio”) of this tablet when seen in plan view to the projected area of the standard elliptical tablet differs depending on not only the shape of the tablet end portion, but also the ratio of the tablet width to the tablet length and the radius of curvature of the side edge. As the radius of curvature of the side edge is larger, the projected area ratio can become larger.
  • the tablet of the present invention its length is preferably set to about 1.5 to 2 times the tablet width from the aspect of the readiness and quantity of dosing.
  • the projected area ratio can be easily set to at least 97%. So this is preferable. If it is at least two times the tablet length, the projected area ratio can become larger more assuredly. This is more preferable.
  • the radius of curvature is preferably set to not more than 6 times, preferably not more than 4.5 times, more preferably not more than 4 times the tablet length.
  • the opposite end portions may be partly linear. But if whole the periphery is formed by curves projecting outwards in plan view, it is more preferable because there is no likelihood that the tablets stick to each other at any portion when it is subjected to the film-coating treatment.
  • the longitudinal ends of the tablet may be formed by large and small arcs in combination to which side edges extending along the longitudinal direction may be connected smoothly.
  • each of the end portions of this tablet is formed by an end arc having a single radius of curvature in plan view, both ends of which end arc are smoothly connected to the side edges along the longitudinal direction, the shape of the tablet is so simplified that the working becomes easy and besides the tablet-making pressure is readily applied to the tablet uniformly. Thus this is more preferable.
  • the end arcs advantageously have their both ends connected to the side edges in contact relationship, it suffices if they are substantially smoothly connected thereto. Therefore, they may be connected together with a slight crossing angle.
  • the tablet of the present invention is suitably applied to the pharmaceutical medicine including pharmaceutical active components to be dosed in a large quantity or a plurality of pharmaceutical active components.
  • metoformin or its salts for example, hydrochloride
  • cefotiam hexetil hydrochloride for example, cefotiam hexetil hydrochloride

  • the plurality of pharmaceutical active components are, for example, a plurality of therapeutic agents for diabetes which provide mutually different effects and functions.
  • a combination of metoformin or its salts (for example, hydrochloride) with pioglytazon or its salts (for example, hydrochloride) is listed.
  • the tablet of the present invention weights at least 150 mg, preferably at least 300 mg, more preferably at least 600 mg.
  • the upper limit is within a range where the tablet can be swallowed when it is dosed.
  • the tablet of the present invention weights at least 300 mg, the effect of the present invention, to be mentioned later, that the volume of the tablet can be kept large without increasing the thickness of the tablet or the like dimension will be exerted extraordinarily.
  • the tablet of the present invention is preferably a film-coated tablet having a film-coating layer from the view point of being easy to dose and well resistant to sun light, being able to make a good release control and having a sufficient hardness for pharmaceutical.
  • the film-coating layer is generally 10 to 200 ⁇ m in thickness.
