The pharmaceutical granule preparation of the present invention refers to granules and powders described in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia and European Pharmacopoeia, and pills described in the Japanese Pharmacopoeia, and pharmaceutical granules and powders The particle size range of is defined by the Japanese Pharmacopoeia. In particular, the present invention relates to a pharmaceutical granule containing three types of branched-chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine, and valine, which has a strong bitterness, as an active ingredient, wherein the pharmaceutical composition eases the bitterness and is easy to take.

イソロイシン、 ロイシン、 及びパリンからなる 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸を有効成 分として含む医薬用顆粒製剤は肝疾患に有効な治療薬である。 この 3種のアミノ 酸を含む医薬用顆粒製剤は、 そのままでは苦く、 風味が悪く非常に服用しにくい という欠点がある。  Pharmaceutical granules containing three types of branched chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine and palin as active ingredients are effective therapeutic agents for liver diseases. Pharmaceutical granules containing these three types of amino acids have the drawbacks that they are bitter as they are, have poor flavor, and are very difficult to take.
日本特許第 2 9 7 1 8 5 5号公報には、 アミノ酸含有食品において、 その加熱 殺菌や長期保存によって発生するアミノ酸特有の風味 (一般的には獣臭) の発生 を抑制するために、 酸味料で p Hを酸性域に調整し、 さらに甘味料で風味を整え る方法が提案されている。 また、 日本特許出願公開公報、 特開平 1 0— 2 8 7 5 5 1号には、 不快な風味を有するアミノ酸類を配合した内服液剤の不快風味を改 善する方法として、 不快な風味を有するチアミン誘導体を配合することが提案さ れており、 不快な風味を有するアミノ酸としてイソロイシン、 ロイシン、 バリン 等も例示されているが、 この方法は、 特にアミノ酸としてメチォニンを含む場合 に有効であることが記載されている。  Japanese Patent No. 29711855 discloses that in foods containing amino acids, acidity is controlled in order to suppress the generation of flavors (generally animal odor) peculiar to amino acids generated by heat sterilization and long-term storage. A method has been proposed in which the pH is adjusted to an acidic range with a sweetener and the flavor is further adjusted with a sweetener. In addition, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. Hei 10-2875751 discloses a method for improving the unpleasant taste of an oral solution containing an amino acid having an unpleasant taste, which has an unpleasant flavor. It has been proposed to incorporate a thiamine derivative, and isoleucine, leucine, valine, etc. are exemplified as amino acids having an unpleasant flavor.However, this method may be effective particularly when methionine is contained as an amino acid. Has been described.
しかし、 苦みの強い分岐アミノ酸であるイソロイシン、 ロイシン、 パリンを有 効成分とする医薬用顆粒製剤の苦みを抑えることを目的として酸味剤を添加、 使 用した例はない。 また、 甘味剤として従来から使用されているショ糖、 ブドウ糖、 果糖などを顆 粒中に配合すること、 あるいはこれらの糖で矯味コ一ティング層を設けることに よってアミノ酸特有の風味の悪さを隠蔽することはできるが、 イソロイシン、 口 ィシン、 及びバリンのようなアミノ酸を有効成分として含む医薬用顆粒製剤の場 合、 ショ糖、 ブドウ糖、 果糖などの糖成分が有効成分であるイソロイシン、 ロイ シン、 及ぴバリンに接触すると、 いわゆるメイラード反応を起こして医薬用顆粒 製剤が着色し、 保存安定性が悪くなるため、 避けなければならない。 発明の開示 However, there is no example of adding or using a sour agent for the purpose of suppressing the bitterness of a pharmaceutical granule formulation containing the highly bitter branched amino acids isoleucine, leucine and palin as active ingredients. In addition, sucrose, glucose, fructose, etc., which are conventionally used as sweeteners, are blended in the granules, or a flavoring coating layer is provided with these sugars to mask the poor flavor inherent in amino acids. However, in the case of a granular pharmaceutical preparation containing an amino acid such as isoleucine, oral isine, and valine as an active ingredient, sucrose, glucose, fructose, and other sugar components are isoleucine, leucine, Contact with valine causes the so-called Maillard reaction, which causes the coloration of the pharmaceutical granule formulation and impairs the storage stability, and must be avoided.
