分岐鎖アミノ酸含有液剤の製造方法 技術分野  Method for producing branched chain amino acid-containing solution
本発明は、 有効成分であるアミノ酸成分としてイソロイシン、 ロイシン及びパ リンの 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸のみを含有する医薬用又は健康飲料用の液剤とその 製造方法に関する。  The present invention relates to a liquid preparation for a pharmaceutical or health drink containing only three kinds of branched chain amino acids of isoleucine, leucine and palline as an amino acid component as an active ingredient, and a method for producing the same.
特に、 本発明は、 有効成分として苦みの強いイソロイシン、 ロイシン、 及びバ リンからなる 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸を高濃度で溶解含有している溶液であり、 1 回当たりの服用量を少量化した健康飲料用又は医薬用の液剤やシロップ剤の製造 を可能とした溶液とその製造方法に関するものである。 背景技術  In particular, the present invention is a solution containing three types of branched chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine, and valine, which have strong bitterness, as active ingredients in a high concentration, and the dose per dose is reduced. The present invention relates to a solution capable of producing a liquid or syrup for a health drink or a medicine and a method for producing the same. Background art
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 として含む製剤は肝疾患に有効な治療薬であるが、 現在市販されている製剤は顆 粒剤が主体である。  Preparations containing three types of branched-chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine and palin as active ingredients are effective remedies for liver diseases, but currently marketed preparations mainly consist of granules.
上記 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸を含有する顆粒製剤の場合、 その 1回の服用量が約 5 gと一般の製剤に比較して著しく多く、 しかも苦みが強いことから服用しにく いという難点がある。  In the case of granules containing the above three types of branched-chain amino acids, the single dose is about 5 g, which is significantly higher than that of general preparations, and is difficult to take due to the strong bitterness. is there.
一方、 1回の服用量が多くて服用しにくい薬剤を、 服用時に水を必要とせず咽 喉越しもよい液剤とすることも行われている。 分岐鎖アミノ酸を有効成分とする アミノ酸液剤としては、 疲労の予防又は回復のための経口投与剤として報告があ るが(特開平 7 _ 2 5 8 3 8号公報)、その液量は分岐鎖アミノ酸であるロイシン 2 g当り約 2 0 0 m Lと非常に多量なものであった。  On the other hand, drugs that are difficult to take due to a large dose per dose are also being converted to liquids that do not require water when taken and can pass through the throat. An amino acid solution containing a branched-chain amino acid as an active ingredient has been reported as an orally administered drug for preventing or recovering from fatigue (Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-25838). It was a very large amount of about 200 mL per 2 g of the amino acid leucine.
また、 服用しにくい薬剤を液剤とするために、 その溶解量を多くすることも知 られており、 ビタミン類等ではナトリゥム塩とすることにより溶解度向上の試み がなされているものもある (特公平 2— 1 2 5 4 9公報)。 しかし、 本発明で液剤 化しようとしているイソロイシン、 ロイシン及びバリンからなる 3種の分岐鎖ァ ミノ酸の場合は、 ナトリゥム塩とすると苦味が強くなる傾向がありさらに服用し にくくなるのみならず、 溶液がアルカリ性となるので医薬品、 食品の用途に適さ なくなるので採用することはできない。 発明の開示 It is also known to increase the solubility of drugs that are difficult to take in liquid form. For vitamins, etc., attempts have been made to improve the solubility by using sodium salts (see Tokuhei Koho) 2-1 2 5 4 9 publication). However, in the case of the three kinds of branched-chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine and valine to be made into a liquid preparation in the present invention, if sodium salt is used, the bitter taste tends to become stronger, and further administration is required. Not only will it be difficult to use, but the solution will be alkaline, making it unsuitable for pharmaceutical and food applications, and cannot be adopted. Disclosure of the invention

In particular, the solubility of leucine is 2.3 g at 10 ° C, 2.4 g of ZdL and 20 ° C. / dL, which is extremely low, when preparing a liquid preparation of 10 OmL or less containing 4 g of branched-chain amino acids, there were problems such as crystallization during the distribution process or during refrigerated storage.
本発明の課題は、 1回服用当たりの服用量が少なく、 服用性の良好なイソロイ シン、 ロイシン及びバリンの 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸を有効成分とする医薬用又は 健康飲料用の液剤とその製造方法を提供することにある。  It is an object of the present invention to provide a pharmaceutical or health drink liquid preparation comprising three types of branched chain amino acids of isoleucine, leucine and valine, which have a low dose per dose and have good ingestibility, and their production. It is to provide a method.
特に、 本発明は、 肝疾患に対する有効な治療薬であるイソロイシン、 ロイシン 及びバリンからなる 3種の分岐鎖アミノ酸を有効成分とする医薬用及び健康飲料 用の液剤の 1回服用当たりの液量を小容量化して服用性を改善することを目的と するものである。  In particular, the present invention relates to the use of three types of branched-chain amino acids consisting of isoleucine, leucine, and valine, which are effective therapeutic agents for liver diseases, as an active ingredient in a liquid medicine or health drink for each dose. The aim is to reduce the volume and improve the ingestibility.
