There exists a strong desire both for pharmaceutical compositions which rapidly exhibit pharmacological effects without an increase in the size of the dosage form or a decline in quality due to interactions between a pharmaceutically active ingredient and the disintegrant, and also for a method of preparing such pharmaceutical compositions. Such a desire is especially acute with regard to, for example, preparations which contain a drug such as an analgesic or a quick-acting hypoglycemic drug that requires the rapid appearance of pharmacological effects following administration, preparations which have a high content of the pharmaceutically active ingredient, and preparations which contain two or more different active pharmaceutical ingredients. Thus, the object of the present invention is to improve the disintegratability of the pharmaceutical compositions without increasing the size of the dosage form and without a decline in quality due to interactions between the pharmaceutically active ingredient and the disintegrant. The present invention provides a method for preparing a pharmaceutical composition having a rapid disintegration time, comprising: blending, in the pharmaceutical composition containing a pharmaceutically active ingredient, at least one disintegrant and at least one water-soluble salt having a pH being from 3 to 9 in an aqueous solution of 2.5% concentration. The invention also provides a premix composition obtained by the preliminary mixture of a disintegrant with a water-soluble inorganic salt having a pH being from 3 to 9 in an aqueous solution of 2.5% concentration.
人们强烈希望药物组合物能迅速显示药理作用,而不会因药物活性成分与崩解剂之间的相互作用而导致剂型体积增大或质量下降,同时也希望有一种方法来制备这种药物组合物。例如,对于含有镇痛药或速效降糖药等需要在给药后迅速产生药理作用的药物的制剂、具有高含量药物活性成分的制剂以及含有两种或两种以上不同药物活性成分的制剂,这种愿望尤为迫切。因此,本发明的目的是改善药物组合物的崩解性,同时不增加剂型的体积,也不会因药物活性成分与崩解剂之间的相互作用而导致质量下降。本发明提供了一种制备具有快速崩解时间的药物组合物的方法,包括:在含有药物活性成分的药物组合物中,混合至少一种崩解剂和至少一种 pH 值为 3 至 9 的水溶性盐,其水溶液的浓度为 2.5%。本发明还提供了一种预混组合物,它是由一种崩解剂与一种水溶性无机盐在浓度为 2.5%的水溶液中初步混合而成,该无机盐的 pH 值为 3 至 9。
