    • نبذة مختصرة :
      A method for manufacturing a preparation which contains acetaminophen at a high content, in particular, a miniaturized tablet (conventional tablets, sustained-release tablets, etc.) which have excellent elution properties, preferable hardness and high drug content uniformity, and a premix drug substance of acetaminophen which has improved manufacturability. According to the method in which acetaminophen having a preset particle size is used for manufacturing a preparation, the flowability of acetaminophen can be improved so that secondary agglomeration can be suppressed and manufacturing efficiency can be elevated. Thus, this method is highly useful for manufacturing an acetaminophen preparation having improved administrability, for example, a reduced size.

    • Claim:
      1. A method for manufacturing a premix drug substance, wherein the method includes the steps of blending a dispersant in an amount of 0.1 to 3% relative to 100% by weight of the premix drug substance and optionally a solubilizing agent in an amount of 0 to 0.8% by weight relative to 100% by weight of the premix drug substance into unpulverized acetaminophen having a particle size distribution that d10 is 5 to 300 μm, d50 is about 120 to about 500 μm, and d90 is 200 to 900 μm in an amount of 90 to 99.9% by weight relative to 100% by weight of the premix drug substance; and then carrying out deagglomeration and/or sizing to disperse and make adhere the dispersant, or the dispersant and the solubilizing agent in and onto the surfaces of the acetaminophen particles uniformly to make powder and wherein the process prevents deterioration of agglomeration and poor flowability, wherein the dispersant is at least one of hydrated silicon dioxide or light anhydrous silicic acid.
    • Claim:
      2. The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the acetaminophen has the particle size distribution that d10 is 10 to 200 μm and d90 is 250 to 800 μm.
    • Claim:
      3. The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the dispersant is hydrated silicon dioxide.
    • Claim:
      4. The manufacturing method according to claim 1 , wherein the solubilizing agent is macrogol or sodium lauryl sulfate.
