Abstract: The present invention provides a preparation containing pioglitazone or a salt thereof as an active ingredient, which shows high bioavailability of pioglitazone and less interindividual variation in blood drug concentration, as well as a preparation with suppressed color change during preservation. The preparation contains a core containing a pharmaceutically acceptable organic acid with water solubility at 20° C. of not less than 10 mg/mL and pKa1 (a negative common logarithm of the first acid dissociation constant Ka1) at 25° C. of not more than 5, and a coating layer containing pioglitazone or a salt thereof. The coating layer may further contain mannitol or trehalose.

Abstract: A controlled release preparation wherein the release of active ingredient is controlled, which releases an active ingredient for an extended period of time by staying or slowly migrating in the gastrointestinal tract, is provided by means such as capsulating a tablet, granule or fine granule wherein the release of active ingredient is controlled and a gel-forming polymer. Said tablet, granule or fine granule has a release-controlled coating-layer formed on a core particle containing an active ingredient.
