Abstract: The present invention provides rapid disintegrating tablets in oral cavity having a shortened disintegration time in oral cavity as well as a sufficient hardness compared to rapid disintegrating tablets of the prior art. The above objective is solved by a composition in which the inorganic excipient and the disintegrating agent are dispersed in the complex particles consisting of mannitol and other saccharide(s) in a specific ratio, and rapid disintegrating tablets in oral cavity obtained by direct compression of the composition.

Abstract: A tocotrienol-containing powder prepared by a process wherein an oil containing a tocotrienol is treated with a lecithin, a cellulose and an emulsifying agent in water to form an emulsion, a powder substance is mixed with the formed emulsion to form a suspension and then the formed suspension is spray-dried. The powder containing tocotrienol, which has excellent storage stability and free flowability, can be used in preparing a tablet which comprises the powder compressed into a tablet form.

Abstract: Flowable powder comprising (A) a fat-soluble drug, (B) gelatin and/or casein, and (C) an adsorbent, and optionally (D) a water-soluble polymer, and a production process thereof.
