Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided are HPMCAS powder having high solubility when dissolved in a solvent and being capable of suppressing generation of undissolved materials; and a method for producing the powder. More specifically, provided is hypromellose acetate succinate powder having an average ratio of L to D of from 2.0 to 3.0, wherein L and D mean maximum and minimum diameters of each particle, respectively. Also provided is a method for producing a hypromellose acetate succinate, comprising the steps of: dissolving hypromellose powder in a solvent, esterifying the dissolved hypromellose with succinic anhydride and acetic anhydride in the presence of a catalyst to obtain a reaction mixture, and mixing the reaction mixture with water to precipitate hypromellose acetate succinate, wherein the reaction mixture just before being mixed with the water has a viscosity of from 100 to 200 Pa·s.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

That which is claimed is: 1. A method for producing a composition for solid dispersion, comprising the step of removing a solvent from a solution comprising the hypromellose acetate succinate powder having an average ratio of L to D of from 2.0 to 3.0, wherein L and D mean maximum and minimum diameters of each particle, respectively, a drug and the solvent. 2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the hypromellose acetate succinate powder has a specific surface area of from 2.0 to 5.0 m 2 /g or more. 3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the hypromellose acetate succinate powder has a loose bulk density of from 0.10 to 0.25 g/mL. 4. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the hypromellose acetate succinate powder comprises 10% by weight or less of component not soluble at 20° C. in such a weight of acetone as to be 10 times the weight of the powder.
