Disclosed is a solid dispersed preparation for poorly water-soluble drugs, which is prepared by dissolving or dispersing the poorly water-soluble drugs in an oil, a fatty acid or a mixture thereof, mixing the solution or dispersion in a water-soluble polyol matrix and drying the mixture. The solid dispersed preparation can be formulated into a power formulation or a granule formulation. The solid dispersed preparation is improved in the solubility of poorly water-soluble drugs in the gastro-intestinal tract, resulting in a great increase in the bioavailability of the drugs. In addition, the solid dispersed preparation gives the pharmaceutical solutions to the problems that the conventional semi-solid or liquid preparations possess, enabling medicinally effective, poorly water-soluble compounds to be formulated, molded and processed, quickly and in an economically favorable manner without use of any organic solvent. |
