Abstract

See full text

A composition for an enteric hard capsule by taking advantage of conventionally unknown thermal gelation characteristics of a neutralized aqueous solution of an enteric polymer, so as to obtain an enteric capsule having sufficient water and acid resistances. More specifically, the composition has hypromellose acetate succinate having a molar substitution with an acetyl group per anhydroglucose unit of 0.6 to 0.8 and a ratio of the molar substitution with an acetyl group to a molar substitution with a succinyl group per anhydroglucose unit of 2.0 to 4.0, a neutralizer, and water method produces an enteric hard capsule having the steps of: immersing a core pin heated at 50 to 80° C. in the composition, taking the immersed core pin out of the composition, and drying a gel layer of the hypromellose acetate succinate formed on the taken-out core pin.
