PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide tablets that are molded with low pressure, have high hardness, and hardly cause a crack or chip, the tablets being excipients that have no problem of cost needed for a large amount of particles with specific physical properties.SOLUTION: An excipient for tableting consisting of mannitol is characterized by that the mannitol is obtained by mixing crystalline crushed particles with spherical crystalline particles that are obtained by spray drying and are characterized by the repose angle of 35 to 50 degrees, at a ratio of 5:95 to 50:50.SELECTED DRAWING: None【課題】 低成形圧で高硬度かつ割れやカケなどが発生しづらい錠剤であって、特殊な物性の粒子が大量に必要となるコストの面の問題も有さない賦形剤を提供する。【解決手段】 マンニトールからなる打錠用賦形剤であって、当該マンニトールが、噴霧乾燥によって得られた安息角が３５～５０度であることを特徴とする球形結晶粒子と、結晶粉砕粒子とを、５：９５から５０：５０の割合で混合したものであることを特徴とする打錠用賦形剤。【選択図】なし
