PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a tablet containing dried yeast having suitable hardness while indicating improved deglutition.SOLUTION: The tablet containing dried yeast comprises different spherical-shaped compressive surfaces as a top surface and a bottom surface, and a cylinder-shaped edge part which is between those surfaces. The compressive surfaces comprise a spherical surface having a radius of curvature R1 formed in a center part and a curved surface having a smaller radius of curvature R2 than the R1 formed in a peripheral edge part. A concentric circle with the outer periphery of the compressive surfaces is formed on a boundary of the center part and the peripheral edge part of the compressive surfaces and a diameter of the concentric circle is 80-85% of a tablet diameter.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】適当な硬度を有しながら改良された嚥下性を示す、乾燥酵母を含有する錠剤を提供すること。【解決手段】上面及び底面として異形球面状である圧縮面及びその間に円柱状である縁部を有する乾燥酵母を含有する錠剤であって、該圧縮面は、中央部に曲率半径R1を有する球面及び周縁部にR1より小さい曲率半径R2を有する曲面を有し、該中央部と該周縁部の境界は、圧縮面の外周と同心円を形成し、該同心円の直径は、錠径の80~85%である、錠剤。【選択図】図1
