Disclosed are: a process for producing spherical microparticles comprising tamsulosin hydrochloride; spherical microparticles produced by the process; coated microparticles produced by coating the spherical microparticles; and an orally disintegrating tablet comprising the coated microparticles. The process comprises the following steps (1) to (3): (1) mixing/stirring tamsulosin hydrochloride (a), microcrystalline cellulose (b) and water together until water is penetrated into the mixture of the components (a) and (b) homogeneously; (2) granulating the mixture produced in step (1) into granules by using a rotating granulator in which the peripheral speed is set to 5.5 to 9.0 m/s; and (3) drying the granules produced in step (2).
