PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing crystals of high-purity olmesartan medoxomil containing a small amount of a residual solvent.SOLUTION: There are produced crystals of high-purity olmesartan medoxomil containing a small amount of a residual solvent by adding more than a specific amount of water by adjusting the addition rate by using a specific organic solvent or a mixture of a specific organic solvent and water as a solvent for dissolving olmesartan medoxomil when water is added in a solution of olmesartan medoxomil to precipitate crystals of olmesartan medoxomil.
