Provided is a method for preparing a tablet having high tablet hardness and an excellent disintegration property even if low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose is added in a relatively small amount. More specifically, provided is a method for preparing a tablet comprising steps of granulating while spraying an aqueous dispersion of low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose having a degree of hydroxypropoxyl group substitution ranging from 5 to 16% by weight to a tablet-forming composition to obtain compression-moldable granules and tableting the granules whose surfaces have been modified with the low-substituted hydroxypropyl cellulose to obtain the tablet.
