[152] Solid dosage forms for oral administration can be, for example, powders, granules, tablets, pills, capsules and the like as mentioned above. Formulations of such formulations contain the active ingredient in one or more additives such as sucrose, lactose, cellulose sugar, mannitol (D-mannitol), maltitol, dextran, starch (eg corn starch), microcrystalline cellulose, agar, know It can be prepared by mixing and / or kneading with nates, chitin, chitosan, pectin, tragacanth gum, gum arabic, gelatin, collagen, casein, albumin, synthetic or semisynthetic polymers or glycerides. Such formulations generally include additional additives such as inert diluents, lubricants such as magnesium stearate, preservatives such as parabens and sorbic acid, antioxidants such as ascorbic acid, α-tocopherol and cysteine, disintegrants (e.g. sodium cross) Carmellose), a binder (eg hydroxypropyl cellulose), a thickener, a buffer, a sweetener, a copper, a fragrance, and the like. Tablets or pills may further be enteric coated. Oral liquid formulations include pharmaceutically acceptable emulsions, syrups, elixirs, suspensions and solutions, which may contain inert diluents such as water commonly used in the art and may, if necessary, also contain additives. have. Such oral liquid formulations may be prepared by conventional methods, for example by mixing the active ingredient with an inert diluent and, if desired, other additives. Depending on the formulation, oral formulations generally contain from 0.01 to 99% by weight, preferably from 0.1 to 90% by weight and generally from 0.5 to 50% by weight of the active compounds of the invention. . [153] Dosage in certain patients depends on age, weight, general health condition, sex, meal, time of administration, mode of administration, rate of administration, combination of drugs, severity of the condition to be treated, as well as other factors. [154] The daily dosage of a TNF-α inhibitor containing a heterocyclic compound having angiotensin II antagonism used in the present invention may vary depending on the condition and weight of the patient, the type of compound used, the route of administration, etc. Oral daily dosage of 0.01 to 1000 mg, preferably about 0.1 to 50 mg, and parenteral daily administration of about 0.001 to 100 mg, preferably about 0.01 to 50 mg, generally about 0.1 to 20 mg as active ingredient The dose may be administered to an adult (about 60 kg body weight) as a prophylactic / treatment for an inflammatory disease. [155] Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the following examples, but the present invention is not limited to these examples. [156] Example [157] TNF-α inhibitors containing heterocyclic compounds or salts thereof having angiotensin II antagonism in the present invention can be prepared, for example, by the following formulation. [158] Example 1 Capsule [159] (1) candesartan cilexetil 30 mg [160] (2) lactose 90 mg [161] (3) 70 mg of microcrystalline cellulose [162] (4) magnesium stearate 19 mg [163] 1 capsule 200 mg [164] After mixing components (1), (2), (3) and half (4), the mixture is granulated. The remaining ingredient (4) is then added and the whole is filled into gelatin capsules. [165] Example 2. Purification [166] (1) candesartan cilexetil 30 mg [167] (2) Lactose 35 mg [168] (3) 150 mg corn starch [169] (4) microcrystalline cellulose 30 mg [170] (5) magnesium stearate 5 mg [171] 1 tablet 250 mg [172] After mixing components (1), (2), (3), (2) (4) and 1/2 (5), the mixture is granulated. The remaining granules (4) and (5) are added to the resulting granules and compressed into tablets. [173] Experimental Example 1 [174] TNF-α Inhibitory Effect [175] [K. According to the method described in Murase et al., Diabetologia 41: 257-264, 1988, the test drug is administered to a model animal in obese and diabetic conditions, and the change in TNF-α level in the blood or tissue is measured. The TNF-α inhibitory effect of the compound is confirmed. [176] The TNF-α inhibitor of the present invention has excellent TNF-α inhibitory effect and is useful as a prophylactic / treatment agent for inflammatory diseases.
