Description

本発明は、シートのポケット部に固形薬剤を一個ずつ収容した薬剤プレススルーパック包装体と、該包装体からの薬剤取出方法に関する。   The present invention relates to a drug press-through pack package in which solid drugs are stored one by one in a pocket portion of a sheet, and a method for taking out a drug from the package.

一般に、薬剤のプレススルーパック包装体(以下、PTP包装体と略称する)は、ポリ塩化ビニル、ポリプロピレン、ポリエチレンテレフタレート等の熱可塑性樹脂からなる基材シートに設けた多数のポケット部に、錠剤、タブレット剤、カプセル剤等の固形薬剤を一個ずつ収容すると共に、該基材シートの背面側にアルミ箔等からなる蓋フィルムを貼着して封止したものであり、表面側に膨出したポケット部を指先で押し潰すことにより、該ポケット部内の固形薬剤が蓋フィルムを突き破って放出されるようになっている。   In general, a drug press-through pack package (hereinafter abbreviated as PTP package) is provided in a plurality of pockets provided in a base sheet made of a thermoplastic resin such as polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene, polyethylene terephthalate, Pockets that contain solid drugs such as tablets and capsules one by one and are sealed by sticking a lid film made of aluminum foil or the like to the back side of the base sheet, and bulging to the front side By crushing the part with a fingertip, the solid medicine in the pocket part is released through the lid film.

このような薬剤PTP包装体は、以前には基材シートに設けた縦横の分割線で手折りして1ポケット単位(薬剤1粒単位)に分離できるものであったが、分離したPTP包装体を破封せずに丸ごと服用してしまい、基材シートの角で食道等の消化管を傷つけて出血したり、その傷から重篤な合併症を引き起こしたりする事故が多発していた。このため、近年の薬剤PTP包装体は、サイズ的に誤飲しにくいように、横の分割線のみで2又は3ポケット単位にしか分離できない形になっている。ところが、このように薬剤PTPの分離単位が大きくなっても、特に高齢者の場合にPTP包装体ごと服用することがあり、また1回分ずつの飲み薬に仕分けるために分離したPTP包装体を鋏等で1ポケット単位に切り離し、それを迂闊に飲み込んでしまう事例も少なくない。   Such a drug PTP package was previously able to be manually folded at the vertical and horizontal dividing lines provided on the base sheet and separated into one pocket unit (one drug unit). There were many accidents in which the entire body was taken without being broken, and the gastrointestinal tract such as the esophagus was injured at the corner of the base sheet, causing bleeding and causing serious complications. For this reason, recent drug PTP packages have a shape that can be separated only in units of two or three pockets by only a horizontal dividing line so that it is difficult to accidentally swallow in size. However, even if the separation unit of the drug PTP is increased in this way, it may be taken together with the PTP package, particularly in the case of elderly people, and the separated PTP package may be used for sorting into one dose of medicine. There are not a few cases in which it is cut into units of 1 pocket for example, and swallowed in a detour.

一方、通常の薬剤PTP包装体では、ポケット部を指先で押し潰して薬剤を取り出す際、蓋フィルムを突き破って飛び出した薬剤が散逸し、床等に落下して汚れて無駄になったり、行方不明になって探すのに時間と労力を費やしたりすることも多く、取扱性の面で不便であった。   On the other hand, in the normal medicine PTP package, when taking out the medicine by crushing the pocket with your fingertips, the medicine that has popped out through the lid film will be scattered, falling on the floor etc., becoming dirty and wasted, missing In many cases, it took a lot of time and labor to search, which was inconvenient in terms of handling.

そこで、従来より、薬剤PTP包装体における誤飲防止や取扱性向上を図る手段が種々提案されている。例えば、特許文献1では、PTP包装体の切り離し線にて区割される複数ポケット単位毎に、蓋フィルムにポケット部との対面部分を通過する引き裂き用の糸状体又は帯状体を設け、この糸状体又は帯状体を引っ張ることで蓋フィルムを破断してポケット部を開封できるようにしたものが提案されている。また、特許文献2,3では、切り離し線のないPTP包装体をブランク板紙からなるケース内に保持し、該ケースの上蓋又は底蓋を開いた状態でPTP包装体のポケット部を指で押圧することにより、ケース側に設けた抜脱部又は孔から薬剤を取り出すようにしたものが提案されている。   In view of this, various means for preventing accidental ingestion and improving handling in the medicine PTP package have been proposed. For example, in Patent Document 1, for each of a plurality of pocket units divided by the separation line of the PTP package, a tearing thread or band that passes through the facing part of the pocket is provided on the lid film. A device has been proposed in which a pocket film can be opened by breaking a lid film by pulling a body or a belt-like body. Further, in Patent Documents 2 and 3, a PTP package without a separation line is held in a case made of blank paperboard, and the pocket portion of the PTP package is pressed with a finger while the top cover or bottom cover of the case is opened. Thus, there has been proposed a medicine that is taken out from a removal part or hole provided on the case side.

しかしながら、前記の引き裂き用の糸状体又は帯状体を設けた薬剤PTP包装体では、その糸状体や帯状体を引っ張るという破封方法を服用者(患者)が認識する必要があるが、2又は3ポケット単位の分離状態でもPTP包装体ごと飲み込む心配があるような服用者に対して該破封方法を周知徹底させることは困難である上、PTP包装体そのものが切り離し線によって2ポケット単位程度に分割できるため、確実な誤飲防止を果たせないという問題がある。また、PTP包装体を前記ブランク板紙からなるケースの如きホルダーに納める構成では、誤飲防止は確実に行えるが、そのホルダーの付属によってPTP包装体製品としての材料コストが著しく増大することに加え、PTP包装体を収めた該ホルダーを組み立てるのに非常に手間がかかるという難点があり、更に破封手順を服用者に認知させることが容易でないし、破封時の薬剤の散逸防止には有効ではない。   However, in the medicine PTP package provided with the tearing thread or band, the taker (patient) needs to recognize the tearing method of pulling the thread or band, but 2 or 3 It is difficult for a user who is worried about swallowing the entire PTP package even if the PTP package is separated, and the PTP package itself is divided into two pocket units by a separating line. Therefore, there is a problem that it is impossible to reliably prevent accidental ingestion. In addition, in the configuration in which the PTP package is stored in a holder such as a case made of the blank paperboard, accidental ingestion can be reliably prevented, but in addition to the material cost as a PTP package product being significantly increased by the attachment of the holder, There is a problem that it takes a lot of time to assemble the holder containing the PTP package, and it is not easy for the user to recognize the sealing procedure, and it is effective in preventing the dissipation of the drug at the time of sealing. Absent.

本発明は、上述の事情に鑑みて、薬剤PTP包装体において、服用者がPTP包装体ごと飲み込むという誤飲を確実に防止できると共に、破封容易で薬剤の散逸を生じにくく、またPTP包装体を納めるホルダーのような余分な付属部品を必要とせず、製品コストを低減できる手段を提供することを目的としている。   In view of the above-described circumstances, the present invention can reliably prevent accidental ingestion that a user swallows the entire PTP package in the drug PTP package, is easy to break, and does not easily cause the drug to dissipate. It is an object of the present invention to provide a means capable of reducing the product cost without requiring an extra accessory part such as a holder for storing the product.

次に、本発明の効果について、図面の参照符号を付して説明する。まず、請求項1の発明に係る薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P7では、それを1ポケット単位や2,3ポケット単位に分離できない上、薬剤服用時には該PTP包装体P1〜P7の全体が筒状形態T0,T3,T4になっているため、薬剤Mを取り出すには各ポケット部2を指で押し潰して破封するしかなく、服用者が破封せずに包装体ごと飲み込む可能性は皆無である。しかして、服用者が各ポケット部2を指で押し潰して破封した際、蓋フィルム3を突き破った薬剤Mは、角筒形態T0,T3,T4の内側に放出され、不用意に飛び出して周辺に散逸することがないから、例えば広口の浅い容器R等に受けることで、床等に落下して汚れたり行方不明になったりするのを抑止できる。また、薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P7はそれ自体で筒状形態T0,T3,T4に曲成でき、該PTP包装体を納めるホルダーのような余分な付属部品が不要であるから、該付属部品によるコスト上昇を回避できる。   Next, effects of the present invention will be described with reference numerals in the drawings. First, in the medicine PTP packaging bodies P1 to P7 according to the invention of claim 1, it cannot be separated into 1 pocket unit or 2 or 3 pocket units, and the whole of the PTP packaging bodies P1 to P7 is cylindrical when taking medicine. Since it is T0, T3, and T4, in order to take out the medicine M, each pocket part 2 must be crushed and broken with a finger, and there is no possibility that the user swallows the whole package without breaking it. is there. Thus, when the user crushes each pocket portion 2 with a finger and seals it, the medicine M that has pierced the lid film 3 is released to the inside of the rectangular tube forms T0, T3, T4, and pops out carelessly. Since it does not dissipate to the periphery, for example, by receiving it in a shallow container R or the like having a wide mouth, it can be prevented from falling on the floor or the like and becoming dirty or missing. Moreover, since the medicine PTP packaging bodies P1 to P7 can be bent into cylindrical shapes T0, T3, and T4 by themselves and an extra accessory part such as a holder for housing the PTP packaging body is not required, Cost increase can be avoided.

請求項2の発明によれば、基材シート1の折り目4によって平坦形態Fから折り曲げ、基材シート両側縁部1a,1bを止着することにより、容易に3〜6角の角筒状形態T3,T4に組立形成できる。   According to the second aspect of the present invention, the base sheet 1 is bent from the flat form F by the crease 4 and fastened to the both side edges 1a and 1b of the base sheet, thereby easily forming a rectangular tube shape of 3 to 6 corners. Can be assembled to T3 and T4.

請求項3の発明によれば、平坦形態Fから全体を湾曲させて基材シート両側縁部1a,1bを止着することにより、容易に円筒状形態T0に組立形成できる。   According to the invention of claim 3, by curving the whole from the flat form F and fixing the both side edges 1a, 1b of the base sheet, it can be easily assembled into the cylindrical form T0.

請求項4の発明に係る薬剤PTP包装体では、予め基材シート両側縁部1a,1bが止着されて筒状形態T0,T4になっているから、薬剤Mを服用する際に該筒状形態T0,T4の所要のポケット部2を破封すればよく、薬局において角筒形態T0,T4に組み立てる手間も不要となる。   In the medicine PTP package according to the invention of claim 4, since both side edges 1a and 1b of the base sheet are fixed in advance to form the tubular forms T0 and T4, the tubular shape is taken when taking the medicine M. What is necessary is just to seal the required pocket part 2 of form T0, T4, and the effort which assembles into square tube form T0, T4 in a pharmacy becomes unnecessary.

請求項5の発明によれば、前記の予め筒状形態T0,T4とする場合の基材シート両側縁部1a,1bの止着をヒートシール9にて行うから、該筒状形態T0,T4の組立形成を非常に能率よく容易に短時間で行える。   According to the invention of claim 5, since the base sheet side edges 1a and 1b are fixed by the heat seal 9 in the case of the tubular forms T0 and T4 in advance, the tubular forms T0 and T4 are used. Can be assembled very efficiently and easily in a short time.

請求項6の発明に係る薬剤PTP包装体からの薬剤取出方法では、薬局において、薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P7を平坦形態Fから筒状形態T0,T3,T4に曲成し、接合した基材シート両側縁部1a,1bを止着し、服用者(患者)に手渡すようにすればよい。これにより、服用者は、受け取った筒状形態T0,T3,T4の薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P7より、その所要のポケット部2を外側から指で押し潰すだけで簡単に固形薬剤Mを取り出せるから、操作的に極めて簡易であり、破封せずに飲み込む懸念がなく、各別な破封方法を覚える必要もない。   In the method for taking out a drug from the drug PTP package according to the invention of claim 6, in the pharmacy, the drug PTP packages P1 to P7 are bent from the flat form F to the cylindrical forms T0, T3, T4 and joined together. The both side edges 1a and 1b of the sheet may be fastened and handed to the user (patient). Accordingly, the user can easily take out the solid medicine M from the received cylindrical form T0, T3, T4 of the medicine PTP package P1 to P7 by simply crushing the required pocket portion 2 from the outside with a finger. It is extremely easy to operate, there is no concern of swallowing without breaking, and there is no need to learn different methods of breaking.

請求項7の発明に係る薬剤PTP包装体からの薬剤取出方法では、薬剤PTP包装体P8,P9が予めら筒状形態T0,T4になっているから、服用者(患者)はその所要のポケット部2を外側から指で押し潰すだけで簡単に固形薬剤Mを取り出せ、操作的に極めて簡易であり、破封せずに飲み込む懸念がなく、各別な破封方法を覚える必要もない。   In the method for taking out a medicine from the medicine PTP package according to the invention of claim 7, since the medicine PTP packaging bodies P8 and P9 are preliminarily in the tubular shapes T0 and T4, the user (patient) can take the required pocket.

この薬剤PTP包装体P1の基材シート1には、図1(a)における左下−右上方向を縦方向として、ポケット部2群を1縦列毎に区切る3本の折り目4が平行に等間隔で形成されると共に、一方の側縁部1aには側方へ突出する3個の略矢印形の係止突片51が等間隔で設けられ、他方の側縁部1bには各係止突片51に対向して縦方向に沿う3つスリット孔52が穿設されている。なお、折り目4は、折り曲げ容易であっても断裂しにくいように、線状の薄肉部によって構成されている。また、係止突片51及びスリット孔52は基材シート1を原板シートから打ち抜く際に同時に形成されている。   In the base material sheet 1 of the medicine PTP package P1, three fold lines 4 that divide the pocket group 2 group by column are arranged at equal intervals in parallel with the lower left-upper right direction in FIG. The one side edge portion 1a is formed with three substantially arrow-shaped locking projections 51 at equal intervals, and the other side edge portion 1b is provided with each locking projection piece. Opposite to 51, three slit holes 52 are formed along the vertical direction. Note that the crease 4 is constituted by a linear thin-walled portion so that it is difficult to bend even if it is easy to bend. Further, the locking protrusions 51 and the slit holes 52 are formed simultaneously when the base sheet 1 is punched out from the original sheet.

この薬剤PTP包装体P1は、製薬メーカー等の製造者から医療機関の調剤部や薬局等に対し、図1(a)で示す嵩張らない平坦形態Fとして納入されるが、処方箋に則って患者に手渡される際には予め図1(b)で示す四角筒状形態T4に転換されている。すなわち、平坦形態Fから各折り目4で表面側凸に90°折り曲げることにより、全体が各側面sの外側にポケット部2を膨出する四角筒状に曲成すると共に、基材シート1の側縁部1aの各係止突片51を側縁部1bのスリット孔52に挿嵌することにより、四角筒状形態T4に組み立てて患者に提供する。   The drug PTP package P1 is delivered as a non-bulky flat form F shown in FIG. 1 (a) from a manufacturer such as a pharmaceutical manufacturer to a dispensing department or a pharmacy of a medical institution. When handed over, it has been converted to a square cylindrical form T4 shown in FIG. That is, by bending 90 ° from the flat form F to the front side convex at each crease 4, the whole is bent into a square tube shape that bulges the pocket portion 2 outside each side surface s, and the side of the base sheet 1. Each locking protrusion 51 of the edge portion 1a is inserted into the slit hole 52 of the side edge portion 1b, thereby being assembled into a rectangular tubular form T4 and provided to the patient.

この四角筒状形態T4とした薬剤PTP包装体P1では、元来より基材シート1に切り離し線がないので1,2ポケットの小さい単位に手で分離することはできないが、その立体構造からして鋏等で小さい単位に切り離すことも想定できない。従って、患者が薬剤Maを取り出して服用するには、ポケット部2を指で押し潰して破封するしかなく、破封せずに包装体ごと飲み込む可能性は皆無である。そして、患者がポケット部2を指で押し潰して破封すると、図1(b)で示すように蓋フィルム3を突き破った薬剤Mが四角筒状形態T4の内側に放出されるから、該薬剤Mが不用意に飛び出して周辺に散逸することはない。従って、薬剤Mが床等に落下して汚れて無駄になったり、行方不明になって探すのに時間と労力を費やしたりするのを回避できる。   In the drug PTP package P1 having this square cylindrical form T4, since the base sheet 1 has no separation line from the beginning, it cannot be separated by hand into small units of 1 or 2 pockets. It cannot be assumed that it can be separated into smaller units with a kite etc. Therefore, in order for the patient to take out the medicine Ma and take it, the pocket part 2 must be crushed with a finger and broken, and there is no possibility of swallowing the whole package without breaking. When the patient squeezes and tears the pocket portion 2 with a finger, the medicine M that has pierced the lid film 3 as shown in FIG. 1B is released to the inside of the square cylindrical form T4. M will not accidentally jump out and dissipate around. Therefore, it can be avoided that the medicine M falls on the floor or the like and becomes dirty and wasted, or it is lost and time and labor are spent searching for it.

次に、図2で示す第二実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P2では、前記第一実施形態と同様に、3本の折り目4を有する基材シート1の各ポケット部2に固形薬剤Mを一個ずつ収容した状態で、該基材シート1の背面側に蓋フィルム3を貼着して各ポケット部2を密封しているが、その基材シート1の一方の側縁部1aには折り目41を介して下側への折り返し部53aが形成されると共に、他方の側縁部1bには上側への折り返し部53bが形成されている。そして、この薬剤PTP包装体P2は、前記第一実施形態と同様に、図2(a)で示す納入時の平坦形態Fから四角筒状に曲成し、折り目41を内向きに折り曲げた状態で基材シート1の両側縁部1a,1bの折り返し部53a,53b同士を相互に係着することにより、図2(b)で示す四角筒状形態T4として患者に手渡される。   Next, in the medicine PTP package P2 of the second embodiment shown in FIG. 2, one solid medicine M is placed in each pocket portion 2 of the base sheet 1 having the three folds 4 as in the first embodiment. Each of the pocket portions 2 is sealed by adhering a lid film 3 to the back side of the base sheet 1 in a state of being accommodated one by one, but a crease 41 is formed on one side edge 1 a of the base sheet 1. The lower folded portion 53a is formed through the upper side, and the upper folded portion 53b is formed on the other side edge portion 1b. And like this first embodiment, this medicine PTP package P2 is bent from the flat form F at the time of delivery shown in FIG. 2 (a) into a square cylinder, and the fold line 41 is bent inward. Then, the folded-back portions 53a and 53b of the side edge portions 1a and 1b of the base sheet 1 are engaged with each other to be handed to the patient as a rectangular tubular form T4 shown in FIG.

また、図3で示す第三実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P3では、やはり3本の折り目4を有する基材シート1の各ポケット部2に固形薬剤Mを一個ずつ収容した状態で、その背面側に蓋フィルム3を貼着しているが、その基材シート1の一方の側縁部1aには全長にわたって折り目42によって分画された帯状の接着片11が延設され、該接着片11の表面に剥離紙61付きの粘着層6が形成されている。そして、この薬剤PTP包装体P3は、図3(a)で示す納入時の平坦形態Fから前記同様に各折り目4での折り曲げで四角筒状に曲成すると共に、図3(b)で示すように、側縁部1aの接着片11を折り目42で内向きに折り曲げ、剥離紙61を引き剥がして露呈させた粘着層6を側縁部1bの背面側に被着させることにより、四角筒状形態T4として患者に手渡される。   Further, in the medicine PTP package P3 of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the back side of the base material sheet 1 having three folds 4 in the state where the solid medicine M is accommodated one by one. The cover film 3 is attached to the base sheet 1, and one side edge 1 a of the base sheet 1 is provided with a strip-shaped adhesive piece 11 divided by the crease 42 over the entire length thereof. An adhesive layer 6 with release paper 61 is formed on the surface. And this medicine PTP package P3 is bent into a square cylinder shape by bending at each fold line 4 from the flat form F at the time of delivery shown in FIG. 3 (a), and shown in FIG. 3 (b). As described above, the adhesive piece 11 of the side edge portion 1a is folded inward at the crease 42, and the adhesive layer 6 exposed by peeling off the release paper 61 is attached to the back side of the side edge portion 1b. It is handed to the patient as a state T4.

更に、図4で示す第四実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P4では、同様に3本の折り目4を有する基材シート1の各ポケット部2に固形薬剤Mを一個ずつ収容した状態で、その背面側に蓋フィルム3を貼着しているが、その基材シート1の両側縁部1a,1bには全長にわたって各々折り目43によって分画された帯状の止着片12a,12bが延設されている。そして、この薬剤PTP包装体P4は、図4(a)で示す納入時の平坦形態Fから前記同様に各折り目4での折り曲げで四角筒状に曲成すると共に、図4(b)で示すように、互いに外側へくの字状に折り曲げて接合させた両止着片12a,12bをホッチキスの針7で止着することにより、四角筒状形態T4として患者に手渡される。なお、このホッチキスの針7で止着する代わりに、基材シート1の両側縁部1a,1bの帯状の止着片12a,12bを裏面側に蓋フィルム3がない状態とし、接合させた両止着片12a,12bを熱溶着して止着一体化することも可能である。   Furthermore, in the medicine PTP package P4 of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 4, the back surface of the base material sheet 1 having the three folds 4 in the state where the solid medicine M is accommodated one by one. Although the lid film 3 is adhered to the side, the belt-like fastening pieces 12a and 12b divided by the crease 43 are extended over the entire length on both side edges 1a and 1b of the base sheet 1. Yes. The medicine PTP package P4 is bent from the flat form F at the time of delivery shown in FIG. 4 (a) into a square cylinder by bending at each crease 4 in the same manner as described above, and shown in FIG. 4 (b). In this way, the two fastening pieces 12a and 12b that are bent and joined to each other outwardly are fastened by the stapler needle 7, so that they are handed to the patient as a square cylindrical form T4. Instead of fastening with the staple 7, the belt-like fastening pieces 12 a, 12 b of the side edges 1 a, 1 b of the base sheet 1 are made to have no cover film 3 on the back side and joined together. The fastening pieces 12a and 12b can be heat-welded and integrated.

これら第二〜第四実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P2〜P4においても、第一実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P1と同様に、患者が破封せずに包装体ごと飲み込む可能性は皆無であると共に、破封した際に薬剤Mが四角筒状形態T4の内側に放出されるので、床等に落下して汚れて無駄になったり、行方不明になって探すのに時間と労力を費やしたりするのを回避できる。また、第一実施形態を含めて、これら薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P4では、それ自体で四角筒状形態T4に曲成でき、該PTP包装体を納めるホルダーのような余分な付属部品が不要であるから、該付属部品によるコスト上昇が避けられる。   In the drug PTP packages P2 to P4 of the second to fourth embodiments, as with the drug PTP package P1 of the first embodiment, there is no possibility that the patient swallows the package without breaking. At the same time, since the medicine M is released inside the square cylindrical form T4 when it is sealed, it falls on the floor and becomes dirty and wasted, or it takes time and effort to find missing Can be avoided. In addition, including the first embodiment, these medicine PTP packaging bodies P1 to P4 can be bent into a square cylindrical shape T4 by themselves, and an extra accessory such as a holder for housing the PTP packaging body is unnecessary. Therefore, an increase in cost due to the accessory can be avoided.

上記第一〜第四実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P4は四角筒状形態T4として患者に手渡すものであるが、本発明の薬剤PTP包装体は後述する第五及び第六実施形態のような三角筒状形態、あるいは五角筒状形態や6角筒状形態、更には第七実施形態のような円筒状形態となる構成も包含する。ただし、七角を越える多角筒状形態では、嵩張り過ぎる上に筒形が崩れ易くなるため、却って取扱性が悪くなる。   The drug PTP packages P1 to P4 of the first to fourth embodiments are handed to the patient as a rectangular tube form T4, but the drug PTP package of the present invention is as in the fifth and sixth embodiments described later. Also included is a configuration that is a triangular tube shape, a pentagonal tube shape, a hexagonal tube shape, or a cylindrical shape as in the seventh embodiment. However, the polygonal cylindrical shape exceeding the heptagon is too bulky and the cylindrical shape is liable to collapse.

図5で示す第五実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P5は、基材シート2の折り目4を3縦列のポケット部2に対応して2本にした以外は、前記第一実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P1と同様構成になっている。この薬剤PTP包装体P5では、図5(a)の平坦形態Fから各折り目4で表面側凸に60°折り曲げることにより、全体が各側面sの外側にポケット部2を膨出する三角筒状に曲成すると共に、基材シート1の側縁部1aの各係止突片51を側縁部1bのスリット孔52に挿嵌することにより、図5(b)で示す三角筒状形態T3として患者に提供する。   The drug PTP package P5 of the fifth embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is the drug PTP package of the first embodiment except that the fold 4 of the base sheet 2 is two corresponding to the three vertical pocket portions 2. The configuration is the same as that of the body P1. In this medicine PTP package P5, the flat form F in FIG. 5A is folded at 60 ° in a convex manner on the surface side at each crease 4 to form a triangular cylindrical shape that bulges out the pocket portion 2 outside each side surface s. And the triangular projection T3 shown in FIG. 5 (b) by inserting each locking protrusion 51 of the side edge 1a of the base sheet 1 into the slit hole 52 of the side edge 1b. As provided to patients.

図6で示す第六実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P6は、三縦列のポケット部2及び2本の折り目4を有する基材シート1の背面側に、ラッピング・タイ8が横方向に沿って融着され、その上に蓋フィルム3が貼着されており、その基材シート1の両側縁部1a,1bの各中央位置から該ラッピング・タイ8の両端部8a,8bが外側へ延び出している。この薬剤PTP包装体P6では、前記第五実施形態と同様に図6(a)の平坦形態Fから各折り目4で表面側凸に60°折り曲げて三角筒状に曲成した上で、図6(b)の如くラッピング・タイ8の両端部8a,8bを合わせて捩ることにより、三角筒状形態T3として患者に提供する。   In the medicine PTP package P6 of the sixth embodiment shown in FIG. 6, the wrapping tie 8 is melted along the lateral direction on the back side of the base sheet 1 having three columns of pocket portions 2 and two fold lines 4. The lid film 3 is adhered on the both ends, and both end portions 8a and 8b of the wrapping tie 8 extend outward from the center positions of both side edges 1a and 1b of the base sheet 1. Yes. In this medicine PTP package P6, as in the fifth embodiment, the flat form F of FIG. By twisting the both ends 8a and 8b of the wrapping tie 8 as shown in (b), the triangular tube form T3 is provided to the patient.

図7で示す第七実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P7は、基材シート1の各ポケット部2に固形薬剤Mを一個ずつ収容した状態で、該基材シート1の背面側に蓋フィルム3を貼着して各ポケット部2を密封している。しかして、該基材シート1は、折り目を設けていないが、一方の側縁部1aに下側への折り返し部53aが形成されると共に、他方の側縁部1bには上側への折り返し部53bが形成されており、図7(a)で示す納入時の平坦形態Fから全体を湾曲させて円筒状に曲成し、両側縁部1a,1bの折り返し部53a,53b同士を相互に係着することにより、図7(b)で示す円筒状形態T0として患者に手渡される。   The medicine PTP package P7 of the seventh embodiment shown in FIG. 7 has the lid film 3 on the back side of the base sheet 1 in a state where one solid medicine M is accommodated in each pocket portion 2 of the base sheet 1. Each pocket part 2 is sealed by sticking. Thus, the base sheet 1 is not provided with a crease, but a lower folded portion 53a is formed on one side edge portion 1a, and an upper folded portion is formed on the other side edge portion 1b. 53b is formed, and is bent into a cylindrical shape from the flat form F upon delivery shown in FIG. 7A, and the folded portions 53a and 53b of the side edges 1a and 1b are mutually connected. By wearing it, it is handed to the patient as a cylindrical form T0 shown in FIG.

これら第五及び第六実施形態の如く三角筒状形態T3とした薬剤PTP包装体P5,P6、ならびに第七実施形態の如く円筒状形態T0とした薬剤PTP包装体P7でも、患者が破封せずに包装体ごと飲み込む可能性は皆無であると共に、所要のポケット部2を指で押し潰して破封すると、蓋フィルム3を突き破った薬剤Mが筒状形態T3,T0の内側に放出されることになる。従って、これら薬剤PTP包装体P5〜P7でも、確実な誤飲防止を果たせると共に、破封時の薬剤Mの散逸を防止できる。   The patients PTP packaging bodies P5 and P6 having a triangular cylindrical shape T3 as in the fifth and sixth embodiments and the pharmaceutical PTP packaging bodies P7 having a cylindrical shape T0 as in the seventh embodiment are also sealed. In addition, there is no possibility of swallowing the entire package, and when the required pocket 2 is crushed and broken with a finger, the medicine M that has broken through the lid film 3 is released to the inside of the cylindrical forms T3, T0. It will be. Therefore, these medicine PTP packaging bodies P5 to P7 can surely prevent accidental ingestion and can prevent the medicine M from being dissipated at the time of breaking.

上述した第一〜第七実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P1〜P7は平坦形態Fとして医療機関の調剤部や薬局等に納入されるものであるが、予め薬剤メーカー等の製造者側で筒状形態として供給すれば、輸送や保管時に嵩張るものの、該調剤部や薬局等で筒状形態に組み立てる手間が省けるという大きな利点がある。また、このように製造者側で筒状形態とする場合は、前記第一〜第七実施形態のように基材シート両側縁部1a,1bを各別な止着構造にする必要がなく、ヒートシールによって基材シート両側縁部1a,1bを直接に融着できる上、薬剤PTP包装体の連続製造ラインにおける蓋フィルム3の貼着工程の後に、筒状形態への曲成工程とヒートシール工程を組み込んで自動化し、高い生産効率を達成することが可能となる。   The drug PTP packages P1 to P7 of the first to seventh embodiments described above are delivered to a dispensing unit or a pharmacy of a medical institution as a flat form F, but are previously tubular by a manufacturer such as a drug manufacturer. If supplied as a form, it is bulky at the time of transportation and storage, but there is a great advantage that it is possible to save the trouble of assembling into a tubular form at the dispensing part or pharmacy. Moreover, when it is set as a cylindrical form on the manufacturer side in this way, it is not necessary to make the base material sheet both side edges 1a, 1b as separate fastening structures as in the first to seventh embodiments, The base sheet side edges 1a and 1b can be directly fused by heat sealing, and after the step of attaching the lid film 3 in the continuous production line of the drug PTP package, the step of bending into a tubular form and heat sealing It is possible to achieve high production efficiency by incorporating processes and automating.

図8及び図9で示す第八及び第九実施形態の薬剤PTP包装体P8,9は共に、基材シート両側縁部1a,1bをヒートシール9によって溶着することにより、予め全体を筒状形態、つまり包装体P8では四角筒状形態、包装体P9では円筒状形態にしたものである。無論、この予め形成する筒状形態は、四角筒状以外の多角筒状形態や楕円筒状形態でもよい。   The medicine PTP packaging bodies P8, 9 of the eighth and ninth embodiments shown in FIG. 8 and FIG. 9 are both cylindrically formed in advance by welding both side edges 1a, 1b of the base sheet with the heat seal 9. That is, the package P8 has a rectangular cylindrical shape, and the package P9 has a cylindrical shape. Of course, this pre-formed tubular form may be a polygonal tubular form other than a square tubular form or an elliptical tubular form.

なお、本発明の薬剤PTP包装体では筒状形態で破封して薬剤Mを取り出すことから、該筒状形態の一端側開口部を下向きにして破封し、落下する薬剤Mを空いた掌で受け取ることも容易であるが、例えば図10に示すように広口の浅い容器Rで受けるようにすれば、該薬剤Mの散逸をより確実に防止できると共に、PTP包装体に収容した複数種の薬剤を同時に服用する場合に順次同様にして同じ容器Rに受け取り、これら薬剤を一括して服用できるので便利である。   In the medicine PTP package of the present invention, since the medicine M is taken out in a tubular form, the medicine M is taken out with the one end side opening of the tubular form facing downward, and the falling medicine M is emptied. However, if it is received in a shallow container R having a wide mouth as shown in FIG. 10, for example, the dissipation of the drug M can be prevented more reliably, and a plurality of kinds of materials contained in the PTP package can be prevented. When taking medicines simultaneously, it is convenient because they can be received in the same container R in the same manner and taken in a batch.

一方、例えば風邪薬、解熱鎮痛剤、トローチ等として市販される薬剤PTP包装体製品の場合、服用者自らが平坦形態から筒形形態に組み立てて用いることは、手間がかかる上に組立手順を間違う可能性もあり、また服用者が平坦形態Fにおいて鋏等で1ポケット単位のように小さく切り離し、迂闊に破封せずに誤飲する懸念もある。このため、上記市販用の薬剤PTP包装体製品については、既述のように製造者側で予め平坦形態から筒状形態に組み立て、例えば図11(a)(b)で例示するように、四角筒状形態T4や三角筒形態T3、更には図示を省略しているが円筒状形態とした薬剤PTP包装体Pの複数本を包装箱Bに装填して製品化することが推奨される。この場合、三角筒形態T3については、矩形空間に複数本を納め易いように、正三角形よりも図示の如く直角二等辺三角形の筒形とするのがよい。   On the other hand, for example, in the case of a drug PTP package product marketed as a cold medicine, antipyretic analgesic, troche, etc., it is troublesome for the user himself to assemble from a flat form to a cylindrical form and the assembly procedure is wrong. There is also a possibility, and there is also a concern that the user may divide the flat form F as small as one pocket unit with a bag or the like and accidentally ingest it without breaking it by detour. For this reason, as described above, the commercially available drug PTP package product is assembled from a flat form into a tubular form on the manufacturer side as described above. For example, as illustrated in FIGS. It is recommended that a cylindrical form T4, a triangular cylinder form T3, and a plurality of medicine PTP packages P in a cylindrical form are loaded into the packaging box B for commercialization although not shown. In this case, the triangular cylinder form T3 is preferably a cylinder of a right isosceles triangle as shown in the figure rather than a regular triangle so that a plurality of triangles can be accommodated in the rectangular space.

また、特に予め筒状形態とする薬剤PTP包装体については、基材シート1のポケット部2を千鳥状配置にすれば、包装箱Bへの装填時に相互のポケット部2による膨出部分がずれて噛み合うことで空間効率を高めることができる。更に、本発明の薬剤PTP包装体では、基材シート1の一端側に筒状形態の開口部に対応する形状の蓋板部を一体形成しておき、筒状形態にした際の一方側の開口部に該蓋板部を折り付けて嵌合させることにより、該筒状形態での保形強度を高め、もってポケット部2の押圧による破封を容易にし、反対側の開口部から薬剤Mを取り出すようにしてもよい。   Moreover, especially about the medicine PTP package which is made into a cylindrical shape in advance, if the pocket portions 2 of the base sheet 1 are arranged in a staggered manner, the bulging portions due to the pocket portions 2 are shifted when loaded into the packaging box B. Spatial efficiency can be increased by meshing with each other. Furthermore, in the medicine PTP package of the present invention, a lid plate portion having a shape corresponding to the opening portion of the tubular shape is integrally formed on one end side of the base sheet 1, and the one side when the tubular shape is formed. By folding and fitting the lid plate part to the opening, the shape retention strength in the cylindrical shape is increased, thereby facilitating the breakage by pressing the pocket part 2, and the drug M from the opening on the opposite side. You may make it take out.

上記の各実施形態では基材シート1のポケット部2が丸い糖衣錠タイプの固形薬剤Mに対応した丸い形になっているが、該ポケット部の形は収容する薬剤形状に応じて種々設定でき,例えば細長いカプセル剤には細長いポケット部を採用すればよい。また、実施形態では角筒状形態の各側面sに一縦列のポケット部2が配置する構成を例示したが、薬剤Mが小さい場合等で各側面sに二縦列以上のポケット部2が配置する構成でもよい。更に、基材シート1の折り目4についても、例示した線状の薄肉部によって形成する以外に、ごく浅い切り込み、間隔の大きい大きいミシン目、形状記憶技術による癖付け等、折り曲げ容易で断裂しにくくできる種々の形成手段を採用できる。その他、本発明においては、平坦形態における基材シート1の縦横寸法、各縦列のポケット部2の数と配置間隔、角状形態で接合する基材シート両側縁部1a,1bの止着手段としての係着部の構造等、細部構成については実施形態以外に種々設計変更可能である。   In each of the above embodiments, the pocket portion 2 of the base sheet 1 has a round shape corresponding to the round dragee-type solid drug M, but the shape of the pocket portion can be variously set according to the drug shape to be accommodated, For example, an elongated pocket may be employed for an elongated capsule. In the embodiment, the configuration in which one column of pocket portions 2 is arranged on each side surface s of the rectangular tube shape is illustrated. However, when the medicine M is small, two or more pocket portions 2 are arranged on each side surface s. It may be configured. Furthermore, the crease 4 of the base sheet 1 is not easily formed by the linear thin-walled portion, but is very shallow and has a large perforation with a large interval, brazing by shape memory technology, etc., and is easy to fold and difficult to tear. Various forming means can be employed. In addition, in the present invention, the vertical and horizontal dimensions of the base sheet 1 in the flat form, the number and arrangement interval of the pocket portions 2 in each column, as a fastening means for the side edges 1a and 1b of the base sheet joined in the square form In addition to the embodiment, various design changes can be made to the detailed configuration such as the structure of the engaging portion.
