METHOD FOR STABILIZATION OF ISOXAZOLE COMPOUND

摘要

3-[(1S)-1-(2-fluorobiphenyl-4-yl)ethyl]-5-[[amino(morpholin-4-yl)methylene]amino]isoxazole is an isoxazole compound useful as a therapeutic agent for an autoimmune disease. The isoxazole compound can be stabilized by using an antioxidant such as a pyrosulfurous acid salt, a bisulfite salt, a sulfurous acid salt or dibutylhydroxytoluene. A pharmaceutical composition for oral administration comprising the isoxazole compound and the antioxidant is an excellent pharmaceutical composition, since the isoxazole compound contained in the composition is stabilized.
