The invention provides a solid preparation having a quick and pH-independent dissolution with an excellent bioavailability for a drug that is otherwise sharply depressed in solubility with pH elevation. This solid preparation contains granules each comprising a fine particulate core coated with a solid solution comprising a drug which is pH-dependent in solubility and may be released from an enteric base-containing composition at low pH and an enteric base.
