摘要:
A 5±-androstane-3²,5,6²-triol injection and its preparation are disclosed. The injection uses hydroxypropyl-²-cyclodextrin as a solubilizing agent and the active ingredient is present in a part by weight ratio of 1-20:40-500 to the hydroxypropyl-²-cyclodextrin. The injection may also comprise 1ˆ¼100 parts of an isotonic adjusting agent, 0ˆ¼200 parts of a freeze drying filler, and 0ˆ¼2000 parts of a solvent. The preparation method comprises dissolving hydroxypropyl-²-cyclodextrin solution, 5±-androstane-3²,5,6²-triol and soluble excipients in water for injection in sequence to obtain a raw injection solution, and subjecting the raw injection solution to decolorization, depyrogenation, filtration and sterilization to obtain the injection. Drying the filtrate yields a solid for injection.
摘要:
Use of 5α-androstane-3β,5,6β-triol and analogs thereof in the preparation of a drug for the prophylaxis or treatment of an altitude sickness caused by hypobaric hypoxia is provided, so as to provide a new drug for the prophylaxis or treatment of an altitude sickness. Researches revealed that 5α-androstane-3β,5,6β-triol treatment can effectively reduce vasogenic edema of brain tissue of Macaca fascicularis caused by hypobaric hypoxia, reduce the increased cerebral water content, and protect from neuronal vacuolar degeneration caused by hypobaric hypoxia, therefore it can improve neurological dysfunctions caused by hypobaric hypoxia and is useful in prophylaxis or treatment of an altitude sickness.
