Folinic acid disodium  (Synonyms: Leucovorin disodium)

Folinic acid (Leucovorin) disodium is a biological folic acid and is a forms of vitamin B9. Folinic acid disodium is generally administered along with Methotrexate (MTX) (HY-14519) as a rescue agent to decrease MTX-induced toxicity. Folinic acid disodium and Sfluorouracil adjuvant chemotherapy shows effective in colon carcinoma^[1][2][3].

Folinic acid disodium (5, 50 µg/ml; 40 h) significantly reduces % micronucleated binucleated cells (MNBN) (40%-68%) and % aberrant cells (Abs) (36%-77%) in V79 cells that were treated with MTX at five different concentrations 5–100 mg/ml for 6 h^[1].

MCE has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.

Folinic acid disodium (7.0 mg/kg; intraperitoneal injection; every second day; for 3 weeks; Balb/c young growing male mice) treatment following Methotrexate (MTX) administration appears to reverse this growth inhibition (Chronic administration of MTX induces suppression of skeletal growth in mice)^[2].
