Abstract

Objective: To investigate the stability of magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate (Mg IG) injection solution when mixed with reduced glutathione (GSH) injection solution at room temperature. Method: High-performance liquid chromatography was used to determine the concentration changes of Mg IG injection solution mixed with GSH injection solution in 5% and 10% glucose solutions. Results: No significant changes in concentration were observed within 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 4 hours after mixing the Mg IG injection solution with the GSH injection solution. Conclusion: Mg IG injection solution can be mixed with GSH injection solution in 5% and 10% glucose solutions and should be used within 4 hours.
