Absorption, Distribution and Excretion
After rapid intravenous administration, serum total tetrahydrofolate (total-THF) concentrations reached a mean peak of 1722 ng/mL. Serum (6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate concentrations reached a mean peak of 275 ng/mL and the mean time to peak was 0.9 hours. Urinary. Data can't be found. Data can't be found. Duration of action: All routes: 3 to 6 hours. Onset of action: Oral: 20 to 30 minutes. Intramuscular: 10 to 20 minutes. Intravenous: Less than 5 minutes. Crosses blood-brain barrier in moderate amounts; largely concentrated in liver. Elimination: Renal: 80-90%. Fecal: 5-8%. For more Absorption, Distribution and Excretion (Complete) data for LEUCOVORIN (10 total), please visit the HSDB record page. Metabolism / Metabolites Extensively converted to tetrahydrofolic derivatives. In vivo, leucovorin calcium is rapidly and extensively converted to other tetrahydrofolic acid derivatives including 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate, which is the major transport and storage form of folate in the body. /Leucovorin calcium/ Hepatic and intestinal mucosal, mainly to 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (active). After oral administration, leucovorin is substantially (greater than 90%) and rapidly (within 30 minutes) metabolized. Metabolism is less extensive (about 66% after intravenous and 72% after intramuscular administration) and slower with parenteral administration. Biological Half-Life The mean terminal half-life for total-THF and (6S)-5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate was 5.1 and 6.8 hours, respectively. Terminal half-life for total reduced folates: 6.2 hours. |

Effects During Pregnancy and Lactation
◉ Summary of Use during Lactation Leucovorin (folinic acid; 5-formyltetrahydrofolic acid) and its levo- isomer, levoleucovorin, are folic acid derivatives that are normal components of breastmilk. Because leucovorin and levoleucovorin are used as therapeutic agents with potentially toxic drugs such as fluorouracil or methotrexate, the LactMed record of the drug it is used with should be consulted. ◉ Effects in Breastfed Infants Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. ◉ Effects on Lactation and Breastmilk Relevant published information was not found as of the revision date. Protein Binding Does not bind human serum albumin. |

Pharmacodynamics
Levoleucovorin is actively and passively transported across cell membranes. In vivo, levoleucovorin is converted to 5-methyltetrahydrofolic acid (5-methyl-THF), the primary circulating form of active reduced folate. Levoleucovorin and 5-methyl-THF are polyglutamated intracellularly by the enzyme folylpolyglutamate synthetase. Folylpolyglutamates are active and participate in biochemical pathways that require reduced folate. |

Note: Listed below are some common formulations that may be used to formulate products with low water solubility (e.g. < 1 mg/mL), you may test these formulations using a minute amount of products to avoid loss of samples.
Injection Formulations
Injection Formulation 1: DMSO : Tween 80： Saline = 10 : 5 : 85 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO stock solution → 50 μL Tween 80 → 850 μL Saline)(e.g. IP/IV/IM/SC) *Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH ₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Injection Formulation 2: DMSO : PEG300 ：Tween 80 : Saline = 10 : 40 : 5 : 45 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 400 μLPEG300 → 50 μL Tween 80 → 450 μL Saline) Injection Formulation 3: DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90 (i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL Corn oil) Example: Take the Injection Formulation 3 (DMSO : Corn oil = 10 : 90) as an example, if 1 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can take 100 μL 25 mg/mL DMSO stock solution and add to 900 μL corn oil, mix well to obtain a clear or suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

Injection Formulation 4: DMSO : 20% SBE-β-CD in saline = 10 : 90 [i.e. 100 μL DMSO → 900 μL (20% SBE-β-CD in saline)] Oral Formulations
Oral Formulation 1: Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na (carboxymethylcellulose sodium) Oral Formulation 2: Suspend in 0.5% Carboxymethyl cellulose Example: Take the Oral Formulation 1 (Suspend in 0.5% CMC Na) as an example, if 100 mL of 2.5 mg/mL working solution is to be prepared, you can first prepare 0.5% CMC Na solution by measuring 0.5 g CMC Na and dissolve it in 100 mL ddH2O to obtain a clear solution; then add 250 mg of the product to 100 mL 0.5% CMC Na solution, to make the suspension solution (2.5 mg/mL, ready for use in animals).

| Preparing Stock Solutions | 1 mg | 5 mg | 10 mg | |
| 1 mM | 2.1122 mL | 10.5610 mL | 21.1220 mL | |
| 5 mM | 0.4224 mL | 2.1122 mL | 4.2244 mL | |
| 10 mM | 0.2112 mL | 1.0561 mL | 2.1122 mL |
*Note: Please select an appropriate solvent for the preparation of stock solution based on your experiment needs. For most products, DMSO can be used for preparing stock solutions (e.g. 5 mM, 10 mM, or 20 mM concentration); some products with high aqueous solubility may be dissolved in water directly. Solubility information is available at the above Solubility Data section. Once the stock solution is prepared, aliquot it to routine usage volumes and store at -20°C or -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze and thaw cycles.
