According to the invention there is provided a sterile, pyrogen-free, ready-to-use solution of an anthracycline glycoside, especially doxorubicin, which consists essentially of a physiologically acceptable salt of an anthracycline glycoside dissolved in a physiologically acceptable solvent therefor, which has not been reconstituted from a lyophilizate and which has a pH of from 2.5 to 6.5. The solution of the invention is particularly advantageous for the administration by injection of the anthracycline glycoside drugs. e.g. doxorubicin, in the treatment of both human and animal tumors.

Injectable ready-to-use solutions containing an antitumor anthracycline glycoside

A sealed glass container containing therein a stable, injectable, sterile, pyrogen-free doxorubicin anti-tumor composition in a solution which consists essentially of a physiologically acceptable salt of doxorubicin dissolved in a physiologically acceptable solvent therefor, wherein said solution has not been reconstituted from a lyophilizate, and wherein said solution has a pH of from 2.5-3.5 and a concentration of said doxorubicin of from 0.1 to 100 mg/ml.
