Abstract
A medical composition is here disclosed which comprises a hydroxy acid-based oligomer (A) and a drug (B), wherein the hydroxy acid-based oligomer (A) is an oligomer in which the carboxylic acid-terminals are at least partially esterified, and the oligomer (A) has a function of becoming pH 5 to 8 when administered into an organism, and the oligomer (A) shows fluidity at 25° C. This composition sustainedly releases the drug (B) to deliver it into an organism by a syringe or the like, and scarcely gives rise to irritation, inflammation or the like.
