Levoleucovorin is a folate analog and the pharmacologically active levo-isomer of d,l-leucovorin. The chemical name of levoleucovorin calcium is calcium (6S)-N-{4-[[(2-amino-5-formyl-1,4,5,6,7,8-hexahydro-4-oxo-6-pteridinyl)methyl] amino]benzoyl}-L-glutamate mixed hydrates. The molecular formula is C 20 H 21 CaN 7 O 7 ●nH 2 O (n = 3.2 to 5.8) and the molecular weight is 569.1 to 616.0. The molecular structure is: Levoleucovorin injection, for intravenous use is supplied as a colorless to faint yellow solution of either 175 mg levoleucovorin in 17.5 mL or 250 mg levoleucovorin in 25 mL per single-dose vial. Each mL contains 10 mg levoleucovorin (equivalent to 10.8 mg levoleucovorin calcium (as mixed hydrates)) and 8.3 mg sodium chloride. Sodium hydroxide is used for pH adjustment to pH 8.2 (6.5 to 8.5).
