Leucovorin Calcium (Calcium folinate) Information
Leucovorin calcium, which contains folinic acid, is a form of vitamin B9 used in several serious medical situations. It is commonly given as a “rescue” medication after high-dose methotrexate to protect healthy cells, to treat folate deficiency, to reduce side effects of certain chemotherapy drugs, and to improve the effect of fluorouracil (5-FU) in some cancers. It is also used to treat certain types of anemia caused by folate deficiency. Leucovorin can be taken as oral tablets or given by injection (intravenous or intramuscular), depending on the condition. After methotrexate, the dosing schedule is exact to help the body safely clear the drug.
The mechanism of action of Leucovorin involves bypassing the body’s need to activate folic acid. It provides a form of folate that the body can use directly. This helps cells make DNA and repair themselves. After methotrexate, Leucovorin replenishes folate in healthy cells, reducing toxicity. When combined with 5-FU, it stabilizes the drug and makes it more effective against cancer.
