Abstract
Amorphous water soluble derivatives of cyclodextrins are potent, nontoxic solubilizers of drugs and lipids. Their use as excipients which enable effective oral administration of sex hormones is described. Furthermore, these com pounds were used intravenously as an active drug to assist an organism in unloading a toxic lipophile.
