What is Calcium Folinate?

Therapeutic Class:

Active Ingredients: Calcium Folinate

Calcium Folinate, also called folinic acid or leucovorin calcium, is an adjuvant medication used in cancer chemotherapy. It is typically used to reduce the harmful effects of certain types of anticancer medications, such as methotrexate. Calcium Folinate is also used to treat some types of megaloblastic anemia.
