<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shelf-stable once daily fixed combination of a GLP-1 compound and a basal insulin compound with unchanged PK/PD properties of the combined peptides compared to the individual active components. <P>SOLUTION: This shelf-stable pharmaceutical composition, comprising a fixed combination of an insulinotropic GLP-1 compound and a basal insulin, contains at least 5 zinc ions per 6 basal insulin molecules. The pH is preferably around 7.4 to 8.2. Preferably, the composition further contains histidine as a zinc chelating agent. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
