The cerebrospinal fluid and intracranial pressure are two major reasons why central nervous system is so vulnerable to injuries. A composition and method for treating injured central nervous tissue, or preventing injury to central nervous system tissue is provided. The composition is comprised of a combination of colloidal osmotic agents and crystal osmotic agents. The method comprise of: a). Withdrawing cerebrospinal fluid from the subarachnoid spaces around the tissue to be treated or protected and b). Injecting the composition which is dissolved by patient's own cerebrospinal fluid into subarachnoid spaces. The treatment can be augmented with agents that suppress production of cerebrospinal fluid, or with other known neuroprotective agents.
