Research progress in ginsenoside Rg3 dosage form / 国际药学研究杂志

ABSTRACT

Ginsenoside Rg3,the active ingredient of ginseng with obvious anti-tumor effect,can effectively inhibit the growth of lung cancer,gastric cancer,liver cancer,colon cancer and breast cancer,and improve the immunity. However,ginsenoside Rg3 has poor water solubility with slow absorption and rapid elimination,which leads to low plasma concentration and low bioavailability. Thus,how to overcome its low solubility and improve its bioavailability has become an important research area. In this paper ,the dos-age forms of ginsenoside Rg3 are reviewed by consulting relevant publications.
