An albumin preparation that prevents onset of hepatic encephalopathy caused by conventional amino acid preparations and enhances an effect of improving the symptoms is provided. The albumin preparation containing amino acids is characterized in that a content of albumin is 0.01 to 1.0 w/v %, a content of plurality of amino acids containing branched amino acid is 5 to 10 w/v %, a content of the branched amino acids is equal to or more than 30 w/w % on the basis of the content of total amino acids and further, the Fischer ratio (branched amino acid/[phenylalanine+tyrosine] (molar ratio)) is equal to or more than 20.

Amino acid-containing albumin preparation

Amino acid formulations for administration to human patients with liver disease comprise mixtures of essential amino acids combined in novel relative proportions, and preferably also include non-essential amino acids. In particular, the combined molar proportions of isoleucine, leucine, and valine are from 40 to 300 times the molar proportion of tryptophan and from 15 to 135 times the molar proportion of phenylalanine, or phenylalanine and tyrosine. The formulations may be adapted for either intravenous or oral administration, but the preferred method of administration is by hyperalimentation infusion. The formulations and method can be utilized to provide nutritional support for liver diseased patients while reducing the incidence and severity of hepatic encephalopathy, and/or as primary therapy for treatment of hepatic encephalopathy.
