Abstract: The invention is related to water-soluble products and pharmaceutical formulations in solid or liquid form mainly for parenteral use. They consist of or comprise a therapeutically active substance (having low aqueous solubility and a substantial binding affinity to plasma proteins) and a plasma protein fraction in controlled aggregation state, whereby the said active substance and the said protein fraction are bound to each other by way of non-covalent bonds. It also covers processes for the preparation of the product and pharmaceutical formulation by dissolving the water-insoluble active substance in a water-miscible, pharmaceutically acceptable solvent, combining said solution with the aqueous solution of a plasma protein fraction in controlled aggregation state whereby a true solution is obtained containing the said active substance and the said protein fraction bound together by way of non-covalent bonds.
