Abstract

A stabilized dry S-adenosyl-L-methionine preparation is obtained by incorporating about 1 - 10 parts by weight of lithium in the form of a salt with 100 parts by weight of S-adenosyl-L-methionine or a low-toxicity salt thereof. According to the invention, instability of S-adenosyl-L-methionine or a salt thereof is substantially eliminated. The stabilized dry preparation is very useful as medical drugs and reagents for biochemical research.
