Abstract

The invention relates to active substance combinations which consist of at least one polypeptide with the biological action of fibroblast growth factors and of at least one cationic polyelectrolyte. These combinations permit improved dosage of the FGF activity. The invention also relates to a method of treating wounds, burns, skin ulcers, diabetic gangrene, mucosal ulcers and lesions, skin donation and transplantation sites, or surgical wounds by administering a peptide having FGF activity with an amount of cationic polyelectrolyte which is effective to decrease non-specific binding of the peptide having FGF activity.
