To formulate the stable preparation of Gingko extract injection and to evaluate the stability of the preparation, Gingko extract aqueous solutions having various pH values were prepared and the stability of ginskoflavonglycoside (GFG) was investlfated by high performance liquid chromatography. The stability of GFG decreased as pH increased, while the water solubility of Gingko extract decreased as pH decreased. The optimal pH of the Gingko extract aqueous solution was found to be pH 6.5. The shelf life $(T_{90%})$ of the Gingko extract aqueous solution of pH 6.5 at $20^{\circ}C$ was extrapolated to be four years.
