Abstract

Disclosed are eutectic form A of Elagolix and pyrimethamine, a preparation method therefor and a use thereof. Using Cu-Kα radiation, eutectic form A has characteristic peaks represented by a 2θ degree at 8.1±0.2°, 12.2±0.2°, 13.3±0.2° and 21.1±0.2° in an X-ray powder diffraction. Eutectic form A has a high purity, a good light radiation stability, a high temperature stability, a high humidity stability and an accelerated stability, is easy to store, and has a slow moisture absorption under the condition of relatively low humidity, wherein the weight gain of eutectic form A by moisture absorption is not more than 1.08% when the relative humidity increases from 0 to 60% RH. Production conditions for eutectic form A are easy to control, same has a simple preparation process and a stable quality, and is easy to industrially produce on a large-scale.
