The urobilinogen composition of the present invention can be produced, for example, by dissolving bilirubin in an alkaline solution or the like, adding a Raney catalyst while reacting with cooling, and lyophilizing the filtrate. Here, “while cooling” means that the reaction is carried out at a temperature at which the urobilinogen composition obtained by adding the Raney catalyst and reacting with each other does not immediately become another. Of course, the conditions for the Raney catalyst and the conditions for freeze-drying are not particularly limited. Further, an excipient may be added before lyophilization as long as it does not participate in the reaction. The urobilinogen composition containing the excipient has a good finish after freeze-drying. The excipient can be appropriately selected and used from sugars, polysaccharides and their decomposition products, proteins, synthetic polymer compounds and the like. The present invention also includes within its scope urobilinogen compositions containing such excipients.
