An effective liquid preparation achieves high bioavailability(BA) of physiologically active peptides or proteins, includingghrelins, that are administered as drugs. Also provided is a methodfor improving the BA of physiologically active peptides or proteins,including ghrelins, that are subcutaneously injected in aqueoussolutions. The liquid preparation contains: a physiologically activepeptide or protein, such as ghrelins, as an active ingredient; anacid solution including one or a combination of two or more selectedform the group consisting of acetic acid, lactic acid, phosphoricacid, glycine, citric acid, hydrochloric acid, propionic acid,butyric acid, benzoic acid and salts thereof; an alcohol; and apolar organic liquid including one or a combination of two or moreselected from the group consisting of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone,dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide and methylparaben.
