PURPOSE: To provide the titled remedy containing specific amounts of choline phosphoglyceride, acidic phospholipid, fatty acid, and lipoprotein derived from the lung of mammals. n CONSTITUTION: The objective remedy for respiratory distress syndrome contains, as active components, (A) 50.6W85.0W/V%, based on the total weight, of a choline phosphoglyceride [e.g. 1,2-dipalmitoyl glycero-(3)-phosphocholine], (B) 4.5W 37.6W/V% of an acidic phospholipid (e.g. 1,2-diacyl-s,n-glycero-(3)-phosphoric acid), (C) 4.6W24.6W/V% of a fatty acid (e.g. plamitic acid), and (D) 0.1W 10.0W/V% of a lipoprotin (obtained from the lung of mammals). The amount of the agent to be administered per dose is 40W500mg of the surfactant for the baby of premature birth and 400W4,000mg of the surfactant for adult. n COPYRIGHT: (C)1984,JPO&Japio |
