Lung surfactant compositions are provided which can form a swelling phase when dispersed in a medium containing electrolytes. Hereby, a more active spreading of the lung surfactant into the alveoli can be obtained after administration to the lungs. Further provided are a pharmaceutical composition and a pharmaceutical kit comprising a lung surfactant composition as well as to a method for the treatment, prevention and/or diagnosis of respiratory distress syndrome or other pulmonary diseases that are associated with a deficiency of a lung surfactant.

Lung surfactant compositions with dynamic swelling behavior

A pulmonary surfactant formulation for instillation and oral application, containing at least 0.1% by weight of 2,3 -dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinone in addition to an effective amount of pulmonary surfactant and usual excipients.

Preparation of a pulmonary surfactant for instillation and oral application

2,3-Dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinone can be used for the topical and oral treatment of diseases of the skin and the mucosae of the mouth, the stomach, the bowels, the vagina and the lung.
