Abstract
A pharmaceutical composition is described as well as the use of a starch ester for the production of such a pharmaceutical composition for peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) in particular for continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Starch esters which are particularly suitable are e.g. acetyl starch with a molecular weight (Mw) of 100000 to 200000 Daltons and a molar substitution of 0.3 to 0.5. Using the compositions according to the invention it is possible to carry out peritoneal dialysis without damaging the peritoneal epithelium. In addition it is not stored in the organs.
