Uses of Survanta 8ml - Beractant Intratracheal Suspension:
Survanta is used in two primary scenarios:
Treatment: For premature babies diagnosed with RDS after birth.
Prophylaxis: For premature babies born before 32 weeks of gestation who are at high risk of developing RDS.
Product Introduction:
Survanta 8ml Injection is classified as a pulmonary surfactant medication. It's prescribed for premature infants at risk of or suffering from respiratory distress syndrome (RDS), caused by inadequate lung surfactant.
Containing Beractant as its active ingredient, extracted from cow’s lungs, it aids breathing in newborns. It's effective for premature infants with a birth weight of 700g or more, born before 32 weeks of pregnancy, and requiring a windpipe tube for stabilization. Survanta supports normal breathing until the baby can produce its surfactant.
This medication is administered in hospitals under professional supervision. If allergic to Beractant or its components, avoid using Survanta 200mg injection. Pulmonary alveolar hemorrhage and endotracheal tube blockade may occur as side effects. Seek immediate medical attention if serious eye or heart symptoms arise while using this medication.

How Survanta 8ml - Beractant Intratracheal Suspension Works:
1. Survanta works by mimicking the natural surfactant produced in the lungs of healthy babies. 2. Survanta reduces the surface tension in the alveoli (air sacs) of the lungs, making it easier for the infant to breathe. 3. This helps prevent the alveoli from collapsing and improves oxygenation in premature babies with RDS.

However, alcohol consumption is generally discouraged in mothers who are breastfeeding or caring for premature infants due to potential developmental and health risks to the infant. PREGNANCY inform your doctor There's limited data on the safety of Survanta in pregnant women. It's only used in pregnant women in life-threatening situations where the potential benefits outweigh the risks.
