ABSTRACT
The utility of the ambroxol in the conventional treatment of neonates with of respiratory distress syndrome, was evaluated in two groups of newborns. The group «A» received ambroxol to 15 mg/kg/dose/12 h and the conventional treatment and the group «B» received exclusively the conventional treatment. The evolution evaluated by Silverman-Andersen, SpO
2 and thorax radiographic.
The group «A» (n = 13) shown an improvement in the clinic and radiography findings, in the first 24 h, with increase of SpO
2 (p = ‹ 0.05); the ventilatory attendance was of 14.3% and there was not fatalities. In the group «B» (n = 11) does not present differences in the clinical evolution and SpO
2; the attendance ventilatory was done in 4 cases, all of them died.
In conclusion, ambroxol could be recommended in the conventional treatment of respiratory distress syndrome.
