Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) is the main lipid component of surfactant, it reduces surface tension, preventing collapse of the alveoli. It is used in the treatment of neonatal respiratory distress. It is an important constituent of the number of surfactant, such as Curosurf®, Lucinactant, Exosurf. Porcine-derived lung surfactant Curosurf® (poractant alfa) intratracheal suspension is indicated for the rescue treatment of respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) in premature infants. Each milliliter of suspension contains 80 mg of poractant alfa that includes 76 mg of phospholipids and 1 mg of protein of which 0.45 mg is SP-B and 0.59 mg is SP-C. The amount of phospholipids is calculated from the content of phosphorus and contains 55 mg of phosphatidylcholine of which 30 mg is dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine. Curosurf reduces mortality and pneumothoraces associated with RDS. Lucinactant is a new synthetic peptide-containing surfactant for intratracheal use. It contains sinapultide, phospholipids (dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, DPPC and palmitoyloleoyl phosphatidylglycerol, POPG) and a fatty acid (palmitic acid). Intended for the prevention of RDS in premature infants at high risk for RDS. FDA approved on March 6, 2012. Exosurf, approved by FDA in 1990, is a protein-free surfactant composed of 85% dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, 9% hexadecanol, and 6% tyloxapol by weight.

Pipotiazine (Piportil), also known as Pipothiazine, is a typical antipsychotic of the phenothiazine class used in the United Kingdom and other countries for the treatment of schizophrenia. Its properties are similar to those of chlorpromazine. Piportil® L4 (pipotiazine palmitate) is the palmitic ester of pipotiazine, a piperidine phenothiazine with antipsychotic properties and weak sedative activity. The esterification of pipotiazine is responsible for its prolonged duration of action. The onset of action appears usually within the first 2 to 3 days after injection and the effects of the drug on psychotic symptoms are significant within one week. Improvement in symptomatology lasts from 3 to 6 weeks, but adequate control may frequently be maintained with one injection every 4 weeks. However, in view of the variations in individual response, careful supervision is required throughout treatment. Piportil L4 has actions similar to those of other phenothiazines. Among the different phenothiazine derivatives, Piportil L4 appears to be less sedating and to have a weak propensity for causing hypotension or potentiating the effects of CNS depressants and anesthetics. However, it produces a high incidence of extrapyramidal reactions.

Dextramycin ((S, S)-p-Chloramphenicol) is an optical isomer of Chloramphenicol, a broad-spectrum antibiotic with historical veterinary use in all major food-producing animals. The drug is biosynthesized by the soil organism Streptomyces venezuelae and several other actinomycetes and is chemically synthesized for commercial use. Chloramphenicol occurs in the meta-configuration and in the para-configuration and it contains two chiral centers thus in total eight different isomeric configurations exist. All para-stereoisomers are biologically active and 0.5% solution of Dextramycin shows antimicrobial activity. Currently, Chloramphenicol has banned for use in all food-producing animals.

Ipronidazole is an antiprotozoal drug of the nitroimidazole class used in veterinary medicine. Ipronidazole (2-isopropyl-1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole) is used for the treatment of histomoniasis in turkeys and in swine dysentery.
Retonol, also known as Vitamin A1, is a vitamin found in food and used as a dietary supplement. It is used to treat and prevent vitamin A deficiency. It is also used to prevent further issues in those who have measles. Retinol is used as a metabolic precursor of retinoic acid to treat skin-related conditions, such as cellulite, skin aging, photodamage.
