4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Tyloxapol is an inhaled surfactant that assists in removing and liquefying and removing bronchopulmonary secretions with mucus and pus. Tyloxapol is administered either through nebulized solution or a stream of oxygen. Also investigated for use/treatment in cystic fibrosis and pediatric indications.


5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

It is used as a surfactant to aid liquefaction and removal of mucopurulent (containing mucus and pus) bronchopulmonary secretions. Tyloxapol also blocks plasma lipolytic activity, and thus the breakdown of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Surface-Active Agents

Agents that modify interfacial tension of water; usually substances that have one lipophilic and one hydrophilic group in the molecule; includes soaps, detergents, emulsifiers, dispersing and wetting agents, and several groups of antiseptics. (See all compounds classified as Surface-Active Agents.)


Detergents

Purifying or cleansing agents, usually salts of long-chain aliphatic bases or acids, that exert cleansing (oil-dissolving) and antimicrobial effects through a surface action that depends on possessing both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties. (See all compounds classified as Detergents.)


5.3 ATC Code

R - Respiratory system

R05 - Cough and cold preparations

R05C - Expectorants, excl. combinations with cough suppressants

R05CA - Expectorants

R05CA01 - Tyloxapol


5.4 Mechanism of Action

Tyloxapol, when injected IP, blocks plasma lipolytic activity, and thus the breakdown of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. It has also been shown to be inhibitor of lipoprotein lipase, thus preventing triglyceride uptake.
