Curosurf generic name?

What is the generic name of Curosurf?

Curosurf is the brand name for beractant (a synthetic/animal-derived lung surfactant product) used to treat neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS). [1]

Why do brands like Curosurf show up as different “generic” names?

For some older or specialty biologic/drug products, “generic” naming in common use can be confusing because substitutes may be marketed under different brand names while using the same active ingredient (or may be regulated as different product types). In Curosurf’s case, the active ingredient tied to the brand name is beractant. [1]
