Galactosylated pro-drugs of non-steroidal anti-inflammatories with improved pharmacokinetic characteristics and reduced toxicity of the starting drug

The present invention relates to an aerosol composition containing a carrier agent capable of recognizing and binding to inflammatory and tumor foci mobilizing macrophages in their immediate environment, and an aerosol substrate, characterized in that the said carrier agent consists of a polysaccharide compound selected from the compound D 25, extracted from the membrane proteoglycans of the bacterium Klebsiella pneumoniae and having a molecular weight of 30.+-.0.10 Kd, and the compound oxidized D 25 in which the galactofuranoser residue (Gal.sub.f) of the linear polysaccharide chain of D 25 has been converted to arabinose, and their amide, ester or ether type derivatives, as well as their quaternary ammonium derivatives and salts, and also the derivatives obtained by grafting of phosphatides.
