Ipratropium bromide bronchodilator solution.

Bronchodilator effects of clemastine, ipratropium, bromide, and salbutamol in preschool children with asthma.

The bronchodilator activity in nebulised salbutamol, ipratropium bromide, clemastine, and a placebo was studied in 14 asthmatic children aged between 3 and 5 years. Changes in lung function were monitored by measuring peak expiratory flow rate and total respiratory resistance using a modification of the forced oscillation technique. Ipratropium bromide produced a degree of bronchodilation simil...
