Bronchodilator tolerance: the impact of increasing bronchoconstriction.
Chronic exposure to beta-agonists causes tolerance to their bronchodilator effects, which is best demonstrated during acute bronchoconstriction. The aim of the present study was to assess whether tolerance becomes more evident with increasing bronchoconstriction, as might occur in acute asthma. In a randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study comprising 15 patients, the treatm...
متن کاملReversing acute bronchoconstriction in asthma: the effect of bronchodilator tolerance after treatment with formoterol.
Continuous treatment with a short-acting beta2-agonist can lead to reduced bronchodilator responsiveness during acute bronchoconstriction. This study evaluated bronchodilator tolerance to salbutamol following regular treatment with a long-acting beta2-agonist, formoterol. The modifying effect of intravenous corticosteroid was also studied. Ten asthmatic subjects (using inhaled steroids) partici...
متن کاملImpact of bronchodilator therapy on exercise tolerance in COPD
Exercise tolerance is an important parameter in patients with COPD and a primary goal of treatment is to reduce dyspnea to facilitate physical activities and improve health-related quality of life. This review examines the link between expiratory flow limitation and dyspnea to explain the rationale for the use of bronchodilators and review the characteristics of different types of exercise test...
متن کاملBronchodilator tolerance and rebound bronchoconstriction during regular inhaled beta-agonist treatment.
There is uncertainty about the development of airway tolerance to beta-agonists and the phenomenon of rebound bronchoconstriction on beta-agonist withdrawal. We have recently completed a study of the regular terbutaline and budesonide treatment in asthma. We report our observations on the effect of starting and stopping terbutaline treatment on morning and evening peak flows. The study was a ra...
