Bronchodilator, Terbutaline, in Asthma
subnormal responses found in patients given interriittent COT ticosteroid therapy by Malone et al. (1970). This finding, together with the satisfactory clinical response in these patients with severe disease, suggests that a therapeutic trial of depot tetracosactrin in a dose of 0-5 mg twice weekly should be considered for the control of disease requiring steroid therapy over a prolonged period...

متن کاملBreathing therapies and bronchodilator use in asthma.
T reatments involving the manipulation of breathing are commonly used in routine practice by physiotherapists and other practitioners in a variety of clinical settings yet, despite decades of use, there is no robust evidence base to confirm the effectiveness of these activities. Practical and logistic difficulties exist in the design and execution of the randomised controlled clinical trials re...
متن کاملLatrophilin receptors: novel bronchodilator targets in asthma
BACKGROUND Asthma affects 300 million people worldwide. In asthma, the major cause of morbidity and mortality is acute airway narrowing, due to airway smooth muscle (ASM) hypercontraction, associated with airway remodelling. However, little is known about the transcriptional differences between healthy and asthmatic ASM cells. OBJECTIVES To investigate the transcriptional differences between ...
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...
