Intranasal ipratropium bromide for the common cold

Ipratropium bromide bronchodilator solution.

Anisocoria with high dose ipratropium bromide inhaler.

I bromide is an atropine derived anti-cholinergic bronchodilator used in obstructive lung diseases. Anisocoria mainly caused by the direct effect of nebulized ipratropium bromide via a leaking mask has been well described in the literature.1,2 However, anisocoria induced by systemic absorption after long-term use of high dose ipratropium inhaler is not well reported. We report a case of a 24-ye...

Ineffectiveness of ipratropium bromide in acute bronchiolitis.

In a double blind randomised trial, we found no evidence that nebulised ipratropium bromide was of clinical benefit in acute bronchiolitis.

Effects of Inhaled Albuterol and Ipratropium Bromide

Many patients treated with ipratropium bromide are elderly males in whom prostatic hypertrophy is common and in these circumstances, large doses should be used with caution.
