Dose-response effect of sodium cromoglycate pressurised aerosol in exercise induced asthma.
The effects of 2, 10, and 20 mg of sodium cromoglycate delivered by aerosol were compared with those of placebo in a double blind study in 11 patients with extrinsic and exercise induced asthma. The effect of nebulised sodium cromoglycate delivered through a Wright nebuliser (estimated dose 12 mg) was also studied. Patients exercised on a treadmill for six to eight minutes at submaximal work lo...
متن کاملOptimizing aerosol delivery by pressurized metered-dose inhalers.
The modern era of aerosol therapy began with the introduction of the Medihaler Epi in 1956, after a 13-year-old asthmatic told her father, an officer in the Riker company, that asthma medications should be as convenient to use as hair spray and she complained that the bulb atomizer leaked in her school bag. Since then, advances in technology have made aerosol delivery much more efficient, so th...
متن کاملMetered-dose inhalers and dry powder inhalers in aerosol therapy.
Inhaled drug delivery is an important part of the armamentarium of clinicians caring for patients with pulmonary disease. An increasing variety of metered-dose inhalers and dry powder inhalers are becoming available. This has been driven by the development of new formulations and the impending ban on chlorofluorocarbon propellants. The result is a proliferation of devices, resulting in a confus...
متن کاملDelivery of therapeutic aerosols to intubated babies.
Delivery of drug aerosols to the lungs of ventilated neonates by metered dose inhaler and spacer (Aerochamber) and ultrasonic nebuliser (Pentasonic) was assessed using sodium cromoglycate. The mean proportion of a known intratracheal dose of sodium cromoglycate excreted in the urine of four intubated infants was 37.5%. After assuming that 38% of the sodium cromoglycate aerosol reaching the neon...
متن کاملDose-response study of sodium cromoglycate in exercise-induced asthma.
Ten patients with exercise-induced asthma participated in a single-blind dose-response study comparing the protective effect of inhaled sodium cromoglycate in increasing concentrations from 2 to 40 mg/ml. Saline was used as a control. Effects were assessed from the mean maximal percentage fall in forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1) after the patients had run on a treadmill for eight m...
