ABSTRACT
The role of two calcium channel blockers, nifedipine and verapamil was investigated in patients of bronchial asthma. Both the drugs given orally produced an insignificant rise in PEFR, FEF25-75% and FEV1. Given along with terbutaline, however, these drugs produced significantly greater increase in PEFR, FEF25-75% and FEV1 as compared to patients receiving terbutaline alone. The two calcium channel blockers also inhibited the terbutaline induced tremors and palpitation.
