[Comparison of acute bronchiolytic effect of inhaling solutions of berodual vs salgim using a nebulizer in patients with chronic obstructive bronchitis and bronchial asthma]. / Sopostavlenie ostrogo bronkholiticheskogo éffekta ingaliatsii rastvorov veroduala i sal'gima s pomoshch'iu nebulai u bol'nykh khronicheskim obstruktivnym bronkhitom i bronkhial'noi astmoi.

AIM: Comparison of acute response to nebulizer inhalation of therapeutic doses of combined broncholitic berodual and domestic bronchoselective adrenomimetic salgim in patients with bronchial asthma (BA) and chronic obstructive bronchitis (COB). MATERIAL AND METHODS: The trial included 17 COB and 15 BA patients who for two consecutive days inhaled berodual and salgim solutions. Before and after the inhalations, subjective condition of the patients and parameters of the forced expiration were recorded. The sequence of the solutions use was determined randomly. RESULTS: Nebulizer inhalations of berodual and salgim relieved respiration subjectively in 83.9 and 93.5% patients, respectively. Significant bronchodilation was registered 30 min after inhalation of each of the solutions both in BA and COB. Berodual caused no side effects, salgim provoked short-term cough in 6(19.4%) patients. CONCLUSION: Nebulizer therapy of berodual or salgim is clinically and cost effective in moderate and severe obstruction in BA and COB patients.
