Abstract

Albuterol aerosol was an effective bronchodilator as reflected by indices of pulmonary function obtained from spirometry and flow volume curves; Compared with isoproterenol, there were minimal side effects even at the highest doses, and bronchodilation lasted significantly longer. In addition albuterol was successfully used by a patient with idiopathic hypertrophic subaortic stenosis who was unable to tolerate isoproterenol, as well as by some patients with idiosyncratic responses to isoproterenol; A few patients appeared to derive little benefit from either albuterol or isoproterenol.

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
