    Abstract:
    Intrapulmonary administration of glucocorticoids and low-energy laser radiation were used in the treatment of infection-dependent bronchial asthma in the phase of exacerbation. To estimate the efficacy of the combined method suggested, the parameters of external respiration, cellular, humoral and local immunity were determined, the provocation inhalation tests with acetylcholine and histamine and exercise tests were performed. The results of the treatment and subsequent follow-up data have shown that the combined use of local (endolymphatic) administration of steroids makes it possible to reduce immunological disorders, to decrease bronchial reactivity, to prolong the disease remission.
