  • Title: A comparison between aerosol and inhaled powder administration of fenoterol in adult asthmatics.
    Author: Harris R, Rothwell RP.
    Journal: N Z Med J; 1981 Dec 09; 94(697):421-2. PubMed ID: 7038565.
    Abstract:
    Eleven adult asthmatics were given fenoterol either as a metered aerosol dose or as an inhaled powder with appropriate controls, in a randomised double-blind fashion. The increase in FEV1 was the same after both dosage forms and no side effects occurred indicating that powder inhalation is a safe and effective alternative to aerosol inhalation in the treatment of asthma with sympathomimetics.
