چکیده

We compared nebulised beclomethasone dipropionate suspension against placebo in 16 children with moderately severe asthma in double blind crossover fashion. Three children withdrew due to deterioration while on placebo. Of the remaining 13, eight were better on beclomethasone and five on placebo. These trends in favour of nebulised beclomethasone were not significant and do not suggest that the suspension is as effective as inhaled powder or aerosol topical steroid formulation.

Effects of HFA- and CFC-beclomethasone dipropionate on the bronchial response to methacholine (MCh) in mild asthma.

Metered inhalers using chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) propellents have been gradually replaced by new devices that use hydrofluoroalkanes (HFAs) as their propellents, which are less harmful to the environment. This reformulation led to a substantial improvement of the previous technologies applied to inhalation devices and of the physical characteristics of drugs delivered. In particular, inhaled cor...

Degradation products of beclomethasone dipropionate in human plasma.

The anti-inflammatory glucocorticosteroid beclomethasone dipropionate was found previously to degrade in human plasma at 37 degrees C to yield beclomethasone 17-monopropionate, beclomethasone 21-monopropionate, and beclomethasone together with three unknown species, D-1, D-2, and D-3. In this paper, we report the isolation of D-2 and D-3 by preparative HPLC and the elucidation of their structur...
