Indoramin--an alpha adrenoreceptor antagonist for airway obstruction.
Indoramin, an alpha adrenoreceptor antagonist, was given in tablet form, in addition to regular salbutamol by aerosol, to 30 patients with airway obstruction. Indoramin produced a small increase in peak flow rate, no change in forced expiratory volume in one second and no improvement in symptoms. Troublesome unwanted effects occurred in six patients.
