title: [Interferon as a bronchospastic factor in patients with bronchial asthma].
abstract: Twenty three asthmatics were examined during the symptoms free period. Each subject inhaled aerolised human interferon alpha (Hu IFN-alpha, Le) in increasing doses 4000 and 8000 units. IFN inhalation provoked significant decline in FEV1 (by 9.9% after the 1st dose and 6.6% after the 2nd dose on average). This results indicate that inhaled interferon induces bronchospastic reactions in asthmatics.
