[Comparative effect of terbutaline and adrenaline in the treatment of bronchial asthma].
The bronchodilating effect of terbutaline and of adrenaline were compared in 15 patients with ages from 6 to 17 years, having a clinical and functional diagnosis of bronchial asthma, but without signs of infection. The results showed an evident bronchodilating effect, similar in both drugs, with minimal cardiovascular effects following administration of terbutaline (p < 0.005).
