title: Terbutaline in the treatment of chronic urticaria.
abstract: Eighteen patients with chronic urticaria were evaluated concerning the benefit of oral sympathomimetic therapy. No significant differences could be found between the sympathomimetic agent (terbutaline) and a placebo in the various clinical parameters evaluated. The authors conclude that the efficacy of this drug is doubtful in the treatment of chronic urticaria.
