Abstract

Abstract : Fifty six children with chronic asthma were treated with the inhaled dry powder of salbutamol or the combination of inhaled and oral salbutamol. Over three months the combination provided a significantly greater sustained symptomatic relief from asthma. Side effects were minimal and did not result in any withdrawals from the study.
