Filter by:The purpose of this study was evaluation the efficacy of antiepileptic drug phenytoin (diphenine) in the treatment of bronchial asthma.
The purpose of this study is to compare the Symbicort® Turbuhaler® to both Pulmicort® Turbuhaler® and Bricanyl® Turbuhaler® for the treatment of asthma after discharge from the emergency room
The purpose of this study is to determine whether childhood atopic disease decrease or not after allowing allergic mothers intake of probiotic (Lactobacillus GG) in second trimester, followed by infant intake for 6 months after birth.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether oglemilast is safe and effective in the treatment of allergen-induced asthma.
The most commonly used drug for immediate relief of symptoms of asthma is the blue puffer, albuterol or salbutamol (Ventolin). Racemic albuterol is a mixture of two forms of albuterol which are mirror images of each other i.e. R-and S- isomers. The investigational treatments are R-albuterol and S-albuterol. R-albuterol ( levalbuterol) has been shown to have a slightly better bronchodilator effect as compared to the racemic albuterol and is well- tolerated in patients. However it is still not clear whether the S-isomer has no effect or has a harmful effect on the airways. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of the R- and S- isomers on allergen induced airway inflammation in subjects with mild atopic asthma. This will give us a better idea as to whether the routine use of levalbuterol is superior to racemic albuterol.
This study will determine the effectiveness of initiating a high-dose inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) or a leukotriene receptor antagonist (LTRA) in addition to an inhaled beta2-agonist (albuterol) at the onset of respiratory tract illness (RTI)-associated symptoms in increasing episode-free days among young children with recurrent severe wheezing.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether patients with asthma are better able to manage and control their symptoms by using one inhaler daily that both prevents as well as treats the symptoms of an asthma exacerbation.
This study will test the effectiveness of an investigational treatment for patients with ragweed-induced asthma, sometimes called fall seasonal asthma. The treatment being tested is a series of anti-ragweed shots. The purpose of the study is to determine whether a short series of injections with Amb a 1-immunostimulatory oligodeoxyribonucleotide conjugate (AIC) can cause a long-lasting reduction in the symptoms of asthma that are caused by fall hay fever allergies.
Asthma can be caused by a variety of factors, including tobacco smoke, allergens, and respiratory airway infections. Many people use inhaled corticosteroid medications to treat their symptoms. These medications, however, are not effective for everyone. Clarithromycin is an antibiotic that may effectively treat asthma in these individuals. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of clarithromycin at controlling asthma symptoms.
This will be a double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled study. 253 children were recruited and randomly assigned into one of 2 groups to receive either normal infant formula or formula with Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG. The primary aim is to assess the effect of early administration (from birth) of probiotics on the incidence of allergic sensitization, eczema, asthma and rhinitis.
