Fenoterol reduces the stress of the musculature of the bronchi. Prevents repeated spasms, which provoke histamine, methacholine, fresh air and allergens of various types. Taking medication releases the inflammatory process from the cells of the mediators, and in high doses the drug is able to strengthen the mucociliary transport. Also the component actively stimulates the respiratory process.

Fenoterol affects the work of the heart. Strengthens the frequency and strength of contractions, where the activation of β2-adrenergic receptors of the cardiac system takes place, and if there is a significant excess of the dose, there is a pressure on stimulation of β1-adrenergic receptors.

Anhydrous ipratropium bromide acts as a blocker of m-holinoretseptorov. Cleans spasm of the bronchi, which is closely related to the activity of the vagus nerve. Reduces the secretion of glands of various genesis, including bronchial.

The introduction of the component with the help of inhalation forms bronchodilation. Does not cause negative effects on the mucus of the respiratory tract, mucociliary clearance or gas exchange.

Interaction of active substances helps to create a bronchodilator effect, which is obtained by the action of various mechanisms. The effect of treating bronchopulmonary disease is increasing.

special instructions

The use of Berodual for inhalations obliges patients to monitor their health. If dyspnea occurs, seek medical attention immediately. In some cases with chronic obstructive form of the disease, the periodic use of inhalations may prove to be more fruitful than the course application.

Persons suffering from severe bronchial asthma should remember to conduct and increase the intensity of therapeutic procedures to monitor the inflammatory processes of the bronchopulmonary system and to control the course of the disease.

Continuous use of medicines containing beta2-adrenergics, for example, Berodual, to suppress bronchial obstruction in some cases provokes worsening of the disease, so it is dangerous to increase the recommended dose. To prevent this situation, the patient's treatment regimen for a positive inhalation exposure is reviewed.

Joint use of Berodual with sympathomimetic bronchodilators is performed only under strict medical control.

Everyone should carefully read the instructions and consult a doctor before using the inhalation solution. When using the drug, avoid contact with the eyes. This can provoke the development of glaucoma.

The solution should be inhaled through a special mouthpiece of a nebulizer or a special mask for inhalation.

Interaction with other drugs

"Berodual" (drops) in combination with various beta-adrenomimetics increase the bronchodilator properties of the drug. A similar effect is observed in complex treatment with anticholinergics and xanthine derivatives.

Reduction of bronchodilating characteristics of "Berodual" is possible when combined with beta-blockers. The combination of the drug with xanthine derivatives increases hypokalemia. This feature should be taken into account by persons with a serious stage of bronchodilator disease.

The appearance of hypokalemia, in turn, provokes the appearance of arrhythmia in patients using digoxin during treatment, and hypoxia increases the negative effect on the heart rhythm. In this situation, it is advised to maintain constant control over the potassium level in the blood.

A drug is presumptively prescribed for people taking MAO inhibitors and antidepressants for the tricyclic group. Such medicines increase the influence of beta-adrenergic drugs. The inhalation process of halogenated hydrocarbon anesthetics enhances the effect of preparations containing beta-adrenergens on cardiac function. The result of therapeutic treatment can be increased using cromoglycic acid and glucocorticosteroids.
