The effectiveness use of the combined inhalation glucocorticosteroids in the therapy of bronchial asthma
The effectiveness and comfort of using combined inhalation glucococrticosteroids in the patients with uncontrolled bronchial asthma of medium degree and mixed form was studied. As the reaction of application of different combined inhalation glucococrticosteroids for treating bronchial asthma of the same degree can be different, it is necessary to select not only the substance but also the form of using the preparations. So, for choosing the most effective preparation it was carried out an experiment with 40 patients aged from 18 to 65 with uncontrolled bronchial asthma of medium degree. The authors have excluded patients with: hyper sensibility to preparation components, acute infections of airways, pregnancy and lactation, presence a serious accompanying illness form. In the process of observation 2 patients dropped out of the experiment for different reasons. As a result 38 patients took part in research. The patients were divided into 2 groups. These patients received combined inhalation glucocorticosteroids in equivalent doses taking into account anti-inflammatory activity of glucocorticosteroid active ingredient and features of the inhalation device. The first group of patients used Foster aerosol inhalation in the dose of 100 mcg+ 6 mcg/1 dose: container 120 doses. The second group of patients received Foradil Kombi on form of gelatinous capsules, size 3 mg+12 mcg/ 1 dose together with powder for inhalations and included with the device for inhalation. Clinical efficacy of the treatment was assessed after 4 months of treatment and the positive result was detected in the second group.
