Abstract

The efficacy of jet nebulized beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP) in the management of asthma was evaluated in 18 children, 2-26 months old (mean 10 months). The children were selected on the basis of the severity of their symptoms and the lack of effect of conventional treatment. The effect of BDP was evaluated by comparing clinical data before and after the initiation of treatment. Fifteen of the 18 patients experienced a significant clinical improvement during treatment with BDP. BDP "nebulizer solution" is a valuable contribution to the management of severe asthma in young asthmatics.
