[Fading of the provocation effect following inhaled provocation with carbachol]
Abstract
The results of the present study aimed at establishing the subsidence of the effect of inhalative provocation with carbachol show that no ceiling activity is reached. Rather, following a maximum effect that is achieved after approximately 2 minutes, spontaneous subsidence of the provocation-related changes occurs. The average duration of this subsidence to below the level of change that is considered significant for the respective measured parameter was between 20 and 25 minutes.
