[The possible effect of a ketotifen preparation on beta-receptor blockade]
Abstract
Parallel clinico-pharmacological studies were carried out of ketotifen action in patients with atopic bronchial asthma and in an experimental model of beta-adrenergic blockade in guinea pigs. The results revealed that ketotifen acts on the beta-adrenergic blockade in the patients with atopic bronchial asthma and in the experimental model in guinea pigs. The ketotifen action on beta-adrenergic blockade resembles that of glucocorticosteroids in efficiency.
