Beclomethasone dipropionate in long-term treatment of asthma in children

K F Kerrebijn. J Pediatr. 1976 Nov.

Abstract

Beclomethasone dipropionate was found to be effective in reducing symptoms of asthma in children. There was no measurable influence on pulmonary function. An 18-month follow-up did not show untoward side effects on adrenal function, growth, serum electrolytes, and hepatic and renal functions with a dose of 100 mug three times daily. The treatment predisposes to the colonization with Candida albicans in the oropharynx.
