Bronchodilator Therapy in Obstructive Lung Disease
Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 1985In recent years the management of patients with obstructive lung disease has been greatly simplified by the introduction of highly selective long-acting beta adrenergic agonists, slow release theophylline preparations and locally active anticholinergic agents. The beta adrenergic compounds are the most potent and many feel that they should be the first

The major forms of obstructive lung disease are bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is characterized by a predominantly functional bronchial obstruction that is almost entirely reversible, at least at early stages; COPD exposes structural changes and deficits of the respiratory tract, including the lung tissue ...

An estimated 1 in 3,000 to 1 in 4,000 persons in the general population have a diagnosis of interstitial lung disease (ILD), and ILDs account for about 15% of all consultations for general pulmonologists. These diseases encompass a group of heterogeneous lung conditions characterized by diffuse involvement of the lung parenchyma and pulmonary ...

Unlike the fibrotic conditions, obstructive lung diseases may have a more indolent course, and so timing of listing and transplantation becomes increasingly relevant. Given the variable
