Bronchospasmolytic Effects of Orciprenaline and Fenoterol Powder Inhalation in Anaesthetised Dogs

Abstract: Marked and long-lasting bronchospasmolytic effects with some cardiovascular side effects, have been demonstrated in anaesthetised dogs following inhalation of a maximum dose of 1.5 mg orciprenaline sulphate, or of 0.2 mg fenoterol hydrobromide, with glucose as vehicle, administered in powder form in powder inhaler capsules.

“…Improvements in lung function in the procaterol group could be explained by several possible mechanisms. First, the bronchodilator effect of procaterol is known to be greater than that of oxitropium in vitro [7,18,19]. The lack of bronchodilator effect of the oxitropium in the present study might be attributed to its relatively weak efficacy at the tested dose [18,19].…”

The lack of bronchodilator effect of the oxitropium in the present study might be attributed to its relatively weak efficacy at the tested dose [18,19]. Recently, tiotropium, an anticholinergic agent with a much stronger action and longer duration than oxitropium, has been available for the treatment of COPD [2,20].…”

“…Therefore, in the present study we looked at the bronchodilating effect of OB, known to be 1.5 times more potent as a bronchodilator than ipratropium bromide and having a 30% longer duration of action than ipratropium bromide [1,17,21]. In this study three different doses of OB were administered and the bronchodilating effect was compared to placebo and fenoterol.…”
