Abstract
The effect of ipratropium on exercise-induced bronchoconstriction (EIB) at cold or warm temperatures was studied. Although pulmonary function was better with ipratropium, its benefit was related to pre-exercise bronchodilation and not prevention of EIB. Ipratropium did not affect the augmented EIB in cold weather. These phenomena are not primarily mediated via cholinergic mechanisms.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
