Abstract:
Bambuterol, a carbamate prodrug of terbutaline as a 5, 10, or 20-mg tablet, was given once every evening to patients with asthma in a randomized double-blind crossover study. Twenty milligrams improved pulmonary functions over 24 hours; 5 and 10 mg did not. Few side effects were observed.
