Popis: | While it is recognized that beta-blockers can exacerbate asthma symptoms in older children and adults, there are few descriptions of a similar effect in infants. We describe three infants who developed wheeze during treatment with a beta-blocker for infantile hemangiomas and conclude that physicians should inquire about respiratory symptoms in this group of children. |
