The purpose of this study was to compare the bronchodilating effect of ipratropium bromide (IB) administered by a conventional Ingelheim powder device system (IPI) and by a metered dose inhaler (MDI) in children and adolescents with stable bronchial asthma. Seventy patients, aged 7 to 16 years, with stable bronchial asthma from our outpatient clinic were tested for bronchial responsiveness to inhaled IB.
