Ipratropium bromide in the treatment of cough – new perspective Review article
Main Article Content
Abstract
Acute cough is a very common symptom, most often caused by upper respiratory tract infections. In most cases, it is self-limiting, but sometimes it requires the use of medications. Whereas, chronic cough may be a symptom of many different diseases, requires causal treatment. Frequently used antitussives and mucoactive drugs medications include ipratropium bromide. It is recommended in inhaled form in acute cough associated with acute infections of the upper and lower respiratory tract, in post-infectious cough and in chronic cough associated with chronic bronchitis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Additionally, intranasal ipratropium bromide may be helpful in the treatment of chronic cough associated with chronic non-allergic rhinitis, especially vasomotor rhinitis.
