Respiratory Pharmacology
Respiratory pharmacology primarily deals with agents used to treat the “pathological triad” of pulmonary disease. The pathological triad consists of: bronchospasm, airway inflammation, and retained secretions. Agents used to treat these conditions consist of bronchodilators, antimuscarinics, corticosteroids, mucokinetics, mucolytic, and decongestants, among others. Additional agents used in the treatment of pulmonary disease are oxygen, antibiotics, local anaesthetics’, respiratory stimulants, and muscle relaxers. All of these, with the exception of oxygen, are discussed in this paper. Particular emphasis is placed on medications delivered in an aerosol form.
