MODERN APPROACHES TO THE SELECTION OF A MEDICATION COMPLEX FOR EMERGENCY THERAPY OF OBSTRUCTIVE SYNDROME IN RESPIRATORY DISEASES IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS
Abstract
The article presents algorithms for providing emergency care in children with obstructive syndrome associated with lower respiratory tract diseases. It substantiates the need to include inhaled corticosteroids (budesonide) in the bronchodilator therapy complex for moderate and severe obstruction.
The results of clinical studies on the efficacy and safety of the drug in children with bronchial obstruction of varying severity show that the use of budesonide suspension (Pulmicort) for nebulizer therapy leads to faster relief of obstructive symptoms and normalization of the patient’s condition.
