Symptoms: usually associated primarily with the action of fenoterol.
There may be symptoms associated with excessive stimulation of beta-adrenergic receptors. The most likely occurrence of tachycardia, palpitations, tremors, hypertension or hypotension, increased pulse pressure, angina, arrhythmias and hot flashes, metabolic acidosis, hypokalemia.
Symptoms overdoses of ipratropium bromide (such as dry mouth, impaired eye accommodation), given the large breadth of the therapeutic effect of the drug and the local method of application, are usually low-expressed and have a transient character.
Treatment: it is necessary to stop taking the drug. It is necessary to take into account the data of monitoring the acid-base balance of the blood. Sedatives, tranquilizers, and in severe cases, intensive therapy are indicated. As a specific antidote, beta-blockers may be used, preferably beta-blockers.1- selective adrenoblockers. However, you should be aware of the possible increase in bronchial obstruction under the influence of beta-blockers and carefully select the dose for patients suffering from bronchial asthma or COPD, due to the risk of severe bronchospasm, which can lead to death.

Long-term simultaneous use of the drug Berodual® H with other anticholinergic drugs is not recommended due to the lack of data.
beta-adrenergic and anticholinergic agents, xanthine derivatives (for example, theophylline) can enhance the bronchodilating effect of Berodual® H. Concomitant administration of other beta-adrenomimetics that enter the systemic circulation of anticholinergics or xanthine derivatives (for example, theophylline) may lead to increased side effects. There may be a significant weakening of the bronchodilating effect of the drug Berodual® H with simultaneous administration of beta-blockers.
Hypokalemia associated with the use of beta-adrenomimetics can be enhanced by the simultaneous administration of xanthine derivatives, corticosteroids and diuretics. This should be given special attention in the treatment of patients with severe forms of obstructive respiratory diseases.
Hypokalemia may lead to an increased risk of arrhythmias in patients receiving digoxin. In addition, hypoxia may increase the negative effect of hypokalemia on the heart rate. In such cases, it is recommended to monitor the concentration of potassium in the blood serum.
Caution should be exercised when prescribing β2- adrenergic agents in patients treated with MAO inhibitors and tricyclic antidepressants, since these drugs can enhance the effect of beta-adrenergic agents.
Inhalation of halogenated hydrocarbon anesthetics, such as halothane, trichloroethylene, or enflurane, may increase the adverse effects of beta-adrenergic agents on CCC.

Berodual® H contains two components with bronchodilatory activity: ipratropium bromide-m-holinoblokator and phenoterol hydrobromide-β2- adrenomimetic.
Bronchodilation with inhaled administration of ipratropium bromide is mainly due to local, rather than systemic anticholinergic action.
Ipratropium bromide is a quaternary ammonium compound with anticholinergic (parasympatholytic) properties. Ipratropium bromide inhibits reflexes caused by the vagus nerve. Anticholinergic agents prevent an increase in intracellular Ca concentration2 , which occurs due to the interaction of acetylcholine with the muscarinic receptor located on the smooth muscles of the bronchi. The Release Of Ca2 It is mediated by a system of secondary mediators, which include inositol triphosphate (ITP) and diacylglycerin (DAG).
In patients with bronchospasm associated with COPD (chronic bronchitis and emphysema), a significant improvement in lung function (an increase in FEV1 and peak expiratory velocity by 15% or more) was observed within 15 minutes, the maximum effect was achieved after 1-2 hours and continued in most patients up to 6 hours after administration.
Ipratropium bromide does not adversely affect mucus secretion in the respiratory tract, mucociliary clearance, and gas exchange.
Phenoterol hydrobromide selectively stimulates β2- adrenoreceptors in a therapeutic dose. Β stimulation2-adrenergic receptors activates adenylate cyclase via stimulation of the Gs- squirrel.
Β stimulation1- adrenergic receptors occur when using high doses.
Fenoterol hydrobromide relaxes the smooth muscles of the bronchi and blood vessels and counteracts the development of bronchospastic reactions caused by the influence of histamine, metacholine, cold air and allergens (immediate hypersensitivity reactions). Immediately after administration, fenoterol blocks the release of inflammatory mediators and bronchial obstruction from mast cells. In addition, when using fenoterol in doses of 0.6 mg, an increase in mucociliary clearance was noted.
the beta-adrenergic effect of the drug on cardiac activity, such as an increase in the frequency and strength of heart contractions, is due to the vascular action of fenoterol, the stimulation of β2- adrenoreceptors of the heart, and when using doses exceeding the therapeutic ones, by stimulating β1- adrenergic receptors.
As with the use of other beta-adrenergic drugs, there was an elongation of the QTc interval when using high doses. When using phenoterol with metered-dose aerosol inhalers (DAI), this effect was not constant and was observed in the case of doses that exceeded the recommended ones. However, after the use of fenoterol with nebulizers (solution for inhalation in vials with a standard dose), the systemic effect may be higher than when using the drug with DAI in the recommended doses.
The clinical significance of these observations has not been established. The most commonly observed effect of beta-adrenoreceptor agonists is tremor. In contrast to the effects on the smooth muscles of the bronchi, tolerance can develop to the systemic effects of beta-adrenoreceptor agonists, the clinical significance of this manifestation has not been clarified. Tremor is the most common undesirable effect when using beta-adrenoreceptor agonists. When these two active substances are used together, the bronchodilating effect is achieved by acting on various pharmacological targets. These substances complement each other, as a result, the antispasmodic effect on the bronchial muscles is enhanced and a greater breadth of therapeutic action is provided for bronchopulmonary diseases accompanied by constriction of the respiratory tract. The complementary effect is such that a lower dose of the beta-adrenergic component is required to achieve the desired effect, which allows you to individually select an effective dose with virtually no side effects. In acute bronchoconstriction, the effect of the drug Berodual® H develops quickly, which allows it to be used in acute attacks of bronchospasm.
Preparation of Aerobidol® it contains two components that have bronchodilatory activity: ipratropium bromide-m-holinoblokator and phenoterol-β2- adrenomimetic. Bronchodilation with inhaled administration of ipratropium bromide is mainly due to local, and not systemic, anticholinergic action.
Ipratropium bromide is a quaternary ammonium derivative with anticholinergic (parasympatholytic) properties. The drug inhibits the reflexes caused by the vagus nerve, counteracting the effects of acetylcholine-a mediator released from the endings of the vagus nerve. Anticholinergic agents prevent an increase in intracellular Ca concentration2 , which occurs due to the interaction of acetylcholine with the muscarinic receptor located on the smooth muscles of the bronchi. The Release Of Ca2 It is mediated by a system of secondary mediators, which include inositol triphosphate (ITP) and diacylglycerin (DAG).

In acute bronchoconstriction, the effect of the drug Aerobidol® it develops quickly, which allows it to be used in acute attacks of bronchospasm.
The therapeutic effect of the combination of ipratropium bromide and phenoterol hydrobromide is a consequence of its local action in the respiratory tract. The development of bronchodilation is not parallel to the pharmacokinetic parameters of active substances.
After inhalation, 10-30% of the administered dose of the drug usually enters the lungs (depending on the dosage form and method of inhalation). The remaining portion of the dose is deposited on the mouthpiece, in the oral cavity and oropharynx. Part of the dose deposited in the oropharynx is swallowed and enters the gastrointestinal tract.
Part of the dose of the drug that enters the lungs quickly reaches the systemic blood flow (within a few minutes).
There is no evidence that the pharmacokinetics of the combined drug differs from that of each of the individual components.
Fenoterol hydrobromide
The ingested portion of the dose is metabolized to sulfate conjugates. Absolute oral bioavailability is low (about 1.5%).
After intravenous administration, free and conjugated phenoterol make up 15 and 27% of the administered dose, respectively, in a 24-hour urine analysis. After inhalation, approximately 1% of the administered dose is excreted in the form of free phenoterol in a 24-hour urine test. On this basis, the total systemic bioavailability of the inhaled dose of fenoterol hydrobromide is estimated at 7%.
The kinetic parameters describing the distribution of phenoterol are calculated from the plasma concentration after intravenous administration. After intravenous administration, the plasma concentration-time profiles can be described by a three-part model, according to which T1/2 is approximately 3 h. In this three-part model, the apparent Vss phenoterol approximately 189 l (»2.7 l / kg).
About 40% of fenoterol binds to plasma proteins. Preclinical studies have shown that phenoterol and its metabolites do not penetrate the BBB. Total clearance of fenoterol-1.8 l / min, renal clearance-0.27 l / min. The total renal excretion (within 2 days) of the isotope-labeled dose (including the starting compound and all metabolites) was 65% after intravenous administration. The total isotope-labeled dose released through the intestine was 14.8% after intravenous administration, and 40.2% after oral administration for 48 hours. The total isotope-labeled dose released through the kidneys was about 39% after oral administration.
Ipratropium bromide
The total renal excretion (within 24 hours) of the starting compound is approximately 46% of the intravenous dose, less than 1% of the oral dose, and approximately 3-13% of the inhaled dose of the drug. Based on these data, it is calculated that the total systemic bioavailability of ipratropium bromide, used orally and inhaled, is 2 and 7-28%, respectively. Thus, the effect of the ingested part of ipratropium bromide on the systemic effect is insignificant.
The kinetic parameters describing the distribution of ipratropium bromide were calculated based on its plasma concentrations after intravenous administration. A rapid two-phase decrease in plasma concentration is observed. The Apparent Vss it is approximately 176 l (»2.4 l / kg). The drug binds to plasma proteins to a minimal extent (less than 20%). Preclinical studies have shown that ipratropium, which is a quaternary compound of ammonium, does not penetrate the BBB.
T1/2 In the final phase, it is approximately 1.6 hours. The total clearance of ipratropium is 2.3 l / min, and the renal clearance is 0.9 l / min. After intravenous administration, approximately 60% of the dose is metabolized by oxidation, mainly in the liver.
The total renal excretion (within 6 days) of the isotope-labeled dose (including the starting compound and all metabolites) was 72.1% after intravenous administration, 9.3% after oral administration, and 3.2% after inhalation. The total isotope-labeled dose released through the intestine was 6.3% after intravenous administration, 88.5% after oral administration, and 69.4% after inhalation. Thus, the excretion of the isotope-labeled dose after intravenous administration is mainly carried out through the kidneys. T1/2 the initial compound and metabolites is 3.6 hours. The main metabolites excreted in the urine bind weakly to muscarinic receptors and are considered inactive.
The therapeutic effect of the combination of ipratropium bromide and fenoterol is a consequence of its local action in the respiratory tract. The development of bronchodilation is not directly proportional to the pharmacokinetic parameters of active substances.
After inhalation, 10-39% of the administered dose of the drug usually enters the lungs (depending on the dosage form and method of inhalation). The remaining portion of the dose is deposited on the mouthpiece, in the oral cavity and oropharynx. Part of the dose deposited in the oropharynx is swallowed and enters the gastrointestinal tract.

Aerobidol
Fenoterol, Ipratropium Bromide
The dose should be selected individually. In the absence of other recommendations of the doctor, the following doses are recommended.
Adults and children over 6 years old
Treatment of seizures. In most cases, two inhalation doses of aerosol are sufficient to relieve symptoms. If there is no relief of breathing within 5 minutes, you can use an additional 2 inhalation doses.
If the effect is absent after four inhalation doses and additional inhalations are required, you should immediately seek medical attention.
Intermittent and long-term therapy. 1-2 inhalations at a time, up to 8 inhalations per day (on average, 1-2 inhalations 3 times a day). In case of bronchial asthma, the drug should be used only as needed.
Berodual® H in children should be used only as prescribed by a doctor and under the supervision of adults.
Method of application
Patients should be instructed about the proper use of the metered-dose aerosol. Before using the new inhaler for the first time, take the inhaler bottom up, remove the protective cap and make 2 injections into the air by pressing the bottom of the can 2 times.
Each time you use a metered-dose aerosol, you must observe the following rules::
1. Remove the protective cap.
2. Make a slow, full exhalation.
3. While holding the inhaler, as shown in Figure 1, tightly wrap your lips around the mouthpiece. The spray can should be directed with the bottom and the arrow pointing up.
Figure 1
4. Start inhaling and simultaneously press hard on the bottom of the can until one inhalation dose is released.
Continue to inhale slowly to the maximum and hold your breath for a few seconds. Then remove the mouthpiece from your mouth and exhale slowly.
To obtain a second inhaled dose, repeat the steps from step 2.
5. Put on the protective cap.
6. If the aerosol can has not been used for more than 3 days, press the bottom of the can once before use until the aerosol cloud appears.
Since the can is opaque, it is impossible to determine visually whether it is empty. The canister is designed for 200 inhalations. After using this number of doses, a small amount of the solution may remain in it. However, you should replace the inhaler, because otherwise you may not get the necessary therapeutic dose.
The amount of the drug remaining in the can can be checked as follows:
- shake the can, this will show if there is any liquid left in it,
- another way. Remove the plastic mouthpiece from the canister and place the canister in a container of water. The contents of the can can be determined by its position in the water (see Figure 2).
Figure 2
Clean the inhaler at least once a week.
It is important to keep the inhaler mouthpiece clean so that the drug particles do not block the release of the aerosol.
During cleaning, first remove the protective cap and remove the canister from the inhaler. Pass a stream of warm water through the inhaler, make sure that the drug and/or visible dirt are removed.
Figure 3
After cleaning, shake the inhaler and allow it to air dry without using heating devices. Once the mouthpiece is dry, insert the canister into the inhaler and put on the protective cap.
Figure 4
Warning: the plastic mouthpiece is specially designed for the metered aerosol Berodual® H and is used for accurate dosing of the drug. The mouthpiece should not be used with other metered-dose aerosols. You can also not use the aerosol Berodual® N With any adapters other than the mouthpiece supplied with the spray can.
The contents of the canister are under pressure. The canister must not be opened and subjected to heat above 50 °C.
Inhaled.
Treatment should be carried out under medical supervision (for example, in a hospital setting). Treatment at home is possible only after consultation with a doctor in cases where a fast-acting beta-agonist at a low dose is not effective enough. Also, the solution for inhalation can be recommended to patients in the case when the aerosol for inhalation can not be used or if it is necessary to use higher doses. The dose should be selected individually, depending on the severity of the attack. Treatment should usually begin with the lowest recommended dose and stop after a sufficient reduction in symptoms has been achieved.
The following doses are recommended.
Adults (including the elderly) and adolescents over 12 years of age
Acute attacks of bronchospasm. Depending on the severity of the attack, the doses can vary from 1 ml (1 ml = 20 drops) to 2.5 ml (2.5 ml = 50 drops). In particularly severe cases, it is possible to use doses up to 4 ml (4 ml = 80 drops).
Children 6-12 years old
Acute attacks of bronchial asthma. Depending on the severity of the attack, the doses can vary from 0.5 ml (0.5 ml = 10 drops) to 2 ml (2 ml = 40 drops).
Children under 6 years of age (whose body weight is less than 22 kg)
Due to the fact that information about the use of the drug in this age group is limited, it is recommended to use the following dose (only under medical supervision): 0.1 ml (2 drops)/kg of body weight, but not more than 0.5 ml (10 drops).
The inhalation solution should only be used for inhalation (with a suitable nebulizer) and should not be administered orally.
Treatment should usually begin with the lowest recommended dose.
The recommended dose should be diluted with 0.9% sodium chloride solution to a final volume of 3-4 ml, and applied (completely) with a nebulizer.
Aerobidol Solution® for inhalation, it should not be diluted with distilled water.
Dilution of the solution should be carried out every time before use, the remains of the diluted solution should be destroyed.
The diluted solution should be used immediately after preparation. The duration of inhalation can be controlled by the consumption of the diluted solution.
Aerobidol Solution® for inhalation, it can be used using various commercial models of nebulizers. The dose reaching the lungs and the systemic dose depend on the type of nebulizer used and may be higher than the corresponding doses when using a metered aerosol of Aerobidol® N (which depends on the type of inhaler). When using a centralized oxygen system, the solution is best used at a flow rate of 6-8 l/min.
Follow the instructions for use, maintenance and cleaning of the nebulizer.
