BACKGROUND: Inhaled furosemide has been shown recently to produce a protective effect against bronchoconstriction induced by several indirect stimuli, including ultrasonically nebulized distilled water (UNDW). Since there is a close parallel between its experimental effects and those reported for cromolyn,/it has been suggested that they may share some common mechanisms of action. Their protective effect, however, has never been compared directly. In this study, therefore, we have investigated the ability of equal doses (30 mg) of inhaled furosemide and cromolyn to modulate bronchoconstriction induced by UNDW in a group of ten asthmatic patients.
METHODS: Subjects with documented bronchial response to UNDW were enrolled in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Treatments were administered five minutes prior to increasing outputs of UNDW and the response was expressed as the provocative output causing a 20% fall in FEV1 (PO20, in mL/min) and as the output-response slope.
RESULTS: Geometric mean PO20 increased from 1.53 to 4.05 mL/min (P < .0004) after furosemide. After inhaling the highest output of UNDW (5.2 mL/min), PO20 was not measurable in six of ten patients when pretreated with furosemide and in all patients when pretreated with cromolyn. This difference was statistically significant (P < .05). Geometric mean values of output-response slope significantly decreased from 13.6 to 2.97 after furosemide (P < .0001) and from 13.6 to 1.43 (P < .0002) after cromolyn.
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that cromolyn has a slightly greater anti-reactive activity in UNDW-induced bronchoconstriction compared to furosemide.
