The Effect of Indomethacin on Exercise-Induced Bronchoconstriction and Refractoriness after Exercise1–3
Abstract
Exercise causes bronchoconstriction in asthmatic subjects, which is usually followed by a refractory period during which exercise of the same intensity will cause less bronchoconstriction. This study examined the role of contractile prostaglandins in the initial bronchoconstriction after exercise and the role of inhibitory prostaglandins in the refractoriness after exercise. Subjects were pretreated with indomethacin, 50 mg twice daily, on 1 …
