We have studied 23 asthmatic children who were wheezy when attending a hospital clinic or following tests for exercise-induced asthma. Fenoterol was administered by metered dose aerosol against the buccal mucosa on the inside of the cheek. This produced marked improvement in peak-expiratory-flow-rate and relieved clinical symptoms. Buccal administration of fenoterol may be a useful treatment for children with mild asthma who have difficulty in using inhaled drugs.
