Plasma terbutaline levels in asthma. 1983

R Dinwiddie, and M Gewitz, and H Van der Laag, and M H Frame

Plasma terbutaline levels and peak expiratory flow rates were measured in 5 asthmatic children using doses of 0.25 and 0.075 mg/kg. The higher dose resulted in safe, non-toxic plasma levels and returned the peak expiratory flow rate to normal. This dose (maximum 5 mg) is safe in children.
