A study of dlethylcarbamazlne in intractable steroid-dependent asthmatics indicated symptomatic relief in dally oral doses of 10 mg/kg. This dosage exceeds that suggested for the chemotherapy of filarlasis. In view of the reported success in this one study, confirmation of these findings would appear worthwhile. 

Two prostaglandins (PGF2a and PGE2) were reported to elicit opposite 

Isoetharine, although first reported in 1950, has been the object of several recent clinical reports. Based on laboratory observations, this alpha-ethyl homolog of isoproterenol preferentially retains bronchodllator actions in relation to cardiovascular actions when compared to Isoproterenol. In patients with obstructive lung disease, Isoetharine was reported to show a long duration of action and selectivity for 

Mucolytics. — Studies with acetylcysteine continue to show this compound, alone and in combination with isoproterenol, demonstrates a significant and real mucolytic action greater than that produced by water, saline, detergents or enzymes. The principal mucolytic action of a sulfhydryl interchange with disulfide bonds in the mucoproteins appears to be
