Pharmacology
Livodel 1 mg/5 ml is a single isomer beta-2 agonist that differs from racemic salbutamol by elimination of (S)-salbutamol. Livodel 1 mg/5 ml is an effective bronchodilator whose primary mechanism of action is not inhibited by (S)-salbutamol.Thus, when compared with racemic salbutamol, clinically comparable bronchodilation can be achieved. Livodel 1 mg/5 ml produces bronchodilatation through stimulation of beta-2-adrenergic receptors in bronchial smooth muscles, thereby causing relaxation of bronchial muscle fibres.
Dosage & Administration of Livodel 1 mg/5 ml
Children (6 -11 years): 5 ml (1 mg), three times daily.Adults and adolescents above 12 years: 5-10 ml (1-2 mg), three times daily.
Interaction of Livodel 1 mg/5 ml
Other short-acting sympathomimetic bronchodilators or epinephrine should be used with caution with Livodel 1 mg/5 ml. If additional adrenergic drugs are to be administered by any route, they should be used with caution to avoid deleterious cardiovascular effects.
