[Salbutamol combined with erythromycin and sobrerol in the therapy of pertussis].

The results of treatment carried out with salbutamol, erythromycin and fluidifiers in 20 children with whooping cough are reported. Results in all cases were much superior to those that have been obtained up to the present with the use of antibiotics alone or associated with hyperimmune gammaglobulins and/or sedatives. A speedier and more complete resolution of symptomatology was observed in the group where treatment was instituted earlier.
