Ipratropium bromide for exercise-related breathing difficulty
Part of Lungs & breathing clinical trials.
This study tests whether a medication called ipratropium bromide helps people with exercise-induced laryngomalacia (EILO), a condition where the voice box narrows during exercise, making it hard to breathe. You would take the medication and then do an exercise test to see if it improves your breathing.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a clear diagnosis of EILO, which was confirmed by a special exercise test that looks at your voice box while you exercise
- You must be able to do an exercise test
- You must feel short of breath (dyspnea) when you exert yourself
- You must not be allergic to atropine or similar drugs
- You must not have a history of certain irregular heart rhythms (atrial flutter or fibrillation)
- You or your caregiver must agree to take part and follow all study rules

This trial tests a treatment approach for exercise-related breathing difficulty called EILO. It aims to help people whose breathing problems show up during peak exercise and who want ongoing follow-up.
This study looks at how the vocal cords move during exercise in young adults who have trouble breathing while active. It may help researchers understand why this happens and how to better diagnose and treat it.
This study tests if an inhaled medication called tiotropium can help children who were born prematurely and have narrow airways. It may improve their breathing and lung function.
This study tests if inhaling L-menthol can help reduce breathlessness in people with interstitial lung disease. You will cycle while breathing menthol or a placebo to see if it makes breathing easier.
This trial tests if L-menthol can help reduce breathlessness in people with asthma. You'll take L-menthol and see if it improves your breathing during exercise.
This study tests how a bronchodilator (a medicine that opens airways) affects breathing and exercise in people with COPD. It aims to understand if it helps you breathe easier during physical activity.
