berotek and Muscle Weakness

berotek has been researched along with Muscle Weakness in 1 studies

Fenoterol: A synthetic adrenergic beta-2 agonist that is used as a bronchodilator and tocolytic.
fenoterol : A member of the class resorcinols that is 5-(1-hydroxyethyl)benzene-1,3-diol in which one of the methyl hydrogens is replaced by a 1-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propan-2-amino group. A beta2-adrenergic agonist, it is used (as the hydrobromide salt) as a bronchodilator in the management of reversible airway obstruction.

Muscle Weakness: A vague complaint of debility, fatigue, or exhaustion attributable to weakness of various muscles. The weakness can be characterized as subacute or chronic, often progressive, and is a manifestation of many muscle and neuromuscular diseases. (From Wyngaarden et al., Cecil Textbook of Medicine, 19th ed, p2251)

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
" We conducted an extensive dose-response study to determine the most efficacious dose of fenoterol for increasing skeletal muscle mass in adult rats and used this dose in testing the hypothesis that fenoterol may have therapeutic potential for ameliorating age-related muscle wasting and weakness."1.32Beta 2-agonist administration reverses muscle wasting and improves muscle function in aged rats. ( Gregorevic, P; Lynch, GS; Plant, DR; Ryall, JG; Sillence, MN, 2004)
