Funding flows as Pulmatrix lung drug advances
Recently completed Phase 1 studies in healthy volunteers showed the new drug was safe and well tolerated, so Pulmatrix will do additional trials to measure PUR118’s effects on airway inflammation and mucus.
The new cash, says chief executive Robert Connelly, “will get us through these critical studies over the next 18 months, which will put us in position to plan larger, pivotal studies.’’
Pulmatrix is using its technology platform, which it calls iCalm, to create aerosol treatments that attack in three ways:
■They have positively charged ion-based compounds, like calcium and magnesium, that stimulate the immune system to fight off pathogens people breathe in all the time, like viruses and bacteria.
“We have the ability to take on all comers - we can deal with any airborne infection,’’ Connelly says.
■The drugs produce an anti-inflammatory effect without steroids, a common ingredient in many lung remedies.
■They help clear mucus from the lungs.

S for about a week along with antibotics. I think this is pretty normal. Hope you feel better.Yes. There is a direct correlation with certain types of asthma and pulminary illnesses.
With brochitis when you listen to the lower lobes of the lungs, you would hear a rattle. As you know, with asthma it is a wheezing sound or a whistle.
When you get bronchitis it can cause bronchialitis-induced asthma.
The albuterol inhaler will be your biggest relief.. just make sure that you spray it once into the air before you take a puff, as bacteria can build up in the valve.
Also, when you use it make sure to breath deaply and wait 1 minute between puffs to allow your lungs to absord the madicine. If you don’t have an Aerochamber, ask you physician for one. This is a plastic tube. Your mouth goes on one end and the enhaler goes in the other. When you release the medicine from the inhaler intot eh chamber you should take 6 slow deep breaths wait 4 breaths and repeat.
