Ten asthmatic children were studied by tetracosactrin stimulation tests after receiving beclomethasone dipropionate aerosol (BDA) for periods of up to 12 months. Clinical improvement occurred in all children while receiving BDA. No change in adrenal function could be demonstrated by comparing the tetracosactrin stimulation tests before and after treatment with BDA.
