ABSTRACT
Background: The maintenance treatment in pediatric patients with asthma is based in the use of aerosol corticosteroids, where we have ciclesonide and fluticasone. There are two types of inhalation dispensers for their use: in one side the measured dosage inhalator (MDI) and on the other side dry powder inhalator (DPI).
Objective: To compare the utility between ciclesonide versus fluticasone, and the difference using them with MDI or DPI for treatment of asthma in children.
Search strategy: A search was done in journals databases as PUBMED, EMBASE, LILACS and Cochrane library.
Selection criteria: We searched for studies comparing treatment with ciclesonide versus fluticasone, both in DMI and DPI, in the treatment of children younger than 18 years diagnosed with asthma.
Results: As well as fluticasone, ciclesonide showed same amelioration of disease control parameters, and also in patient’s quality of life. Referring to adverse events, ciclesonide showed the advantage of not inhibiting cortisol secretion.
Conclusions: Ciclesonide is equally effective as fluticasone in the treatment of children with persistent moderate and severe asthma. Besides, bioavailability of ciclesonide allows administration once a day with fewer adverse events.
