Abstract
Chirality plays an important role in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of various pharmaceutical agents. The importance of stereoisomeric purity in the pharmacologic industry has increased during the past decade as demonstrated by the increased number of studies that examined the in vivo and in vitro effects produced by changes in stereoconfiguration of pharmaceutical agents. This review highlights such effects in certain frequently used medications used in the treatment of asthma and various allergic and immunologic disorders.
