Initial inhalation method (nebulizer or MDI) was randomly assigned. Treatments were crossed over after a 7-day washout period. Treatments initially were performed using sedation.

Six of 10 dogs were randomly selected and reassessed without sedation.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Inhalation method had significant effect on respiratory tract deposition (P = 0.027).

Nebulization achieved higher respiratory tract deposition than MDI in 7 of 10 dogs.
