Abstract

Two cases of pulmonary oedema during beta 2-adrenergic agonist therapy in pre-eclampsia pregnant patients are reported. In our first case, the pulmonary oedema was exceptionally severe, because the patient (twins at 26 SA) had to be intubated and ventilated, but the caesarean section was performed only 6 weeks later. These two clinical observations underline the fact that B2 adrenergic agonist are not indicated for the treatment of preeclampsy. Furthermore they suggest that such patients should be rapidly admitted to intensive care units.
