Albuterol
Albuterol is a medication commonly used to treat asthma and other respiratory conditions. It belongs to a class of drugs called bronchodilators, specifically beta-2 adrenergic agonists.
Albuterol works by relaxing the muscles in the airways, which helps to open up the air passages and improve breathing. It acts on the beta-2 receptors in the smooth muscles of the bronchial tubes, causing them to relax and widen. This allows for increased airflow into the lungs, relieving symptoms such as wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
Albuterol can be administered through inhalation using a metered-dose inhaler (MDI), dry powder inhaler (DPI), or nebulizer. It is a fast-acting medication, providing quick relief during acute asthma attacks or episodes of bronchospasm.
