Description

Albuterol is a bronchodilatory product which contains an active ingredient Salbutamol. This medicine is a stimulant of beta2-adrenoreceptor bronchi, blood vessels and myometrium.

 

During stimulation of beta2-adrenoreceptors, a dilation of bronchi happens, oxygenic patency is improved, and a risk of bronchospasm is reduced in the setting of the inflammatory disease or allergic reaction.

 

Albuterol selectively acts to adrenoceptors and therefore it does not provide an action to beta1-adrenoreceptors which are located in the heart. Albuterol not only stimulates beta2-adrenoceptors but also inhibits a production of histamine which can cause an allergic bronchospasm. This medicine activates many functions of the respiratory system, improves the production of mucus, increases the vital capacity.

 

According to the data of the medical studies, Albuterol is well tolerated by all groups of patients. The probability of the side effects is not higher than using other beta-adrenoceptors.
