➡️ Albuterol Definition
Albuterol is a short-acting adrenergic bronchodilator agent that is used to treat or prevent bronchospasm. It's considered to be a "rescue drug" because it works quickly to provide relief for reversible airflow obstructions as seen in patients with asthma. You may have also heard it referred to as SABA, or short-acting beta-2 agonist. It causes stimulation of the B2-receptors which relaxes bronchial smooth muscle tissue to helps the airways open back up. Albuterol also stimulates α-receptors and B1-receptors as well which causes vasoconstriction and an increased heart rate. This is why tachycardia and hypertension are two side effects of this medication. Some others include shakiness, tremors, and nervousness in some cases.
➡️ Albuterol Uses
Albuterol comes as a solution (liquid) that can be inhaled into the lungs after being broken up into an aerosol mist by a nebulizer. It can also be administered with a metered-dose inhaler (MDI) or dry-powder inhaler (DPI) as well.
➡️ Some of the common brand names of albuterol include:
- Proventil
- Ventolin
- ProAir
- AccuNeb
