Bronchodilators are a type of medication that make breathing easier by relaxing the muscles in the lungs and widening the airways (bronchi)
Terbutaline, salbutamol with ipratropium, and ipratropium nebuliser liquids remain available, however, they cannot support an increase in demand
Nebuliser or respirator solutions of salbutamol are used to treat acute asthma attacks in hospital
A nebulizer is a device that turns the liquid medicine into a mist which is then
Short-acting beta-2 agonists (SABAs), such as salbutamol and terbutaline, have a rapid onset of action (5 minutes) and their effects last for up to 4 hours
It works by relaxing and opening air passages to the lungs to make breathing easier
The short acting beta-2 agonist salbutamol used in acute asthma exacerbation is found in the forms of nebule or pMDI in Turkey
