Albutamol is a brand name of salbutamol. It is a prescription drug that belongs to the class of drugs called selective beta-2-adrenoreceptor agonists (bronchodilators). It is available in forms of tablets, suspensions, and inhalers. It is mainly used to provide relief from bronchospasm in asthma and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Patients with long-term respiratory infections are also prescribed Albutamol to get instant relief from breathing difficulties.
Albutamol is a bronchodilator which causes widening of bronchial smooth muscles present in lungs which get tightened causing a constriction. Due to the constriction, the air cannot pass in and out of your lungs, and the relaxation of these bronchial muscles results in dilation of airways. This drug helps the patients breathe more easily which provides relief to the patient from the symptoms such as a cough, wheezing, and chest tightness.
Take Albutamol as long as you do not get complete symptomatic relief. Do not discontinue the drug suddenly or take it longer than prescribed by your doctor.
