If you suffer from chronic bronchitis or asthma, the doctor will probably recommend that you buy Salbutamol Aerosol, which will eliminate unpleasant sensations.
Aerosol composition Salbutamol
The drug is a bronchodilator with a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect. The main substance that is part of the drug is salbutamol. For 100 mg of the drug there are 0.0725 mg of this drug. The auxiliary components are:
- cetyl oleate;
- fluorotrichloromethane;
- difluodichloromethane;
- oleic acid;
- ethanol.
Mechanism of action of Salbutamol
Salbutamol for inhalation stimulates beta2-adrenergic receptors of the bronchial surface, as well as blood vessels. It prevents the release of biologically active substances from the mast cells. Its action is quite long. Also, the drug increases the vital capacity of the lungs and prevents spasms of the bronchi. If they are observed in the patient, then the drug is able to stop the attack. The use of the drug stimulates a better separation of sputum, improves the work of cells of the ciliated epithelium. The drug prevents the release of histamine. When it is used, there is practically no decrease in blood pressure.
Due to the fact that the components of the drug are rapidly absorbed into tissues and blood, its effect is felt immediately after use. The greatest relief can come in 30-60 minutes. The effect lasts up to three hours.
Who recommends Salbutamol aerosol?
Salbutamol has indications for use as follows:
- obstructive processes (obstruction or narrowing of the lumen of the bronchi with emphysema of the lungs and bronchitis);
- bronchial asthma .
Quite often aerosol is used by patients with asthmatic bronchitis, as well as those who need to stop bronchospasm.
Interaction with other drugs
It is worth saying that the aerosol for inhalation Salbutamol is not recommended to combine with non-selective beta-adrenoreceptor blockers, for example, propranolol.
Theophylline and xanthines can cause tachyarethmia, and the means for inhalation anesthesia are severe ventricular arrhythmias. Aerosol components can enhance the action of stimulants of the central nervous system, while thyroid hormones can affect the condition of the heart. It should be careful with the simultaneous administration of anticholinergic drugs, since this can provoke an increase in intraocular pressure.
