WHAT DOES ALBUTEROL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

albuterol

Salbutamol

Salbutamol or albuterol is a short-acting β2-adrenergic receptor agonist used for the relief of bronchospasm in conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. It is marketed as Ventolin among other brand names. Salbutamol was the first selective β2-receptor agonist to be marketed in 1968. It was first sold by Allen & Hanburys under the brand name Ventolin, and has been used for the treatment of asthma ever since. It was approved for use in the US by the FDA in May 1982. Salbutamol sulfate is sold in the USA as Ventolin HFA, ProAir HFA, or Proventil HFA, and is also available in extended release tablets. It is usually given by the inhaled route for direct effect on bronchial smooth muscle. This is usually achieved through a metered dose inhaler, nebulizer or other proprietary delivery devices. In these forms of delivery, the maximal effect of salbutamol can take place within five to 20 minutes of dosing, though some relief is immediately seen. It can also be given intravenously. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, a list of the most important medication needed in a basic health system.
