How does Ventolin work?
Ventorlin | Ventolin (Salbutamol) Inhaler is a fast-acting albuterol inhaler. It works by opening the airways in your lungs to ease breathing during an asthma attack it can be used as a rescue medicine to help relieve your sudden asthma symptoms when they occur.

• It is used to treat people with asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema.
• It relaxes the smooth muscle in the lung and dilates airways to improve breathing.
• It enables the drug to reach deep into the lungs for maximum benefit.

Salbutamol works by acting on receptors in the lungs called beta 2 receptors. When salbutamol stimulates these receptors it causes the muscles in the airways to relax. This allows the airways to open.

Salbutamol is most commonly used as a inhaler device. Inhaling the medicine allows it to act directly in the lungs where it is needed most. It also reduces the potential for side effects occurring in other parts of the body, as the amount absorbed into the blood through the lungs is lower than if it is taken by mouth. Salbutamol when used as an inhaler is known as a reliever. This is because it works very quickly to relieve asthma attacks, wheezing, chest tightness or shortness of breath. Salbutamol inhalers can also be used to open the airways shortly before exercising to prevent wheezing. Salbutamol may also be given by injection in hospital to treat severe asthma attacks.
