AZMASOL
®
Inhaler
DESCRIPTION
Salbutamol
BP,
the
active
ingredient
of
Azmasol
Inhaler,
is
a
β
2
adrenoceptor agonist used in the treatment of asthma and other forms
of
diffuse reversible airways obstruction.
INDICATIONS
Azmasol
(Salbutamol)
inhaler
is
indicated
for
the
treatment
and
prophylaxis of bronchial asthma and for the treatment of reversible
airways obstruction associated with bronchitis and emphysema. Azmasol
inhaler may be used to relieve attacks of acute dyspnoea and may also
be
taken prophylactically before exertion or to prevent exercise induced
asthma.
It
is
suitable
for
treating
bronchospasm
in
patients
with
coexisting
heart
disease
or
hypertension,
including
those
taking
β
blockers, because of its selective action on the bronchial receptors
and
lack
of
effects
on
the
cardiovascular
system.
Salbutamol
is
a
sympathomimetic
agent
which
has
a
highly
selective
action
on
β
adrenergic receptors in bronchial muscle. At therapeutic levels, it
has little
effect on cardiac receptors.
