DESCRIPTION Albuterol sulfate inhalation solution is a relatively selective beta -adrenergic bronchodilator (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY section below). Albuterol sulfate, the racemic form of albuterol, has the chemical name α [( _tert_-Butylamino)methyl]-4- hydroxy- _m_-xylene-α,α’diol sulfate (2:1) (salt), and the following structural formula: Albuterol sulfate has a molecular weight of 576.71 and the molecular formula (C H NO ) •H SO . Albuterol sulfate is a white or practically white powder, freely soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol. The World Health Organization recommended name for albuterol base is salbutamol. Albuterol sulfate inhalation solution 0.083% requires no dilution before administration. 2 1 13 21 3 2 2 4 Each mL of albuterol sulfate inhalation solution (0.083%) contains 0.83 mg of albuterol (as 1 mg of albuterol sulfate) in an isotonic, sterile, aqueous solution containing edetate disodium, sodium chloride, and sodium citrate (dihydrate); hydrochloric acid is used to adjust the pH between 3 and 5. Albuterol sulfate inhalation solution (0.083%) contains no sulfiting agents. Albuterol sulfate inhalation solution is a clear, colorless solution. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY The prime action of beta-adrenergic drugs is to stimulate adenyl cyclase, the enzyme which catalyzes the formation of cyclic-3’,5’-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The cyclic AMP thus formed mediates the cellular responses. _In vitro_ studies and _in vivo_ pharmacologic studies have demonstrated that albuterol has a preferential effect on beta -adrenergic receptors compared with isoprot Soma hati kamili
