CLINICAL INFORMATION
INDICATIONS
Salbutamol is a selective beta-
2
adrenoceptor agonist indicated for the treatment or prevention
of bronchospasm. It provides short acting (four hours) bronchodilation
in reversible airways
obstruction due to asthma, chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
Bronchodilators should not be the only or main treatment in patients
with persistent asthma. In
patients with persistent asthma unresponsive to salbutamol, treatment
with inhaled
corticosteroids is recommended to achieve and maintain control.
Failing to respond to
treatment with salbutamol may signal a need for urgent medical advice
or treatment. The

combination of salbutamol with guaiphenesin is designed to relieve
respiratory obstruction and
improve pulmonary ventilation.
Respiratory disorders where bronchospasm and excessive secretion of
tenacious mucus are
complicating factors, e.g. bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis and
emphysema.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Salbutamol has a duration of action of 4 to 6 hours in most patients.
Increasing use of beta-
2
agonists may be a sign of worsening asthma. Under these conditions a
reassessment of the patient's therapy plan may be required and
concomitant
glucocorticosteroid therapy should be considered.
As there may be adverse effects associated with excessive dosing, the
dosage or frequency of
administration should only be increased on medical advice.
POPULATIONS
The volumes of syrup quoted are based on a formulation strength of 2
mg salbutamol per
10 ml of syrup.
