What is salbutamol used for?
Salbutamol is a short-acting bronchodilator used for asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It opens the airways quickly to relieve breathlessness.
How does salbutamol work in the body?
Salbutamol is a fast-acting beta2 agonist that relaxes the muscles around the airways, so they open up within minutes.
How long does salbutamol take to work?
Salbutamol usually starts to work within 5 to 15 minutes and lasts about 4 to 6 hours.
What side effects can salbutamol cause?
Common side effects are tremor and headache. You may also notice palpitations, a fast heart rate or low potassium, and a rare but serious effect is paradoxical tightening of the airways (bronchospasm), which needs immediate medical help. Speak to a doctor or pharmacist if you are concerned.
Can salbutamol be taken with other medicines?
Beta-blockers can interact with salbutamol, and other stimulants or bronchodilators may add to its effects. If you have a heart rhythm problem or low potassium, check with a doctor or pharmacist before using it.
