Albuterol Treatment During Pregnancy
Quick-Relief Medications
These medications quickly control acute asthma attacks.
Short-Acting Beta2-Agonists
Beta2-agonists do not reduce inflammation or airway responsiveness but serve as bronchodilators, relaxing and opening constricted airways during an acute asthma attack. They are used alone only for patients with mild and intermittent asthma. Patients with more severe cases should use them in combination with other drugs.
