What is Ventolin inhaler used for?

Ventolin inhalers are inhalation treatments available for managing the symptoms of asthma. It is a type of “reliever” inhaler, which has a fast and shorter-lasting effect.

How does Ventolin works? Salbutamol mechanism of action? 

Ventolin inhaler works through the active ingredient salbutamol. This helps to open up the airways to relieve asthma sufferers from symptoms such as chest tightness, wheezing, and coughing. It has a rapid effect, making it important for use on the onset of symptoms, and lasts for roughly 4-6 hours. It can also be used for the prevention of asthma symptoms that can be brought on by exercise.

How do I use Ventolin inhaler?

For children over the age of 12, adults, and the elderly, 1-2 puffs from the inhaler should be adequate for the relief of asthma symptoms. If you are taking the inhaler to prevent symptoms before exercise or the triggering of an asthma attack, you can take 2-4 puffs from the inhaler.

For children aged 4-11, 1-2 puffs can be taken at a time. Children should always be supervised when using an inhaler.

Is Ventolin (Salbutamol) suitable for me?

It is suitable for use in those over the age of 4 who are suffering from asthma symptoms. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, think you may be pregnant, or are planning a pregnancy, it is not recommended that you use salbutamol – before starting any treatment, consult a healthcare professional. Do not use Salbutamol if you are allergic to salbutamol or any of its other ingredients. It is important to note that Salbutamol contains lactose which may cause an allergic reaction.

Is Salbutamol a steroid? 

No, salbutamol is fast acting bronchodilator and belongs to class of medicines know as selective β2-adrenoceptor agonist. Salbutamol works by relaxing the smooth muscles in the airways which allows air to flow in and out of the lungs easily.
