If you're looking for strong, fast-acting medicine that is safe for general use, you're looking for an albuterol inhaler. Albuterol, also known as salbutamol, is classified as a bronchodilator - a medicine that relaxes the muscles in the passageways that carry air to the lungs, making it easier to breathe. The inhaler allows just about any adult or child to get the most out of the aerosol form of this medicine.

Because the albuterol inhaler projects medicine directly into the lungs, some physicians prefer this method for controlling asthma attacks over oral medication. Oral medication such as tablets and capsules need to be processed by the digestive system before theie essential components can reach the respiratory system, and this takes time. On the other hand, inhalable medicine goes straight through the airways, affecting the necessary organs immediately.

The inhaler must be used regularly in order for its effects to be maximized. Doctors would generally advise a patient to spray it once or twice, every four to six hours... although stronger and more easily triggered asthma attacks may require a higher frequency of use. However, frequent use of the inhaler may lead to mouth injuries such as thrush. Because of this, a spacer has been made in order to increase the amount of albuterol that enters the lungs, and at the same time minimize the amount of medicine that falls into one's mouth.

Asthma is the primary target of the albuterol inhaler. However, it can also be used in treating other diseases that affect the lungs and airways, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary diseases (COPD). COPD is the blanket term for emphysema, chronic bronchitis, and other lung conditions. Usually COPD is brought on by tobacco smoking, although factors such as airborne irritants (coal, silica, cadmium, asbestos, biomass fuel, etc) and congenital conditions would also create it. COPD is often a long-term disease, with the symptoms manifesting early and degenerating into potentially life-threatening ailments.

This inhaler is also used in exercise-related asthma - that is, shortness of breath that is triggered by rigorous physical activity. Allergenic substances do not figure in such cases. If the inhaler is used before you exercise, you can prevent the onset of asthma. The liquid solution form of albuterol can also be used with a nebulizer, along with some other medicines, in order to treat cystic fibrosis. Nebulizers are also used to treat the asthma conditions of people who cannot use inhalers, such as small children or patients who are suffering from extreme asthma attacks.

If you are concerned because some asthma inhalers have been known to contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), worry no longer: CFC inhalers are now being phased out. By 2008, only the ozone-friendly sprayable asthma inhalers that are being developed today will be widely available. Hydrofluoroalkane (HFA) albuterol inhalers have been in production for years, so if you are worried about the environment, make sure to check the nature of your asthma inhaler.

Each canister of aerosol-form albuterol is expected to last approximately 200 sprays. Some albuterol inhalers are known as metered dose inhalers (MDIs) because they come with counters that would help you keep track of how many sprays you have already exhausted. It is best not to tamper with the counter, and to keep it out of the reach of children.
