A beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist known as salbutamol is used to treat COPD, bronchitis, and asthma, and to avoid exercise-induced bronchospasms. Salbutamol is often used to treat sudden attacks of bronchospasm brought on by bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, and other long-term bronchopulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To prevent asthma brought on by exercise, it is also utilised.
Salbutamol, a short-acting, selective beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist, is used to treat both COPD and asthma. Because it is 29 times more selective for beta2 receptors than beta1 receptors, it exhibits higher selectivity for pulmonary beta receptors as compared to beta1-adrenergic receptors present in the heart. Salbutamol is produced by combining the R- and S-isomers in a racemic reaction. The S-isomer has been linked to toxicity, while the R-isomer has a 150 times stronger affinity for beta2 receptors. Levalbuterol, the sole R-isomer of salbutamol, was created as a result. Levalbuterol is an enantiomerically pure form of salbutamol, but it is more expensive, preventing widespread usage.

Salbutamol is prescribed for the acute prophylaxis against exercise-induced bronchospasm and other stimuli known to cause bronchospasm, as well as the symptomatic relief and prevention of bronchospasm brought on by bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, reversible obstructive pulmonary disease, and other chronic bronchopulmonary disorders in which bronchospasm is a complicating factor
In vitro and in vivo pharmacologic studies have shown that salbutamol acts preferentially on beta2-adrenergic receptors as compared to isoproterenol. Beta2-adrenoceptors make up 10% to 50% of all beta-adrenoceptors in the human heart, even though beta1 adrenoceptors predominate in the heart and beta2 adrenoceptors are the main adrenergic receptors in bronchial smooth muscle. Even though their precise function is uncertain, the existence of these receptors implies that even selective beta2-agonists may have cardiac effects.
Airway smooth muscle beta2-adrenergic receptors are activated, increasing the intracellular concentration of cyclic-3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate and activating adenyl. This increase in cyclic AMP triggers the activation of protein kinase A, which stops myosin from being phosphorylated and lowers intracellular calcium levels, leading the muscle to relax. Salbutamol can relax the smooth muscles that line all airways, from the trachea to the terminal bronchioles. Salbutamol acts as a functional antagonist to open the airway and protect against all bronchoconstrictor threats, regardless of whatever spasmogen is present. A decrease in the release of mediators from mast cells into the airway is also associated with higher levels of cyclic AMP.
Adult: In patients with reversible obstructive pulmonary disease, treatment, and prevention of One or two inhalations every 4-6 hours using a metered-dose aerosol or dry powder inhaler (90 or 100 mcg/actuation). Daily maximum: 800 mcg.
Child: 4–11 years as a metered-dose aerosol or dry powder inhaler 1 or 2 breaths; 12 years old like an adult dosage.
