Results for tag: "Bambuterol"

Bambuterol is a long-acting beta-2 agonist (LABA) used to treat asthma. It is a bronchodilator, meaning it helps to open up the airways in the lungs, making it easier to breathe. Bambuterol is usually prescribed in combination with an inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) to provide long-term control of asthma symptoms. It is also used to prevent asthma attacks. Bambuterol is available in both tablet and inhaler form. Bambuterol is a relatively new drug, and is not as widely used as other LABAs such as salmeterol and formoterol. However, it has been shown to be effective in controlling asthma symptoms and preventing asthma attacks. It is also generally well-tolerated, with few side effects. Bambuterol is marketed by several pharmaceutical companies, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck, and Teva Pharmaceuticals. It is also available in generic form from several generic drug manufacturers.
