Medicine Description broncholine-s 30ml
broncholine s 30ml inhalation is a medication that contains Salbutamol, a selective beta-2 adrenergic agonist. Upon administration via inhalation, Salbutamol binds to the beta-2 adrenergic receptors located in the smooth muscle lining of the airways. This binding triggers a cascade of intracellular events that lead to the activation of adenylate cyclase, resulting in an increased production of cyclic AMP (cAMP). Elevated cAMP levels promote relaxation of the bronchial smooth muscle, leading to bronchodilation. Consequently, this helps to alleviate symptoms associated with asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) by widening the air passages and improving airflow, thus reducing shortness of breath, wheezing, and coughing.
