Acute (sudden) asthma symptoms are quickly relieved or eliminated by short-acting bronchodilators. They last between 3-6. A rescue inhaler is another term for a short-acting bronchodilator.
Bronchodilators are often administered through various inhalation devices such as metered-dose inhalers, dry powder inhalers, and nebulizers. The increased demand for bronchodilators correlates with a higher demand for these medical devices, as patients require appropriate inhalation devices for effective drug delivery. The primary function of bronchodilators is to relax the smooth muscles lining the airways (bronchi and bronchioles). By stimulating the beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscles, bronchodilators cause the muscles to relax, resulting in the dilation or widening of the airways. This allows for improved airflow and easier breathing. These factors may anticipate in the growth of United Kingdom Bronchodilators Market.
