Albuterol (
Ventolin,
Proair,
Proventil) is an inexpensive drug used to treat and prevent bronchospasm. This drug is more popular than comparable drugs. There are brand-name versions of albuterol available, but they are not interchangeable. Generic albuterol is covered by most Medicare and insurance plans, but some pharmacy coupons or cash may be lower. With the Patient Assistance Program from HealthWell Foundation, contact the program to see how they can financially help you out.
