Short-acting beta agonist / corticosteroid combinations are used to treat asthma. They work by preventing inflammation in the lungs and relaxing airways for improved breathing.
Why are short acting beta agonist corticosteroid combinations prescribed?
Short-acting beta agonist / corticosteroid combinations are used to treat asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and exercise-induced bronchospasm. They work by combining a beta agonist, which helps to relax the muscles around your airways, with a corticosteroid, which reduces inflammation in your airways. These medications are available in inhaler form. An example is albuterol / budesonide (Airsupra).
