Albuterol (Ventolin, Proair, Proventil) is an inexpensive drug used to treat asthma and COPD. It is more popular than comparable drugs. It is available in generic and brand versions. Generic albuterol is covered by most Medicare and insurance plans, but some pharmacy coupons or cash prices may be lower.
