Asthma is a respiratory or breathing problem that has become a common health condition worldwide. There are millions of people suffering from this condition. Usually, we tend to ignore a respiratory problem in initial phase but it can be dangerous to the airways in the end. Many experts recommend Asthalin HFA Inhaler to ease this condition or improve breathing. The maker of this inhaler, Cipla Ltd. claims that this respiratory medicine is safe, effective and affordable. It is a generic medicine and can be used under prescription.
What does Asthalin contain?
Asthalin contains 100-mcg salbutamol per metered dose, a form of beta-agonist and bronchodilator, which is very effective to relieve you from breathing problem. These ingredients can effectively treat the symptoms of asthma and bronchitis as well as breathing shortness and wheeze by clearing the obstructions in airways.
The function of Asthalin:
The usual cause of asthma is a contraction in the muscles surrounding the bronchiole, narrowing the airways (the condition is called bronchioles in the lungs). The 100-mcg salbutamol available in the Asthalin works as a bronchodilator that can clear that blockage of the airways. The beta-receptors of this medicine can relax the contracted muscles of the airways in order to allow smooth breathing. The small dose of Asthalin HFA Inhaler is enough to open airways and make your breath easy.
