   The proposed mechanism is that while LABAs relieve asthma symptoms, they can also promote bronchial inflammation and sensitivity without warning. [23] On February 18, 2011, the FDA issued a safety alert for long-acting β agonists. [24]

3. Beta2-adrenergic agonist - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta2-adrenergic_agonist

   Beta 2-adrenergic agonists, also known as adrenergic β 2 receptor agonists, are a class of drugs that act on the β 2 adrenergic receptor. Like other β adrenergic agonists , they cause smooth muscle relaxation. β 2 adrenergic agonists' effects on smooth muscle cause dilation of bronchial passages , vasodilation in muscle and liver ...

   Long-acting β2-adrenergic agonist (Salmeterol) Long-acting β2-adrenergic agonists, for example, vilanterol, indacaterol, olodaterol, formoterol and salmeterol, are commonly used together with inhaled corticosteroid in maintenance treatment. [2] [7]

   It was marketed in 1990. Formoterol, another long-acting β 2-agonist, was marketed shortly after. This long duration of action made the treatment for severe asthma and COPD more convenient for the patients because it is inhaled twice a day. [1] In 2013 an extra long-acting β 2-agonist, vilanterol, was marketed. Its duration of action lasts ...

7. Formoterol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formoterol

   The 2022 Global Initiative for Asthma report [3] recommends a combination formoterol/inhaled corticosteroid inhaler as both a preventer and reliever treatment for asthma in adults. In children, a short-acting β 2 adrenergic agonist (e.g., salbutamol) is still recommended. It was patented in 1972 and came into medical use in 1998. [4]

8. Salmeterol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salmeterol

   Salmeterol is a long-acting β 2 adrenergic receptor agonist (LABA) used in the treatment and prevention of asthma symptoms and control of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) symptoms. [2] Symptoms of bronchospasm include shortness of breath, wheezing, coughing and chest tightness.

9. Clenbuterol - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clenbuterol

   Clenbuterol is approved for use in some countries as a bronchodilator for asthma. [medical citation needed]Clenbuterol is a β 2 agonist with some structural and pharmacological similarities to epinephrine and salbutamol, but its effects are more potent and longer-lasting as a stimulant and thermogenic drug.
