Asthalin tablets are typically administered as oral therapy for the treatment of wheezing, difficulty in breathing, chest tightness, and coughing in patients suffering from lungs diseases such as asthma, emphysema, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
Asthalin tablets (Generic Ventolin tablets) are basically known as bronchodilators because it opens up the breathing passages and exerts a relaxing effect on the smooth muscles of the airways. This allows the easy passage of air in and out of the lungs. Albuterol tablets (Asthalin) cannot be administered in cases of sudden breathing attacks. For such sudden breathing attacks, doctors usually recommend a quick-relief inhaler during the course of treatment with Salbutamol Sulphate tablets.

Try to maintain a regular schedule for the medication such that you take Salbutamol Sulphate tablets at the same time every day, to get the maximum benefit of the medication.
Doctors usually recommend a dosage of 8 mg administered every 12 hours in adults and children over 12 years of age. In some patients, a dosage of 4 mg Salbutamol Sulphate tablets provides an adequate result. In children between the ages of 6 and 12 years, the recommended dosage is 4 mg every 12 hours. Your doctor may alter the dosage of Albuterol tablets and dosage period depending on your response to treatment.

For such sudden breathing cases, doctors usually recommend a quick-relief inhaler during the course of treatment with Asthalin tablets.

Asthalin Mechanism of Action - How Does Albuterol Work?

Albuterol (Generic Ventolin tablets) is a beta-2-adrenergic agonist, which stimulates the beta-2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs resulting in the relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles. Evidence suggests that Asthalin tablets stimulate the enzyme adenylate cyclase to increase the production of cAMP in the cell. The beneficial effects of Asthalin tablets are facilitated by the production of cAMP molecules. Increased intracellular cyclic AMP results in an increase in the activity of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A. Protein Kinase A is an enzyme which prevents the phosphorylation of myosin and reduces the concentration of calcium levels. Reduced intracellular calcium levels results in the relaxation of smooth muscles and bronchodilation. Apart from its benefits in bronchodilation, Salbutamol Sulphate tablets also prevent the activity of bronchoconstricting agents released from mast cells, hinders microvascular leakage, and improves mucociliary clearance.
