Salbair-B Transhaler

Salbair-B Transhaler is a combination inhaler used to manage asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other bronchospastic conditions. It provides quick relief from wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness while also helping in long-term control of inflammation in the airways.

Composition

• Salbutamol Sulfate (fast-acting bronchodilator)

• Budesonide (inhaled corticosteroid)

Uses

• Relief of acute bronchospasm in asthma

• Long-term management of asthma and COPD

• Prevention of exercise-induced bronchoconstriction

• Reduction of inflammation, wheezing, and coughing

How It Works

Salbair-B Transhaler combines two active ingredients. Salbutamol relaxes the smooth muscles in the airways, opening the bronchial passages for quick relief. Budesonide is a corticosteroid that reduces inflammation in the lungs, preventing flare-ups and improving long-term respiratory health. The combination provides both immediate relief and ongoing control of symptoms.
