		Albuterol is a moderately selective beta2-receptor agonist widely used as a bronchodilator in the management of exacerbations of asthma or other chronic obstructive airway diseases.
		Albuterol is a moderately selective beta2-adrenergic agonist that stimulates receptors of the smooth muscle in the lungs, uterus, and vasculature supplying skeletal muscle.
		The net result of albuterol binding to beta2-receptors in the lungs is relaxation of bronchial smooth muscles, which in turn relieves bronchospasm, reduces airway resistance, facilitates mucous drainage, and increases vital capacity.

	Albuterol Profile
		Albuterol is often thought of as a "shorter acting" version of Clen…and, to draw an analogy, when we look at the steroids which are shorter acting versions (think about comparing something like Testosterone Propionate vs./ Cypionate, or NPP vs./ Deca)- they typically produce more dramatic results a bit quicker than their long acting cousins.
		Albuterol is a beta-2 agonist with a shorter acting effect than Clenbuterol.
		Albuterol has been shown to increase muscle size (3-6) as well as strength and endurance (3) (*while people have anecdotally reported that Clen seems to lower their aerobic capacity.

	Questions and Answers on Albuterol
		Albuterol MDIs have historically used the chlorofluorocarbons trichlorofluoromethane (CFC-11) and dichlorodifluoromethane (CFC-12) as propellants, both of which are potent and previously common ODSs.
		It is important that patients who use albuterol CFC MDIs talk with their doctors about the phase-out of the CFC products to establish the timing and manner of their move to HFA albuterol MDIs or other product/medication.
		While HHS/FDA have previously found the albuterol MDIs safe and effective, and through this rule found them good alternatives, they are somewhat different (in taste, delivery feel and other attributes) and patients should anticipate this as they consider their switch to the newer products.
