Allergic Conditions: Beta2-Agonists
Beta2-agonists are a group of drugs that are used in the treatment of asthma for short-acting quick relief, long-term 12-hour control, and for preventing exercise-induced bronchospasm. The bronchial smooth muscle relaxes in response to the beta2-adrenergic receptor stimulation.
