Ventolin (Salbutamol) is a medication used to treat acute asthma symptoms, such as difficulty in breathing and coughing. It is also sometimes used to prevent breathing difficulties after surgery.
Ventolin is also sometimes prescribed to prevent wheezing or shortness of breath. It works by relaxing the airways in the lungs, making it easier for the air to pass through.
Ventolin is usually taken for a short time before going to sleep, but this can be increased as needed, to help with sleepiness and breathing difficulties.
This medication can help you to stay well, and to avoid sudden weight gain.
Ventolin is supplied in a 4mg or 8mg dosage (2 inhalations/uffs in a 24-hour period).
You can buy Ventolin as tablets or as a liquid in the form of a syrup. The usual dose is 1 syrup (as a tablet).
The usual recommended dose is 4-6 tablets per dose, depending on your condition and how your body reacts to the medication.

The dose of Ventolin is usually increased every 6 hours, and the medication can be repeated for as long as it is needed.

What is Asthma?
Asthma is a common lung condition that causes occasional breathing difficulties.
It affects people of all ages and often starts in childhood, although it can also develop for the first time in adults.
There’s currently no cure, but there are simple treatments that can help keep the symptoms under control so it doesn’t have a big impact on your life.
Symptoms
The main symptoms of asthma are:
● Wheezing (a whistling sound when breathing) ● Breathlessness ● A tight chest, which may feel like a band is tightening around it ● Coughing
The symptoms can sometimes get temporarily worse. This is known as an asthma attack.
Several conditions can cause similar symptoms, so it’s important to get a proper diagnosis and correct treatment.
Your GP will usually be able to diagnose asthma by asking about symptoms and carrying out some simple tests.
Treatments
The main types are:
● Reliever inhalers – used when needed to quickly relieve asthma symptoms (salbutamol) ● Preventer inhalers (steroid) – used every day to prevent asthma symptoms occurring ● Some people also need to take tablets.
Causes and triggers
Asthma is caused by swelling (inflammation) of the breathing tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs. This makes the tubes highly sensitive, so they temporarily narrow.
It may occur randomly or after exposure to a trigger. Common asthma triggers include:
● Allergies – to house dust mites, animal fur or pollen, for example ● Smoke, pollution and cold air ● Exercise ● Infections like colds or flu ● Identifying and avoiding your asthma triggers can help you keep your symptoms under control
