ProAir RespiClick (albuterol sulfate) is a prescription inhaler used to quickly open the airways in the lungs, with the goal of providing relief from acute asthma symptoms, exercise-induced bronchospasm, and intermittent breathing difficulties. It belongs to a class of medications known as short-acting beta-agonists (SABAs), which work by relaxing the muscles in the airways to make breathing easier. ProAir RespiClick delivers medication in a dry powder form and is breath-actuated, meaning it automatically releases a dose when you inhale properly.
This inhaler is commonly prescribed for on-demand use during asthma exacerbations or prior to exercise to prevent airway constriction. It is designed for rapid onset of action, helping to relieve symptoms like wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness.
