Arolax Tablet 2 mg contains Levosalbutamol (Levalbuterol), a selective beta-2 adrenergic agonist used for the relief and management of bronchospasm associated with conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It works as a bronchodilator, helping to relax airway muscles and improve breathing.
Levosalbutamol is the active (R-enantiomer) form of salbutamol, designed to provide effective bronchodilation with potentially fewer side effects. It helps open narrowed airways, making breathing easier and reducing symptoms such as wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath.
Arolax Tablet is commonly used as part of a broader respiratory treatment plan and may be prescribed for both acute symptom relief and maintenance therapy depending on the patient’s condition.
