Buterol Tablet contains Bambuterol Hydrochloride 10 mg, a long-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist used for the treatment and prevention of bronchospasm in respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Bambuterol is a prodrug of Terbutaline, which is gradually converted in the body to provide prolonged bronchodilation. This ensures sustained relief from wheezing, breathlessness, and chest tightness, making it suitable for long-term maintenance therapy.

Composition

• Active Ingredient: Bambuterol Hydrochloride

Mechanism of Action

Bambuterol is a long-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist (LABA). It stimulates beta-2 receptors in the bronchial smooth muscles, increasing cyclic AMP levels, which relaxes the airways. This bronchodilation improves airflow, reduces bronchospasm, and helps control chronic respiratory symptoms.

As a prodrug, Bambuterol is slowly metabolized into Terbutaline, providing extended duration of action, typically allowing for once or twice daily dosing.
