There are significant differences between Albuterol and Symbicort inhalers. Symbicort is an inhalant corticosteroid that works as a dilator on the lungs and airways. It works in two ways: reducing inflammation (one of the leading causes of asthma attacks), and also helps to open the airways, thus improving the percentage of the airflow quality in a patient. Albuterol is used only as a rescue inhaler for asthmatic patients. It works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and spasms that are a side effect of an asthma attack. Albuterol is not used to prevent asthma attacks; it only works effectively when treating an asthma attack. Therefore, it should be used on an as needed basis. Symbicort is a preventative and maintenance inhaler for asthmatic patients.Reference: www.drugs.com
Albuterol is used to prevent and treat wheezing, difficulty breathing, chest tightness, and coughing caused by lung diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD; a group of diseases that affect the lungs and airways). Albuterol is in a class of medications called bronchodilators. It works by relaxing and opening the air passages to the lungs to make breathing easier. Albuterol comes as a tablet, a syrup, and an extended-release (long-acting) tablet to take by mouth. The tablets and syrup are usually taken three or four times a day.
