Used for the treatment and prevention of asthma symptoms, including bronchoconstriction and allergic respiratory conditions. May also be prescribed for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction.
Albuterol relaxes bronchial smooth muscle for rapid symptom relief; theophylline provides sustained bronchodilation by relaxing airway muscles; ketotifen stabilizes mast cells to prevent allergic reactions and reduce inflammation.
May cause side effects including tremor, tachycardia, insomnia, or GI upset. Theophylline has a narrow therapeutic index requiring blood level monitoring. Should be used as prescribed; not for acute bronchospasm relief in place of rescue inhalers. Avoid use during pregnancy unless clearly needed.
