Indications

Combair Inhaler is indicated for:

• Bronchial asthma
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema
• Relief and prevention of bronchospasm

Mechanism of Action

• Salbutamol: A short-acting beta-2 adrenergic agonist that relaxes bronchial smooth muscles, leading to rapid bronchodilation and relief from breathing difficulty.

Together, these two agents provide a synergistic effect for improved airway opening and sustained symptom relief.
