mechanism of action
BRONCHODILATOR - Dialates bronchioles of lung by relaxing smooth muscle of bronchioles. Prevents spasms or & contractions. Allows better airway exchange. May assist in removing mucus & other debris that cause congestion in lungs
-
mechanism of action
CORTICOSTEROID
(ANTI-INFALMMATORY) - May decrease number & activity of inflammatory cells, increase effects of drugs whic dilate,prevent narrowing or relax smooth muscles of airway of lung. Inhalation gives local effects and decreases side effects.
-
mechanism of action
ANTICHOLINERIC
(PARASYMPATHOLYTIC) - Antagonizes the action of acetylecholine, dialation of large airws, dries up secretions.
-
mechanism of action
MAST CELL INHIBITOR - Antiasthmatic, antiallergic stabilizer of mast cells, decreases narrowing of airwas due to histamine reaction,decrease severity of allergy attack.
-
mechanism of action
MUCOLYTIC - decreases the thickness of mucous secretions of the lung, making it easier to cough up.
-
mechanism of action
MUCOLYTIC ENZYME - This enzyme selectively cleaves DNA. It is use in cystic fibrosis patients to break up the thick pumonary secretions which contain ver high concentrations of DNA.
