Ventolin Nebules contain a medicine called salbutamol, and belongs to a group of medicines called bronchodilators.

Ventolin Nebules are used to treat breathing problems in people with asthma and other chest illnesses.

They are usually given to people who suffer seriously from these conditions when other forms of treatment do not help enough.

Ventolin Nebules are also given to treat severe attacks of asthma.

Salbutamol, also known as albuterol and sold under the brand name Ventolin among others, is a medication that opens up the medium and large airways in the lungs. It is a short-acting β2 adrenergic receptor agonist that causes relaxation of airway smooth muscle. It is used to treat asthma, including asthma attacks and exercise-induced bronchoconstriction, as well as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It may also be used to treat high blood potassium levels. Salbutamol is usually used with an inhaler or nebulizer, but it is also available in a pill, liquid, and intravenous solution. Onset of action of the inhaled version is typically within 15 minutes and lasts for two to six hours.
