ALBUTEROL is the rescue bell, not silence for a worsening fire.

Relief or prevention of bronchospasm in indicated patients. Relaxes airway smooth muscle through beta-2 stimulation. Key safety: Tachycardia, tremor and paradoxical bronchospasm; increasing need signals deterioration. Monitor: Symptom frequency, rescue use and inhaler technique. Counseling: Seek reassessment if usual rescue relief is inadequate.

An asthma patient needs albuterol much more often than usual. Which response is best?

A. Reassess disease control and the treatment plan.

B. Simply increase rescue use indefinitely without reviewing control.

C. Stop the controller because frequent rescue response proves it is unnecessary.

D. Treat each extra use as evidence of improving baseline asthma.
