Primatene is a medication used to bring temporary
relief from asthma symptoms. Asthma is a serious
disease and it's very important to know about the
medication that is used for its treatment, its dosage
and the symptoms it prevents and treats. Your doctor
will identify your personal symptoms and the way
you can avoid and relief them according to your individual
physiological characteristics and the type of your
asthma's triggers. Knowing more about them you, your
relatives and friends can prevent allergic reactions
and severe symptoms. There are allergic triggers
(household dust, roaches, plants, animals, certain
medication, food additives, mold) and non-allergic
triggers (heating units, outdoor air pollution, respiratory
infections, wood smoke, tobacco smoke, household
cleaning products, changes in weather, exercise).
All of them cause in asthmatic and allergic person
wheezing, cough, tightness in chest, shortness of
breath. All these symptoms can be relieved by a bronchodilator
and expectorant such as Primatene.
Primatene
contains ephedrine HCL and guaifenesin as active
ingredients. They restore free breathing and loosen
phlegm. Guaifenesin acts on definite receptors
and causes the decrease in the thickness of bronchial
secretions. Drawing water into bronchi it gets
bronchial passageways rid of bothersome mucus.
Ephedrine acts on ?-receptors causing vasoconstriction
in blood vessels and on ?-receptors causing increased
heart rate and contractility. Due to its decongestant
and bronchodilator properties ephedrine really
helps in treating asthma and allergy. Ephedrine
is also widely used in weight loss products because
it is a strong appetite suppressant and increases
metabolism to burn fat cells in a quick and easy
way.
