Allergic Conditions: Beta2-Agonists

Beta2-Agonists are a group of drugs that are used in the treatment of asthma for short-acting quick relief, long-term 12 hour control, and for preventing exercise-induced bronchospasm. The bronchial smooth muscle relaxes in response to the beta2-adrenergic receptor stimulation.

Resources about beta2-agonists:

Please visit an allergist for more information on allergic disease and your individual medical condition. If you need to locate an allergist in your area, visit the Academy’s online Physician Referral Directory.
