The blue inhaler, also known as a reliever or rescue inhaler, is commonly used to treat asthma symptoms quickly and effectively. It contains a medication called a short-acting beta agonist (SABA), such as albuterol or salbutamol. SABAs work by quickly relaxing the muscles around the airways in the lungs. This action opens up the airways, making it easier to breathe. During an asthma attack or when experiencing symptoms like wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath, the airways become narrowed due to inflammation and muscle constriction. The bronchodilator in the blue inhaler helps to reverse this constriction promptly, providing rapid relief of symptoms.
