What is Asthma?
Asthma is a common lung condition that causes occasional breathing difficulties.
It affects people of all ages and often starts in childhood, although it can also develop for the first time in adults.
There’s currently no cure, but there are simple treatments that can help keep the symptoms under control so it doesn’t have a big impact on your life.
Symptoms
The main symptoms of asthma are:
● Wheezing (a whistling sound when breathing) ● Breathlessness ● A tight chest, which may feel like a band is tightening around it ● Coughing
The symptoms can sometimes get temporarily worse. This is known as an asthma attack.
Several conditions can cause similar symptoms, so it’s important to get a proper diagnosis and correct treatment.
Your GP will usually be able to diagnose asthma by asking about symptoms and carrying out some simple tests.
Treatments
The main types are:
● Reliever inhalers – used when needed to quickly relieve asthma symptoms (salbutamol) ● Preventer inhalers (steroid) – used every day to prevent asthma symptoms occurring ● Some people also need to take tablets.
Causes and triggers
Asthma is caused by swelling (inflammation) of the breathing tubes that carry air in and out of the lungs. This makes the tubes highly sensitive, so they temporarily narrow.
It may occur randomly or after exposure to a trigger. Common asthma triggers include:
● Allergies – to house dust mites, animal fur or pollen, for example ● Smoke, pollution and cold air ● Exercise ● Infections like colds or flu ● Identifying and avoiding your asthma triggers can help you keep your symptoms under control

Need an effective and affordable inhaler? Check out our updated guide to asthma relief for you!
One of the best things about asthma medication is how it works, how it works in your system, how it works in your lungs and how fast it works. These are just a few of the many uses of Ventolin, and many others.
Ventolin is a common reliever inhaler that comes in the form of a syrup. It contains the active ingredient salbutamol, a bronchodilator that helps to relax the muscles and blood vessels in your airways. The inhaler is a blue, extended-release, blue plastic tube that contains an active ingredient called salbutamol, which belongs to a group of medicines called beta-2 adrenergic receptors. This means it relaxes the muscles and blood vessels in your airways, which helps to open up the airways to provide oxygen and nutrients to your lungs.
You can use Ventolin inhalers on both the front and back of your lungs. It is available in several different strengths, but you will find Ventolin inhalers available in both the upper and lower brands in both of our pharmacies. The recommended starting dose is one puff of Ventolin in your mouth. Your doctor may start you on a lower dose and adjust the strength of your inhaler, depending on how you respond to it. If you are allergic to salbutamol, your doctor may prescribe a lower dose. You should follow your doctor’s instructions and only use the inhaler as directed. If you have difficulty using the inhaler and experience any negative side effects, stop using the inhaler and call your doctor right away.
The best way to use Ventolin inhalers is through a simple technique called ‘open air inhalation.’ It works by releasing the active ingredient into the airways during inhalation. Ventolin inhalers come in different types, including the different brands and strengths. The inhaler is easy to use and works fast.
It is important to note that it is not a cure for asthma or other breathing conditions. Instead, it is a symptom-free alternative to using a cold air humidifier, a nebulizer or a nebulizer gun. It is also possible to use Ventolin inhalers in a non-breathable environment to help relax your airways, but this will depend on how you respond to them.
