Salbutamol

A short-acting beta2-agonist bronchodilator that relaxes the muscles around the airways in the lungs, making it easier to breathe.

Theophylline

A methylxanthine bronchodilator that also relaxes airway muscles and can reduce inflammation in the lungs.

Treatment of reversible airway obstruction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)

Relief of bronchospasm in asthma

Prevention of exerciseinduced bronchospasm

Salbutamol acts by stimulating beta2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, leading to bronchodilation. Theophylline's mechanism is more complex, involving inhibition of phosphodiesterase, resulting in increased cAMP levels and smooth muscle relaxation. It also possesses anti-inflammatory properties.
