DRUGS USED FOR TREATMENT Anti- inflammatories reduce the number of inflammatory cells in the airways and prevent blood vessels from leaking fluid into the airway tissues. (Specially leukotriene inhibitors). Corticosteroids are life-saving in an acute attack or status asthmaticus. These acts as non specific anti-inflammatory agents. (BECLOMETHASONE PROPIONATE) Bronchodilators work by increasing the diameter of the air passages and easing the flow of gases to and from the lungs. (TIOTROPIUM, ADRENALIN, EPHEDRINE, ORCIPRENALIN, SALMETEROL, TERBUTALINE, ISOETHARINE, ) Antitussive suppresses the cough receptors. (CODIENE, DEXTROMETHORPHAN, PRPOXYPHENE) Expectorants and mucolytic agents alter the viscosity of sputum, and promotes the secretion from the bronchial tree. (GLYCEROL GUAICOLATE, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, ACETYLCYSTIENE, AMMONIUM CHLORIDE, BROMHEXINE) Oxygen therapy provides mechanical ventilatory assistance.
