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

Ventolin Salbutamol (100mcg) CFC-Free Inhalerursed_salam(100mcg) Salbutamol (100mcg) is a brand name of Ventolin which is a prescription medication used to treat bronchospasm in patients with reversible obstructive airway disease (i.e. chronic obstructive pulmonary disease). Ventolin is also known as albuterol sulfate. Ventolin is a bronchodilator, meaning that it works by relaxing the muscles in the airway, making it easier to access and delay airway opening. Its primary function is to prevent bronchial asthma from developing and may help prevent symptoms such as shortness of breath, wheezing, chest tightness, coughing, and shortness of breath. It belongs to a class of drugs called beta-adrenergic agonists, which work by relaxing the muscles in the airway, thereby making it easier to access and delay airway opening. This reliever inhaler is best used with a mask to reduce the risk of sudden wheezing or breathing difficulty when inhaled. It can be used in adults and children over 12 years of age who are at risk for bronchospasm. The Ventolin counter in Healthylife can be used in some cases where an inhaler is not appropriate or when a patient does not have access to a mask or an inhaler. Always read the label and follow the directions for use on pack. If symptoms worsen, seek medical attention immediately.
