Detailed explanation-1: -Bronchodilators also help clear mucus from your lungs. As your airways open, mucus moves more freely, which allows you to cough mucus out of your body easily. Bronchodilators are primarily available as inhalers and nebulizer (a battery-powered machine that creates a fine spray) solutions.
Detailed explanation-2: -Beta agonists Short-acting beta-2 agonists (eg, albuterol) 2 puffs every 4 hours inhaled as needed are the drug of choice for relieving acute bronchoconstriction and preventing exercise-induced asthma. They should not be used alone for long-term maintenance of chronic asthma.
Detailed explanation-3: -Beta-adrenergic bronchodilators dilate bronchial airways by relaxing the muscles that surround the airways.
