AIRSUPRA is a fixed-dose combination of albuterol sulfate (short-acting beta-2 agonist) and budesonide (inhaled corticosteroid) delivered as a metered-dose aerosol for asthma maintenance and rescue therapy. It combines rapid bronchodilation with anti-inflammatory effects through corticosteroid hormone receptor agonism. This dual-action inhaler addresses both acute symptoms and underlying airway inflammation in asthma patients.
