Salbutamol & Reliever Medicines

Reliever medicines used for immediate asthma symptom control, available as inhalers, nebuliser solutions, syrups and tablets.

Before you buy

Reliever and preventer medicines have different roles and are not substitutes for one another. Device type matters as much as the molecule, since technique differs between inhaler formats. Some products in this section require a prescription, and the product page states where that applies. Needing a reliever more often than usual is a sign to see your doctor, and severe breathlessness requires emergency care rather than repeat dosing at home.
