what colour is salbutamol inhaler
Best Answer: Inhaler therapy for asthma can be slightly confusing. It is important that you understand what your different inhalers contain, how they work and when to use them. A blue inhaler contains a short-acting reliever of symptoms (most commonly salbutamol).Salbutamol acts on beta-receptors of the bronchial airways of your lungs.These airways constrict during an asthma attack.ow to your purple inhaler. Purple inhalers are combination inhalers. They contain a long-acting reliever (like salmeterol) and a steroid preventer (like fluticasone propionate). The long acting reliever acts on the same receptors that salbutamol acts on, but they bind for much longer.
