How it works

From the US prescribing label for the same active substance (Albuterol). It describes the substance, not this exact product.

The primary action of beta-adrenergic agonist drugs, including albuterol, is to stimulate adenyl cyclase, the enzyme which catalyzes the formation of cyclic-3',5'- adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in beta-adrenergic cells.

The cyclic AMP thus formed mediates the cellular responses.
