What is Combivent Respimat

Salbutamol

The Generic name of this drug

Treatment Summary

Salbutamol is a medication that helps to open up the airways in people with asthma or COPD. It works by stimulating beta2-adrenergic receptors, which are located in the lungs, more than the beta1-adrenergic receptors in the heart. Salbutamol is a mixture of two isomers, R- and S-isomers, and the R-isomer has 150 times greater affinity for the beta2-receptor. A single R-isomer version of salbutamol, levalbuterol, was developed, but it is more expensive than salbutamol,

Effectiveness

How Combivent Respimat Affects Patients

Salbutamol (also known as albuterol) is a medicine used to open up airways and make breathing easier. It works by stimulating beta-1 and beta-2 receptors in the body, which can result in increased heart rate and relaxed muscles. Taking salbutamol can also cause changes in blood sugar and insulin levels. Additionally, it can cause potassium levels in the blood to drop. Levalbuterol is a related medication that contains only the R-enantiomer of salbutamol, and may have fewer side effects.

How Combivent Respimat works in the body

Salbutamol is a medication that relaxes the airways in the lungs. It works by activating beta2-adrenergic receptors, which then increases cyclic-3′,5′-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) levels. This increase in cyclic AMP leads to the relaxation of the smooth muscles in the airways, allowing air to flow more easily. Salbutamol also inhibits the release of mediators from mast cells in the airways. Compared to similar medications, salbutamol has fewer cardiovascular effects. When inhaled, salbutamol usually starts to work

Patient Q&A Section about combivent respimat

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Is COMBIVENT RESPIMAT a rescue inhaler?

"Symbicort is also approved to treat asthma in adults and children ages 6 years and older. However, it is not meant to be used as a rescue medication for COPD for immediate breathing relief."

Answered by AI

Is combivent the same as albuterol?

"Combivent Respimat is used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Albuterol sulfate is used to treat or prevent bronchospasm in people with reversible obstructive airway disease. Albuterol is also used as a preventative measure against exercise-induced bronchospasm."

Answered by AI

Is COMBIVENT RESPIMAT a steroid inhaler?

"No, Combivent Respimat (ipratropium / albuterol) is not a steroid. It contains two medications that help relax and open up the airways in your lungs. It works differently from steroids, which help to reduce inflammation (swelling) in the lungs."

Answered by AI

What is COMBIVENT RESPIMAT inhaler used for?

"This product is used to treat and prevent symptoms (wheezing and shortness of breath) caused by ongoing lung disease, such as bronchitis and emphysema. This product contains 2 medications: ipratropium and albuterol (also known as salbutamol)."

Behavioral Nudge Texts for Flu Vaccination

Any Age
All Sexes
Aurora, CO

Influenza infection leads to significant morbidity and mortality each year. Influenza vaccines can reduce the risk of flu and the severity of flu illness, In addition, flu vaccinations can reduce flu complications such as pneumonia or worsening of chronic heart or lung disease. Each year, Kaiser Permanente of Colorado offers influenza vaccines to patients at no cost either at primary care clinic appointments or flu walk-in clinics in the fall prior to the upcoming flu season. In addition, as part of clinic appointment reminder text messages, there is a message to get the flu vaccine for patients who have not received the vaccine prior to the clinic visit. Building on these flu reminder text messages for patients who have not received a flu vaccine, this study will test different behavioral nudge text messages to improve influenza vaccination rates.

Antibiotic Duration for Infections in Children

60 - 17
All Sexes
Birmingham, AL

Infections like pneumonia, skin and soft tissue infection (also called SSTI or cellulitis), and urinary tract infections (UTI) are some of the most common reasons children get admitted to the hospital. All three of these conditions require antibiotics for treatment. Although antibiotics are needed to treat the infection and help children feel better, taking them longer than needed can negatively impact children and their families. Negative impacts include things like the burdens of taking more medications and medication side effects. There are guidelines (instructions) from expert medical organizations that suggest the number of days children need antibiotics, but they give a wide range (between 5 and 14 days). Unfortunately, these guidelines are not based on high-quality studies. National data suggests that doctors often choose on the higher end of this range when writing prescriptions for children in the hospital. Our three caregiver co-investigators, other parents of hospitalized children, doctors, other care providers, and researchers, all believe that additional study is needed to determine the best length of antibiotic treatment that weighs both the benefits and harms of antibiotics. The goal of our study is to understand if 5 total days of antibiotic treatment compared to 10 total days of antibiotic treatment is better for children who have been in the hospital for pneumonia, SSTI, or UTI. We will study this question through a randomized control trial. In other words, half of the children will receive 5-days of antibiotics and the other half will receive 10-days of antibiotics. Children in this study (and their caregivers) will not know how many days of antibiotics they will receive to cure their infection because some children will take a placebo (or a pill without antibiotics in it). Only the pharmacy will know if a child is getting antibiotic or placebo (for days 6-10 of treatment). During the first phase of the trial (feasibility phase), 4 hospitals will enroll children in the study. We plan on enrolling 50 patients during this phase. We are starting with just 4 hospitals, so our study team can create and update our study plans if needed. We will closely review information about how many patients and families agree to participate, and if they have any trouble completing any part of the study. We will also interview families to understand the choice to participate in the study, the choice not to participate in the study, and what it is like to be in the study. During the second study phase, we will enroll 1150 more patients across all 11 hospitals. Families will complete short, daily surveys until the 15th day after they started antibiotics, then a larger survey at day 15, at day 20, and at day 30. These surveys will ask about the child's symptoms and recovery from their illness, how the antibiotics are making them feel, and if they had to go back to their doctor, emergency room, or hospital. The answers to these questions will be combined to measure how well the child did, balancing feeling better and having bad effects from the antibiotics. We will use mathematical tests to determine which antibiotic duration is better for treating these illnesses. We will complete other mathematical tests to see if all children should receive the same length of antibiotics or if certain children should be prescribed shorter courses and others longer courses.

Background: Influenza (flu) infections are a serious global health threat. Each year, between 3 and 5 million people get the flu, and up to 500,000 die from it. Current vaccines protect against seasonal flus, but broader vaccines are needed to protect against potential flu pandemics. Objective: To test an experimental flu vaccine. Eligibility: Healthy people aged 18 to 55 years. Design: The study will last 5 to 8 months and has 2 phases, A and B. The study vaccine will be given either as a shot in the arm or as a nasal spray. Participants will receive 1 of 3 combinations: (1) study vaccine in the nose and placebo in the arm; (2) placebo in the nose and study vaccine in the arm; or (3) placebo in the nose and placebo in the arm. A placebo is just like the real vaccine but contains no active ingredients. Phase A: Participants will have 5 clinic visits over 56 days. They will receive a shot and a nasal spray at 2 of the visits, 28 days apart. At each visit, they will have a physical exam, with tests of their blood, urine, and nasal secretions. They will check their temperature at home and record any symptoms for 7 days after each vaccine. Phase B: Participants will stay in the hospital for at least 9 days. They will be infected with a flu virus. They will provide blood, urine, and nasal fluid samples. They will have tests of their heart function. They will remain in the hospital until they test negative for the flu 2 days in a row. They will have 2 follow-up visits, 4 and 8 weeks after leaving the hospital.
