Uses
Aerocort is a medicine often prescribed to people for treating Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis.

How it works

Levosalbutamol can also treat Asthma, a lung disease caused by Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD).
Levosalbutamol works by relaxing the muscles in the airways and opening up the airways. This makes it easier to breathe.
Also, it can help people who have trouble breathing, like puffy breathing.
The medicine helps the lungs breathe better by relaxing the muscles in the airways.
