Pregnancy Category

Name : Not Classified

Description

FDA has not yet classified the drug into a specified pregnancy category.

Mode of Action

Salbutamol is a direct-acting sympathomimetic with beta-adrenergic activity and selective action on ?2 receptors, producing bronchodilating effects. It also decreases uterine contractility.

Interaction

Diuretics, corticosteroids and xanthines may augment hypokalaemia. CV effects potentiated by MAOIs, TCAs, sympathomimetics. Increases absorption of sulfamethoxazole when used together. May markedly increase heart rate and BP when used with atomoxetine. Reduces serum levels of digoxin. Hypokalaemia induced by salbutamol increases the risk of digitalis toxicity. BP should be closely monitored if linezolid is used concurrently with salbutamol.

Pregnancy Category Note

Pregnancy There are no randomized clinical studies of use during pregnancy Available data from published epidemiological studies and postmarketing case reports of pregnancy outcomes following inhaled albuterol use do not consistently demonstrate a risk of major birth defects or miscarriage In animal reproduction studies, when administered SC to pregnant mice there was evidence of cleft palate at ?9x the maximum recommended human daily inhalation dose (MRHDID) Clinical considerations Disease-associated maternal and/or embryo/fetal risk In women with poorly or moderately controlled asthma, there is an increased risk of preeclampsia in the mother and prematurity, low birth weight, and small for gestational age in the neonate Closely monitor pregnant women and adjust medications as necessary to maintain optimal control Labor or delivery Because of potential for beta-agonist interference with uterine contractility, restrict use for relief of bronchospasm during labor to those patients in whom the benefits clearly outweigh the risk Lactation There are no available data on the presence of albuterol in human milk, the effects on the breastfed child, or the effects on milk production Consider developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding along with mother?s clinical need for therapy and any potential adverse effects on breastfed child from drug or from underlying maternal condition
