Levolin Inhaler (Levosalbutamol) (also spelled levalbuterol) is classified as a bronchodilator and it works by acting on the smooth muscles of the airways so as to allow the air passages to open up. This helps to make it easier for the lungs to take in air, allowing for better breathing. As a result of this, it can help to prevent and control symptoms of asthma (such as asthma attacks and bronchospasms), reversible obstructive airway disease or other related conditions. Some patients have also been treated with it for the prevention of exercise induced bronchospasms.
