Albuterol sulfate: Symptomatic management of reversible bronchospasm associated with COPD when given on an as-needed or regular (e.g., 4 times daily) basis, either alone or concomitantly with other inhaled bronchodilators. Regular use of a selective, short-acting inhaled β2-adrenergic agonist (e.g., albuterol) in the management of COPD, in contrast to that in asthma, does not appear to be detrimental.
