Rescue Inhalers

Rescue inhalers help to STOP your child's sudden symptoms once they start — but they do NOT treat the underlying inflammation.

Rescue inhalers (also known as fast-acting inhalers) provide quick relief when your child is experiencing symptoms like coughing, wheezing or difficulty breathing.

These inhalers work by relaxing tightened muscles around your child's airways when they are having an attack. But they treat the sudden symptoms — not the underlying inflammation that can lead to attacks.
