"I use the terbutaline inhaler under the brand of Bricanyl Turbuhaler for asthma attacks and tight chests. I get slightly more side effects from terbutaline compared to salbutamol (albuterol), but it is also more effective. Because I only use terbutaline for acute attacks/short-term relief, I don't mind the side effects - but if I was on it permanently as a maintenance drug, I might have a different opinion. I would recommend terbutaline because it is effective but only use it for acute attacks."
