Adrenaline, the 'fight or flight' drug. Perfect for when your lungs are saying, 'Flight! Definitely flight!'

Zafirlukst? What is this, a Harry Potter spell? I'll stick with the more commonly used medications, thanks.

Cortisone, really? That's for long-term control, not fast-acting relief. I hope the exam doesn't try to trick me with that one.

Yeah, cortisone is more for long-term control of asthma symptoms, not for immediate relief.

Albuterol is the classic bronchodilator, so that's my pick. Salmeterol is more for maintenance, not acute treatment.

That makes sense, Albuterol is a short-acting beta agonist that is commonly used in asthma emergencies.

I disagree, I believe Albuterol is the drug of choice because it acts quickly to open up the airways.
