Pharmacological action
Clenbuterol is a selective 2-adrenergic agonist. It has a bronchodilator and secretolytic effect.

It inhibits the release of mediators from mast cells that contribute to bronchospasm and inflammation of the bronchi. Reduces edema or congestion in the bronchi, improves mucociliary clearance.
