Terbutaline is a bronchodilator medication used in the treatment of asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory conditions characterized by bronchoconstriction. It belongs to the class of drugs known as beta-agonists, which work by stimulating beta-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, leading to relaxation of smooth muscle in the airways and improved airflow. Terbutaline is available in various formulations, including oral tablets, inhalers, and injectable solutions, allowing for flexible dosing based on individual patient needs.

One of the primary benefits of terbutaline is its rapid onset of action and short duration of effect, providing quick relief from acute bronchoconstriction and asthma symptoms. It helps alleviate symptoms such as wheezing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness, allowing individuals to breathe more easily and engage in daily activities without limitations. Terbutaline is also commonly used as a tocolytic agent to delay preterm labor by relaxing the uterine muscles, thereby reducing the risk of premature birth.
