According to the guideline produced by the British Thoracic Society (BTS) and the Scottish Intercollegiate Guidelines Network (SIGN), SABAs are considered to be the first line of treatment in asthma management. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) guidelines also recommend the use of SABA as the first line of treatment for managing patients with COPD. The recommendations in NICE guidelines state that in COPD patients, breathlessness and exercise limitation should be first medicated with short-acting bronchodilators (including beta2-agonists or anticholinergics) when it is required. Both salbutamol and terbutaline have been widely used for asthma and COPD, and they have been found to be extremely beneficial in the two pathologic conditions.
