patient education increase mucus production. The severity can range from mild to severe, which will
for asthma? also indicate the type of treatment that is necessary. Many preventative medications
aim to prevent inflammation from occurring, while emergency treatments (bron-
chodilators) work by immediately producing bronchodilation. If you have taken
your albuterol and have no relief, go to the ER immediately.
11. What is the mech- This medication prevents bronchoconstriction by binding to the leukotriene recep-
anism of action tors that are responsible for accepting leukotrienes which produce the inflamma-
for montelukast? tory reaction.
