What is AirSupra
AirSupra (albuterol/budesonide) is prescribed for the treatment and prevention of asthma attacks in adults. It is a rescue inhaler that combines two drugs that work in different ways. While most asthma medications only treat symptoms, AirSupra also addresses the underlying inflammation.
AirSupra is used on an as-needed basis, with a specific initial dose in response to the onset of asthma symptoms, and up to six doses of two inhalations each over.
What does Simplefill Provide?
Every year in the United States, about 3,500 people die from asthma-related causes. There are more than 94,500 hospital inpatient stays each year and nearly 1 million emergency department visits each year due to asthma. It’s clear that effective asthma management is crucial to a long, healthy life. But high U.S. prescription costs can make it difficult to maintain an uninterrupted supply of essential medication such as AirSupra.
At Simplefill, we don’t believe that anyone who is uninsured, underinsured, or financially overburdened should have to do without critical medications. We know that prescription assistance is available, but many who are most in need of it don’t realize that there is help out there. We have made it our mission to spread the word about prescription assistance and connect people who need it with organizations and programs offering it.
How Does AirSupra Work?
The albuterol contained in Air Supra is a short-acting beta-agonist, or SABA, which relaxes the muscles around the user’s airways and opens them up, making it easier to breathe during an asthma attack. Budesonide is an inhaled corticosteroid, which helps reduce inflammation, swelling and irritation of the airways of the lungs. Decreasing inflammation is key to preventing asthma attacks before they even start.
