Abstract

Beta2-adrenergic receptor agonists is a class of medications that act on the 2-adrenergic receptors. They are mostly used to treat asthma and other respiratory problems at present. However, the newer research have highlighted that they can be utilized in numerous other disorders like Congenital Myasthenic Syndrome, Down syndrome, Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Idiopathic Stuttering Priapism & Dyslipidemia etc.
