Salmeterol is a prescription drug used for treating airway spasms associated with asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). By relaxing muscles around the airways to allow more air into and out of the lungs, the medication can help prevent asthma attacks. Salmeterol comes in the form of an inhalation powder and is generally used twice a day. It also can be used 30 minutes before exercise to help prevent exercise-induced asthma attacks.
