Terbutaline, sold under the brand names Bricanyl among others, is a medication used for symptoms of asthma or COPD and to temporally delay delivery in preterm labor.[1] The delay in deliver is used to allow time for steroids to speed lung development in the baby or moving a women to a location with more resources.[1] It is generally take by mouth, inhaled, or injected under the skin.[1][2]
Common side effects include anxiety, shakiness, fast heart rate, and nausea.[1] Other side effects may include high blood sugar, low potassium, heart arrhythmia, and insufficient blood flow to the heart.[1] It should not be used to prevent preterm labor or delay labor more than 48–72 hours.[3] It is a β2 adrenergic receptor agonist.[1]
Terbutaline was patented in 1966 and came into medical use in 1970.[4] It is available as a generic medication.[2] In the United Kingdom 100 tablets of 5 mg costs the NHS about 15 pounds.[2] This amount in the United States costs about 135 USD as of 2021.[5]
