NCLEX-RN Complete Prep Course — Lesson 66: Respiratory Medications: Bronchodilators, Inhaled Steroids, Leukotriene Modifiers, Theophylline, and Oxygen as a Drug

Sarah Mitchell sorts every respiratory drug into rescue or controller: albuterol for attacks, inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting beta agonists for daily control and never a LABA alone in asthma, and ipratropium and tiotropium with their glaucoma and prostate cautions. She teaches inhaler order and spacer technique, peak flow zones, montelukast mood warnings, theophylline's 10 to 20 range, steroid bursts and magnesium for severe attacks, oxygen devices, and the COPD target saturation of 88 to 92 percent.
