When patients say they have a sulfa allergy typically they are allergic to a group of drugs called sulfonamides. Drugs belonging to the sulfonamide class are chemically unrelated to sulfates. You can safely take Albuterol Sulfate.
Albuterol Sulfate belongs to a class of drugs called bronchodilators. Bronchodilators make breathing easier by relaxing the muscles in the lungs and widening the airways. They are often used to treat long-term conditions where the airways become intermittently narrow and inflamed, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
