Author: H KAnswer:
Powerful bronchodilation by acting directly on bronchial smooth muscle (β2 action). relieves bronchoconstriction. inhibits the release of allergy mediators such as histamine from mast cells. Hyperglycemia: Significant hyperglycemic effect because of increased glycogenolysis in the liver (β2 effect), increased release of glucagon (β2 effect), decreased release of insulin (α2 effect). Lipolysis: initiates lipolysis through its agonist activity on the β1(β3) receptors of adipose tissue hydrolysis triacylglycerols to free fatty acids and glycerol
