What is more effective in producing Bronchdilation?
Question:
Answers:
Depends on the source of the broncospasm. Asthma has a stong inflammatory component, so steroids work well. Emphysema is mostly anatomic, so beta agonists or anticholinergics are better there. If you're in a crisis, a good beta agonist is best in the short term (albuterol, even epinephrine).

More effective than what?
How long a time period are you thinking of? There are short term dilators like ventolin and longer term ones.
Isoproteronal is the fastest acting bronchodilator, but its not safe for everyone to use.
magnesium is supposed to act as a natural bronchodilator. I have asthma and have been trying magnesium for 3 weeks. Doesn't seem to have helped. But it's worth a shot, especially since it's natural.All the asthma medicines really aren't good for you as far as long term effects.
Most effective is epinephrine (similar to adrenaline). That's what's in an EpiPen to treat someone with anaphylactic shock so they don't stop breathing.
