- Background
Terbutaline was first synthesized in 196612 and described in the literature in the late 1960s and early 1970s.11 It is a selective beta-2 adrenergic agonist used as a bronchodilator in asthmatic patients.12,16,17

Terbutaline is a beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist indicated to treat reversibly bronchospasm in asthmatic patients with bronchitis and emphysema.16,17 It has a short duration as the inhaled form is taken up to three times daily, and the therapeutic window is wide.16,17
- Mechanism of action
Terbutaline is a selective beta-2 adrenergic receptor agonist.11 Agonism of these receptors in bronchioles activates adenylyl cyclase, increasing intracellular cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).13 Increased cAMP decreases intracellular calcium, activating protein kinase A, inactivating myosin light-chain kinase, activating myosin light-chain phosphatase, and finally relaxing smooth muscle in the bronchiole.13
Target Actions Organism ABeta-2 adrenergic receptor agonistHumans UBeta-3 adrenergic receptor agonistHumans UBeta-1 adrenergic receptor antagonistHumans - Absorption
A 0.5 mg subcutaneous dose of terbutaline reaches a mean Cmax of 9.6 ± ng/mL, with a median Tmax of 0.5 hours, and a mean AUC of 29.4 ± 14.2 h*ng/mL.16 A 5 mg oral terbutaline tablet reaches a mean Cmax of 8.3 ± 3.9 ng/mL with a median Tmax of 2 hours, and a mean AUC of 54.6 ± 26.8 h*ng/mL.17 A 5 mg oral terbutaline solution reaches a mean Cmax of 8.6 ± 3.6 ng/mL, with a median Tmax of 1.5 hours, and a mean AUC of 53.1 ± 23.5 h*ng/mL.17
Oral terbutaline has an oral bioavailability of 14-15%.8
- Volume of distribution
Terbutaline has a mean volume of distribution of 1.6 L/kg.8
- Protein binding
Terbutaline is not highly bound to protein in plasma.8
- Metabolism
Terbutaline is sulphated or glucuronidated prior to elimination.4,5,6,9

- Route of elimination
An oral dose of terbutaline is 40% eliminated in the urine after 72 hours.6 The major metabolite in the urine was the sulphate conjugated form of terbutaline.6 Parenteral doses of terbutaline are 90% eliminated in the urine, with approximately 2/3 as the unchanged parent drug.7 Less than 1% of a dose of terbutaline is eliminated in the feces.7
- Half-life
An oral dose of terbutaline has an elimination half life of 3.4 hours,17 while a subcutaneous dose has an elimination half life of 2.9 hours.16
- Clearance
The average clearance of terbutaline is 3.0 mL/min/kg.8
