Why do cold medicines contain an alpha-adrenergic agonist and atropine?
Cold medicines contain alpha-adrenergic agonist to help with congestion and atropine as an anticholinergic to deter abuse. Anticholinergics give you dry mouth, urinary retention, constipation when levels are above normal as in abuse. An example would be lomotil, which has diphenoxylate and atropine.

Is Albuterol sulfate a steroid?
No, albuterol is not a steroid. It is a type of medication called a beta 2 agonist.
