No, albuterol is not a steroid. It is a type of medication called a beta 2 agonist. It stimulates the beta2 subtype of receptors to help relax the muscles in the lungs (and other places) to help open up the airways. Sometimes a physician will prescribe a steroid for Asthma, or a medication that has steroids in it to help control asthma or emphysema symptoms.
