General Comment
2011-02-01 A β2-adrenergic agonist, clenbuterol hydrochloride is used as a bronchodilator in the treatment of asthma. It is also a non-steroidal anabolic and metabolism accelerator, through a mechanism not well understood, and has been used illicitly in animal feeds to promote weight gain and to increase the muscle-to-fat body ratio of livestock.
