Clenbuterol bronchodilator drug molecule C013 / 8893
Clenbuterol drug molecule. This drug is a decongestant and bronchodilator used to treat breathing disorders. It acts on beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscle of the airways, relaxing them and therefore aiding breathing. The drug is banned in the UK due to side effects that include palpitations and arrhythmia (irregular heartbeat). Clenbuterol also increases fat burning and muscle mass. Due to this it is used illegally as a slimming aid and by athletes as a performance-enhancing drug. Atoms are represented as spheres and are colour-coded; carbon (grey), hydrogen (white), oxygen (red), nitrogen (blue) and chlorine (green)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the molecular structure of Clenbuterol, a powerful bronchodilator and decongestant used to treat various breathing disorders. The intricate illustration depicts the drug's chemical composition with atoms represented as color-coded spheres. Clenbuterol acts on beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the smooth muscle of the airways, effectively relaxing them and aiding in easier breathing. However, despite its therapeutic benefits, this drug is banned in the UK due to potential side effects such as palpitations and irregular heartbeat. Interestingly, Clenbuterol also possesses additional properties that have led to its misuse. It has been illegally employed as a slimming aid due to its ability to increase fat burning and promote muscle mass growth. Furthermore, athletes have utilized it as a performance-enhancing substance. The image serves as a reminder of both the medical applications and illicit uses associated with this compound. Its molecular model provides valuable insight into its pharmacological characteristics and biochemical interactions within the body. Created by RAMON ANDRADE 3DCIENCIA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY, this artwork beautifully combines science and aesthetics while shedding light on Clenbuterol's multifaceted nature.
