What primary effect do corticosteroids have on beta agonists?

  1. Decrease their effectiveness

  2. Enhance their activity

  3. Change their chemical structure

  4. Nullify their effects

The correct answer is: Enhance their activity

This is because corticosteroids work in tandem with beta agonists to relax the airways and relieve asthma symptoms. They do this by reducing inflammation and swelling within the airways, allowing the beta agonists to work more effectively. Options A, C, and D are incorrect as corticosteroids do not decrease effectiveness, change chemical structure, or nullify the effects of beta agonists.
