Active ingredients

The drug ANORO ELLIPTA contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):

1
UNII 7AN603V4JV - UMECLIDINIUM BROMIDE
 

Umeclidinium is a long acting muscarinic receptor antagonist (also referred to as an anticholinergic). It is a quinuclidine derivative that is a muscarinic receptor antagonist with activity across multiple muscarinic cholinergic receptor subtypes. Umeclidinium bromide exerts its bronchodilatory activity by competitively inhibiting the binding of acetylcholine with muscarinic cholinergic receptors on airway smooth muscle.

UNII 40AHO2C6DG - VILANTEROL TRIFENATATE
 

Vilanterol is a selective long-acting, beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA). The pharmacologic effects of beta2-adrenoceptor agonist active substances, including vilanterol, are at least in part attributable to stimulation of intracellular adenylate cyclase, the enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic-3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP). Increased cyclic AMP levels cause relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and inhibition of release of mediators of immediate hypersensitivity from cells, especially from mast cells.
