The drug INSPIOLTO RESPIMAT contains a combination of these active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs):
|
1
Tiotropium
UNII L64SXO195N - TIOTROPIUM BROMIDE MONOHYDRATE
|
|
Tiotropium is a long-acting, specific, muscarinic receptor antagonist, in clinical medicine often called an anticholinergic. By binding to the muscarinic receptors in the bronchial smooth musculature, tiotropium inhibits the cholinergic (bronchoconstrictive) effects of acetylcholine, released from parasympathetic nerve endings. |
|
2
Olodaterol
UNII 65R445W3V9 - OLODATEROL HYDROCHLORIDE
|
|
Olodaterol has a high affinity and high selectivity to the human beta2-adrenoceptor. The compound exerts its pharmacological effects by binding and activation of beta2-adrenoceptors after topical administration by inhalation. Activation of these receptors in the airways results in a stimulation of intracellular adenyl cyclase, an enzyme that mediates the synthesis of cyclic-3',5' adenosine monophosphate (cAMP). Elevated levels of cAMP induce bronchodilation by relaxation of airway smooth muscle cells. |
