Biochem/physiol Actions
Tiotropium bromide exhibits more beneficial effects on pulmonary function than other anticholinergic and β-2 adrenergic agents. Tiotropium can prevent the proliferation of fibroblasts and myofibroblasts induced by acetylcholine. It can block human monocyte chemotaxis.
Tiotropium Bromide is an anticholinergic bronchodilator. It is considered a long-acting muscarinic receptor antagonist (LAMA) and is used clinically as an inhaled bronchodilator for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma.
