What is Tiotropium Bromide?
|
|
Tiotropium,
an inhaled anticholinergic medication, is the first
inhaled treatment to provide improvements in lung
function in patients with COPD with once-daily
dosing. The drug works by targeting constriction of
the airways and helping to keep them open for 24
hours.
|
|
Tiotropium
is used to prevent wheezing, shortness of breath,
and difficulty breathing in patients with chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, a group of
diseases that affect the lungs and airways) such as
chronic bronchitis (swelling of the air passages
that lead to the lungs) and emphysema (damage to air
sacs in the lungs). Tiotropium is in a class of
medications called bronchodilators. It works by
relaxing and opening the air passages to the lungs
to make breathing easier.

Tiotropium
Bromide mode of action
|
|
Tiotropium
comes as a capsule to use with a specially designed
inhaler. You will use the inhaler to breathe in the
dry powder contained in the capsules. Tiotropium is
usually inhaled once a day in the morning or
evening. To help you remember to inhale tiotropium,
inhale it around the same time every day. Follow the
directions on your prescription label carefully, and
ask your doctor or pharmacist to explain any part
you do not understand. Use tiotropium exactly as
directed. Do not inhale more or less of it or inhale
it more often than prescribed by your doctor.
|
|
|
Tiotropium
will only work if you use the inhaler it comes with
to inhale the powder in the capsules. Never swallow
tiotropium capsules and never try to inhale them
using any other inhaler. Never use your tiotropium
inhaler to take any other medication.
