Mechanism of action
Tiotropium binds to muscarinic receptors on airway smooth muscle, inhibiting bronchoconstriction and maintaining bronchodilation over an extended period.
Tiotropium Inhaler contains tiotropium, a long-acting antimuscarinic. It is supplied as a 9mcg inhaler and is used in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and asthma. Boehringer Ingelheim is the originator; other names are Spiriva and Tiova.
Tiotropium binds to muscarinic receptors on airway smooth muscle, inhibiting bronchoconstriction; its effect starts in about 30 minutes and lasts around 24 hours. It is maintenance treatment, not a rescue medication, so do not use it for sudden breathlessness. Paradoxical bronchospasm and glaucoma require immediate medical attention; if paradoxical bronchospasm occurs, stop the inhaler and consider other treatments. Avoid getting the powder in your eyes. Do not use it if you are hypersensitive to tiotropium, atropine or its derivatives. Tell your doctor about prostatic hyperplasia, other anticholinergics, or moderate to severe renal impairment. Use with caution in pregnancy and breastfeeding.
