Pharmacology
BEVESPI AEROSPHERE combines glycopyrrolate, a long-acting anticholinergic (LAMA) that inhibits M3 muscarinic receptors in airway smooth muscle to produce bronchodilation, with formoterol fumarate, a long-acting selective beta2-adrenoceptor agonist (LABA) that stimulates adenyl cyclase to increase cyclic AMP, relaxing bronchial smooth muscle and inhibiting mediator release from mast cells.
Ensifentrine is a dual inhibitor of PDE3 and PDE4 enzymes; inhibition results in accumulation of intracellular cAMP and/or cGMP, producing downstream bronchodilatory and anti-inflammatory signaling effects.
