Pharmacology
Roflumilast and its active metabolite (roflumilast N-oxide) are selective inhibitors of phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4); inhibition of PDE4 leads to accumulation of intracellular cyclic AMP in lung tissue, which is thought to underlie its therapeutic action in COPD.
Long-acting beta2-adrenergic receptor agonist (LABA) that acts locally in the lung as a bronchodilator; stimulates adenyl cyclase to increase cyclic AMP levels, causing relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and inhibition of mast cell mediator release.
