Pharmacology
Long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA/anticholinergic); competitively and reversibly inhibits M3 receptors at airway smooth muscle to produce bronchodilation lasting longer than 24 hours after once-daily oral inhalation.
Stiolto Respimat combines tiotropium, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist that inhibits M3-receptors at airway smooth muscle to produce bronchodilation, and olodaterol, a LABA that activates beta2-adrenoceptors to stimulate cAMP synthesis and relax airway smooth muscle cells.
