Tiotropium Bromide (18mcg) and Formoterol DH (12mcg) powder for inhalation, marketed under the name R/C TIOTROPIN F, is a combination medication used to manage and treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This dual-action inhaler offers significant benefits in reducing symptoms, improving lung function, and enhancing the overall quality of life for individuals with respiratory conditions.

How Does It Work?

Tiotropium Bromide and Formoterol DH work synergistically to provide comprehensive relief from COPD symptoms.

• Tiotropium Bromide: A long-acting anticholinergic bronchodilator, Tiotropium Bromide works by blocking muscarinic receptors in the airways. This action prevents the tightening of the muscles around the airways, leading to bronchodilation and improved airflow.

• Formoterol DH: A long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA), Formoterol DH stimulates beta2-adrenergic receptors in the lungs, causing the muscles around the airways to relax. This relaxation results in bronchodilation and easier breathing.
