Mechanism of action

Tiotropium blocks muscarinic receptors on airway smooth muscle, reducing bronchoconstriction, while olodaterol activates beta-2 adrenergic receptors to promote bronchodilation. Together, these complementary mechanisms provide sustained airway relaxation and improved airflow for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
