    SAFETY INFORMATION

    INSPIOLTO RESPIMAT

    INSPIOLTO RESPIMAT (tiotropium bromide monohydrate and olodaterol hydrochloride) is a combination of a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) and a long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonist (LABA) indicated for the long-term, once-daily maintenance bronchodilator treatment of airflow obstruction in patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

    It is not indicated for the relief of acute deterioration in COPD or asthma use.

    Click here for additional safety information and for a link to the Product Monograph discussing:

    • Contraindications in patients with hypersensitivity to tiotropium bromide monohydrate or olodaterol hydrochloride or to any of the excipients and patients with a history of hypersensitivity to atropine or its derivatives, e.g., ipratropium.
    • Most serious warnings and precautions regarding asthma-related death: Long-acting beta2-adrenergic agonists (LABA) increase the risk of asthma-related death.
    • Other relevant warnings and precautions regarding maximum daily use, asthma, treatment of acute episodes of bronchospasm, patients with acutely deteriorating COPD, use with other LABAs or LAMAs, narrow-angle glaucoma or urinary retention, avoiding getting mist into eyes, cardiovascular disorders, patients predisposed to low levels of serum potassium, patients with known history of QTc prolongation, patients with convulsive disorders or thyrotoxicosis and patients who are unusually responsive to sympathomimetic amines, patients with preexisting diabetes mellitus or ketoacidosis, dizziness or blurred vision, cardiovascular effects such as increase in pulse rate, systolic or diastolic blood pressure or cardiac arrhythmias, wheezing and breathing difficulties (bronchospasm) due to benzalkonium chloride, paradoxical bronchospasm, use in pregnant and nursing women, hepatic insufficiency and renal insufficiency.
    • Conditions of clinical use, adverse reactions, drug interactions and dosing instructions.
