Tudorza is indicated for the long-term maintenance treatment of bronchospasm associated with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. It is not intended for acute bronchospasm relief.
Tudorza contains aclidinium, a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA). It works by blocking acetylcholine receptors in the bronchial smooth muscle, causing the airways to relax and dilate, which improves airflow in and out of the lungs.
Tudorza is for oral inhalation only. Common side effects may include headache, cough, and dry mouth. Patients should inform their healthcare provider of their full medical history, especially regarding glaucoma, prostate problems, or urinary retention. Tudorza should not be used as a rescue medication for sudden breathing difficulties.
