Maintenance treatment of COPD in adults, including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Not indicated for acute bronchospasm or asthma.

As a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA), Yupelri blocks muscarinic receptors in bronchial smooth muscle, preventing acetylcholine from causing bronchoconstriction and allowing airways to remain open for extended periods.

May cause paradoxical bronchospasm, urinary retention, or worsening of narrow-angle glaucoma. Tell your doctor about all medical conditions and medications before use. Avoid getting the solution in eyes. Common side effects include headache, back pain, and upper respiratory tract infection.
