How It Works
TRIMIUM TRANSHALER helps in the management of symptoms of COPD where Ciclesonide is a glucocorticoid which possesses anti-inflammatory action. It inhibits the potent factors that cause inflammation such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Formoterol is an Adrenergic beta-2 Receptor Agonist, which acts on the receptors present in the airways called beta-receptors and causes the relaxation of muscles in the airways resulting in easy breathing. It also suppresses the release of agents that cause hypersensitivity (histamine and leukotrienes). Tiotropium is an Anticholinergic drug which causes relaxation of the muscles in the airways and bronchodilation. Together, they help in easy breathing and decrease inflammation.
