pubmed:abstractText |
Inhaled bronchodilators are first line drugs in the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Tiotropium bromide is a recently introduced long-acting anticholinergic agent able to reduce dyspnoea and COPD exacerbations and to improve pulmonary function and quality of life. We designed a study to compare the short-term efficacy of tiotropium bromide with that of oxitropium bromide in improving pulmonary function in patients with COPD.
