Bioactivity | Flutropium bromide (Ba 598Br) is a organic bromide salt of flutropium. Flutropium bromide shows an anticholinergic effect. Flutropium bromide effectively suppresses spasms and it can be used for the research of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease[1][2][3]. |
Invitro | Flutropium bromide is more effective than atropine in vitro experiments[3]. |
In Vivo | Flutropium bromide (0.0003%; single inhalation) inhibits the acetylcholine induced bronchoconstriction without changing the fall in blood pressure in guinea pigs[1].Flutropium bromide (3 and 10 mg/kg; i.v.) shows a weak mast cell stabilizing action, but no antagonistic action against LTD4 and serotonin[2].
