Description
Overview of the medicine
Pulmobi 801 mg tablet is a novel medication primarily indicated for the management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and severe asthma. It combines potent bronchodilatory effects with significant anti-inflammatory actions to improve lung function and reduce exacerbations.

Mechanism of Action
Pulmobi 801 mg works by selectively activating beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the bronchial smooth muscle, leading to bronchodilation. Additionally, it inhibits the release of pro-inflammatory mediators and downregulates inflammatory pathways, thereby reducing airway inflammation and hyperresponsiveness.

Mainly excreted renally (60%) with some fecal excretion (40%).
Half life
Approximately 12-18 hours.

Rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, with peak plasma concentrations reached within 1-2 hours.
Metabolism
Primarily metabolized in the liver via CYP3A4 and glucuronidation pathways.
