Abstract

The article provides an overview of the studies on the role of tiotropium bromide in the treatment of bronchial asthma (BA); the prerequisites for the application of long-acting anticholinergics in bronchial asthma are disclosed, and pharmacological properties of tiotropium bromide are discussed. Currently, it is proved that the addition of tiotropium to standard therapy of patients with severe uncontrolled BA results in improved lung function and reduced risk of relapses. Ongoing studies of the drug can extend the range of its indications in bronchial asthma.
