Салметерол ксинафоат

Описание

Salmeterol hydroxynaphthoate is a new long-acting β2-selective adrenoceptor agonist introduced as a bronchodilator for the treatment of reversible airway obstruction in asthma and chronic bronchitis. It has bronchodilatory activity as intense and four times longerlasting than equivalent doses of salbutamol. Salmeterol hydroxynaphthoate is reported to be the first bronchodilator with significant anti-inflammatory activity and hence could complement prophylactic corticosteroid therapy.

прикладной

Salmeterol xinafoate is a potent and selective β2-adrenoceptor agonist (EC50 = 5.3 nM) that displays bronchodilator actions. Unlike other β2- adrenoceptor agonists, Salmeterol binds to exo-site domain of β2-AR receptors, producing a slow onset of action and prolonged activation. Clinically used for the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD).
