The tyrosine lid creates an environment where the drug can interact with the hydrophobic encapsulated dry powder dosage form. Delivery of the drug to the cholinergic agent used for maintenance of chronic obstructive regions inside the receptor. lungs requires a specific breathing pattern; complete exhalation of pulmonary disease (COPD). Tiotropium bromide acts by breath, sealing lips around the HandiHaler® mouthpiece, and one competitively and reversibly inhibiting muscarinic receptors M1, The M3 receptor (Fig. 2) has a leucine in the ECL2 portion of the binding site, unlike M2 which has a slow and deep breath that is strong enough to vibrate the powder M2, and M3. This mechanism of action causes bronchodilation phenylalanine in the ECL2 portion.
