Combivent Respimat
Combivent Respimat is an inhaled medication used to help people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) breathe more easily. It combines two medicines, ipratropium and albuterol, that work together to relax and open the airways in the lungs. This helps reduce symptoms like shortness of breath, wheezing, and chest tightness.
- Medication works by relaxing airway muscles and reducing bronchospasm, improving airflow
- Respimat inhaler delivers a fine mist for better lung deposition
- Patients should prime the inhaler before first use and after prolonged storage
- Inhaler should be cleaned weekly to maintain proper function

Combivent Respimat Medication Description
Combivent Respimat is a combination inhaler designed for patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), a condition that makes breathing difficult due to narrowed airways and lung damage. By combining ipratropium bromide and albuterol sulfate, the medication provides two complementary mechanisms of action: ipratropium reduces airway constriction by blocking muscarinic receptors, while albuterol relaxes airway muscles by stimulating beta-2 receptors. This dual approach helps improve airflow and reduce symptoms such as shortness of breath and wheezing. The Respimat device delivers medication as a slow-moving mist, which enhances lung deposition and reduces the need for strong inhalation effort—an advantage for patients with compromised lung function. Combivent is used as part of a long-term COPD management plan, often alongside other inhalers and lifestyle measures. It is not intended for immediate relief of acute breathing problems, so patients should keep a rescue inhaler available for sudden symptoms. Proper inhaler technique, regular cleaning, and adherence to dosing instructions are essential for optimal results and safety. -
Combivent Respimat Side Effects
Common side effects of Combivent Respimat include dry mouth, cough, mild throat irritation, and headache. Some patients may experience dizziness or nervousness. Serious but less common effects include rapid heartbeat, chest pain, severe allergic reactions, and worsening breathing problems. Warning signs such as irregular heartbeat, severe shortness of breath, or swelling of the face require immediate medical attention. Using the inhaler as directed and attending regular checkups help minimize these risks. -
