Combination drug
Pharmaceutical compound
Ipratropium bromide/salbutamol , sold under the brand name Combivent among others, is a combination medication used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).[ 1] [ 4] [ 5] It contains ipratropium (an anticholinergic ) and salbutamol (albuterol, a β2 -adrenergic agonist ).[ 1]
Common side effects include sore throat, muscle cramps, and nausea.[ 1] Other side effects may include bronchospasm , allergic reactions , and upper respiratory tract infections .[ 1] Safety in pregnancy is unclear.[ 6] [ 1]
The combination was approved for medical use in the United States in 1996.[ 7] It is available as a generic medication .[ 4] In 2022, it was the 178th most commonly prescribed medication in the United States, with more than 2 million prescriptions.[ 8] [ 9]
Medical uses
Ipratropium bromide/salbutamol can be used for the treatment of COPD[ 5] and asthma.[ 10]
