List of Common COPD Medications 1. Bronchodilators Patients who have COPD are often prescribed medications called bronchodilators. Bronchodilators work by relaxing and expanding the smooth muscle of the airways, making it easier to breath. 2. Glucocorticoids If you have COPD, your doctor may have prescribed glucocorticoids, or steroids, as part of your COPD treatment plan. While glucocorticoids have many benefits, they also have serious risks and side effects. 3. Phosphodiesterase-4 Inhibitors It is becoming increasingly evident that inflammation plays a major role in COPD and many other chronic illnesses. Phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors block the action of PDE4, an enzyme that is overproduced in COPD and asthma causing inflammation in the lungs. 4. Antibiotics People with COPD are more prone to bacterial lung infections than most. And, if you have a bacterial lung infection, then chances are your doctor will have prescribed you an antibiotic.
