![]() However, it may still have some cardiac effects because beta2 receptors in the heart comprise 10% to 50% of the total beta-adrenergic receptors. Vilanterol is a selective LABA, which means that it preferentially targets beta2 receptors in smooth muscle.Umeclidinium is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA, also known as an anticholinergic agent) and vilanterol, a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA). Contains two inhaled bronchodilator agents that work in two different ways to open the airways.Anoro Ellipta is not a steroid (corticosteroid) medication and does not contain any steroids.May be used for long-term maintenance treatment of COPD.Anoro Ellipta belongs to the class of medicines known as bronchodilator combinations.Increases in cyclic AMP are associated with relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and inhibition of release of hypersensitivity mediators from mast cells in the lungs. Increases in cyclic AMP cause relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle and inhibit the release of hypersensitivity mediators from mast cells in the lungs. Vilanterol is a long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) that works by stimulating the enzyme adenylyl cyclase which catalyzes the conversion of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to cyclic-3',5'-adenosine monophosphate (cAMP).Umeclidinium may also be known as an anticholinergic agent. ![]() Umeclidinium is a long-acting muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) that works by inhibiting M3 receptors in the smooth muscle of the bronchi to open up the airways (this is called bronchodilation). The ingredients in Anoro Ellipta help to open the airways.Anoro Ellipta is a brand (trade) name for a combination medication containing both umeclidinium and vilanterol that may be used to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Medically reviewed by Carmen Fookes, BPharm.
