Bevespi Aerosphere is an inhalation aerosol containing a combination of formoterol and glycopyrrolate. Formoterol is a bronchodilator. Glycopyrrolate is an anticholinergic. These medications work by relaxing muscles in the airways to improve breathing.

Bevespi Aerosphere is used to prevent airflow obstruction or bronchospasm and reduce flare-ups in adults with COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease), including bronchitis and emphysema.

Bevespi Aerosphere is not for use in treating asthma.

Formoterol may increase the risk of death in people with asthma, but the risk in people with COPD is not known. Talk with your doctor about your individual risk.

Warnings

Bevespi Aerosphere is for use only in people with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and should not be used to treat asthma.

Bevespi Aerosphere is not a rescue medicine. It will not work fast enough to treat a bronchospasm attack.

Seek medical attention if your breathing problems get worse quickly, or if you think your medications are not working as well.
