| Levalbuterol (Xopenex) | Beta-2 agonist Short acting bronchodilator Four times daily, and/or as- needed MOA: effects on smooth muscle cause dilation of bronchial passages |
| Terbutaline (Bricanyl Turbuhaler) | Beta-2 agonist Short acting bronchodilator Four times daily, and/or as- needed MOA: effects on smooth muscle cause dilation of bronchial passages |
| Ipratropium (Atrovent) | Anticholinergic Short acting bronchodilator Four times daily, and/or as- needed MOA: effects on smooth muscle cause dilation of bronchial passages |
| Beta-2 agonist and anticholinergic together | Can combine beta-2 agonists (Albuterol) and ipratropium (anticholinergic) to improve efficacy and/or limit side effects |
| Formoterol (Foradil) | Long-Acting Beta-2 Agonist (LABA) Long acting bronchodilator Use twice daily For mild or moderate COPD |
| Salmeterol (Serevent) | Long-Acting Beta-2 Agonist (LABA) Long acting bronchodilator Use three times daily For mild or moderate COPD |
| Tiotropium (Spiriva) | Long-acting anticholinergic (LAAC) Long acting bronchodilator Once daily For mild or moderate COPD |
| Umeclidinium (Incruse Ellipta) | Long-acting anticholinergic (LAAC) Long acting bronchodilator Once daily For mild or moderate COPD |
| Formoterol/Budesonide (Symbicort) | Combination LABA/Corticosteroid Long-acting bronchodilator Use twice daily For very severe COPD with frequent exacerbation |
