1 Our study was aimed at investigating the duration of the bronchodilator action of the antimuscarinc drug glycopyrrolate compared to tiotropium and ipratropium. 2 In the guinea-pig isolated trachea, the time (t(1/2)) necessary for a contractile response to carbachol (0.3 mu M) to return to 50% recovery after washout of the antagonist was studied. The offset of the antagonist effect of glycopyrrolate, tiotropium and ipratropium (10 nM each) was t(1/2) = 4.0 +/- 0.5, > 4.5 and 0.5 +/- 0,1 h, respectively. At 4.5 h from the washout of the antagonist, the recovery of the response to carbachol was 50 +/- 8, 10 +/- 4 and 70 +/- 7%, respectively. 3 In the human isolated bronchus, the offset of the bronchodilator effects of glycopyrrolate (3 rim), tiotropium (1 nM) and ipratropium (10 nM) was t(1/2) = 3.7 +/- 0.2; > 6 and 3.0 +/- 0.2 h, respectively. At 6.0 h from the washout of the antagonist, the recovery of the response to carbachol (1 mu M) was 101 +/- 10, 27 +/- 3 and 110 +/- 10%, respectively. 4 In anaesthetized guinea-pigs, acetylcholine-induced bronchoconstriction was markedly reduced by intratracheal instillation of glycopyrrolate (3 nmol kg(-1); 88.1 +/- 4% inhibition), tiotropium (1.3 nmol kg(-1); 86.2 +/- 5% inhibition) or ipratropium (1.45 nmol kg(-1); 88.1 +/- 10% inhibition). These inhibitory effects assessed 3 or 24 h after antagonist administration were reduced to 69.9 +/- 5 and 29.7 +/- 6%; 28.3 +/- 5 and 14.2 +/- 5% for glycopyrrolate and ipratropium, respectively, whereas they remained stable (83.5 +/- 4; 70.6 +/- 6) for tiotropium. The residual inhibitory effect of glycopyrrolate was also assessed at 16 h from administration, and proved to be as low as that found at 24 h (31.2 +/- 10 vs 29.7 +/- 6%, respectively). 5 In conclusion, glycopyrrolate-induced bronchodilation has a longer duration than that of ipratropium, but less than that of tiotropium. The efficacy of a possible glycopyrrolate-based therapy for asthma or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease given once-a-day is not guaranteed by the present investigation.
