Incruse Ellipta (Umeclidinium) Medication Information
Uses
Incruse Ellipta is a prescription inhaler that contains the active ingredient umeclidinium. Your healthcare provider may prescribe it to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
COPD is a disease of the lungs and airways. It is a chronic condition where the airways gradually harden over time, and it becomes harder to breathe. Symptoms include shortness of breath, coughing, wheezing, and mucus production.
The medication in Incruse Ellipta is an inhaled anticholinergic. It binds to muscarinic receptors on the smooth muscle in the airways, causing those muscles to relax. If Incruse Ellipta is used every day, it decreases the severity of COPD symptoms.
Dosage
Incruse Ellipta contains 62.5 mcg of umeclidinium.
Inhale the contents of one foil blister strip once daily.
Side Effects
Side effects are relatively uncommon when taking Incruse Ellipta. About 2 in 100 people may experience one of the following side effects:
- Bruising areas of the skin
- Cough
- Fast heartbeat
- Joint pain
- Muscle pain
- Sore throat
- Stomach pain
- Stuffy/runny nose
- Tooth pain
- Upper respiratory infection
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you have a side effect that worsens your COPD or makes it hard to take your medication.
Precautions
Do not use Incruse Ellipta if you have a milk allergy because the inhalation powder contains whey proteins.
Incruse Ellipta cannot treat bronchospasm. It should not be used in people whose COPD is acutely deteriorating.
Use caution if you have a history of narrow-angle glaucoma because Incruse Ellipta can worsen the condition in certain people.
People with a history of urinary retention may see their symptoms worsen while taking this medication, but this is rare because not a lot of the drug absorbs into the bloodstream. Use caution if you have a history of prostatic hyperplasia or bladder neck obstruction.
If it becomes harder to breathe while using this inhaler, stop taking it and call your doctor.
