Information about Daliresp (Roflumilast):

Daliresp is a prescription medication used primarily to treat chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is an oral phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitor that helps reduce inflammation and improve breathing in individuals with COPD.

Roflumilast inhibits the enzyme phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4), leading to increased levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) in cells. This results in reduced inflammation and decreased immune response in the airways, which helps in improving lung function and reducing the frequency of exacerbations.
