Classification and Mechanism of Action
Generic Severent diskus contains salmeterol as the main drug. It is a bronchodilator belonging to the group of beta2-adrenergic agonists. It stimulates an enzyme called intracellular adenyl cyclase which increases the conversion of cyclic AMP. Increased cAMP inhibits the mast cell mediators thus reducing inflammation. It relaxes the smooth muscles in the bronchial wall thus causing dilation of the air passages.
