| Stars | |
| Definition | A racemate consisting of equal amounts of arformoterol fumarate (the active enantiomer) and (S,S)-formoterol fumarate (the inactive enantiomer). It is used (particularly in its dihydrate form) as a direct-acting sympathomimetic and bronchodilator for the treatment of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (any progressive respiratory disease that makes it harder to breathe over time, such as chronic bronchitis and emphysema). |
