This medicine belongs to the class of phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4) inhibitors. It works by blocking the PDE4 enzyme, which helps decrease inflammation and relax the muscles surrounding the airways. This unique action helps reduce the risk and frequency of debilitating COPD exacerbations.

Rofaday Tablet 10 contains Roflumilast (0.5 mg), which works on the body as follows:
PDE4 inhibition: Roflumilast selectively blocks an enzyme called phosphodiesterase-4 (PDE4), which normally breaks down a substance called cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in your lungs.
Increased cAMP levels: By preventing the breakdown of cAMP, roflumilast increases the concentration of this substance in lung tissues, which helps control inflammation.
Airway muscle relaxation: The increased cAMP levels help relax the muscles around your airways, making it easier to breathe.
Reduced inflammation: This medicine decreases inflammation in the lungs, which is a key factor in COPD symptoms and flare-ups.
