Exclusion Criteria
  • Any finding of the medical examination (including BP, PR, and ECG measurements) deviating from normal and of clinical relevance
  • Evidence of a clinically relevant concomitant disease
  • Gastrointestinal, hepatic, renal, respiratory, cardiovascular, metabolic, immunological or hormonal disorders
  • Diseases of the central nervous system (such as epilepsy) or psychiatric disorders or neurological disorders
  • History of relevant orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells or blackouts
  • Chronic or relevant acute infections
  • History of relevant allergy/hypersensitivity (including allergy to the drug or its excipients) as judged clinically relevant by the investigator
  • Intake of drugs with a long half-life (>24 hours) within at least 1 month or less than 10 half-lives of the respective drug prior to randomization
  • Use of drugs which might reasonably influence the results of the trial based on the knowledge at the time of protocol preparation within 10 days prior to randomisation
  • Participation in another trial with an investigational drug within 2 months prior to randomisation
  • Smoker (>10 cigarettes or >3 cigars or >3 pipes/day)
  • Inability to refrain from smoking on trial days as judged by the investigator
  • Alcohol abuse (more than 40 g alcohol a day)
  • Drug abuse
  • Blood donation (more than 100 mL blood within 4 weeks prior to randomisation or during the trial)
  • Excessive physical activities within 1 week prior to randomisation or during the trial
  • Any laboratory value outside the reference range that is of clinical relevance
  • Inability to comply with dietary regimen of the study centre

The following exclusion criteria are specific for this study due to the known class side effect profile of ß2-mimetics:

  • Asthma or history of pulmonary hyperreactivity
  • Hyperthyrosis
  • Allergic rhinitis in need of treatment
  • Clinically relevant cardiac arrhythmia
  • Paroxysmal tachycardia (>100 beats per minute)

The following exclusion criteria are specific for this study due to the known class side effect profile of Tiotropium:

  • Hypersensitivity to tiotropium and/or related drugs of these classes
  • History of narrow-angle glaucoma
  • History of prostatic hyperplasia
  • History of bladder-neck obstruction
