What is TUDORZA GENUAIR?
TUDORZA GENUAIR 400 MCG contains ACLIDINIUM BROMIDE : 400 MCG. It is listed in the Health Canada Drug Product Database under DIN 02409720, held by COVIS PHARMA GMBH, supplied as POWDER (METERED DOSE) for INHALATION administration. Health Canada currently lists it as marketed, status dated 12-Sep-2022. Nexara Health is a licensed Canadian wholesale distributor (DEL 3-002896-A) and can source this product for hospitals, pharmacies and clinics. Availability and lead time are confirmed per order.
What is TUDORZA GENUAIR used for?
Long-term maintenance bronchodilator treatment in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Not for acute relief.
Authorized indication as written in the Health Canada product monograph. For healthcare professionals and licensed purchasers; this is not medical advice.
How much does Aclidinium Bromide cost around the world?
Aclidinium Bromide is listed on 3 of the national price registers Nexara ingests. Each country publishes on a different basis, so figures are not comparable with one another — or with a Canadian wholesale price.
What a market publishes matters more than the number it publishes. Austria publishes a KVP (Kassenverkaufspreis); Czechia publishes a max producer price (ex-factory); Hungary publishes a producer price (ex-factory). Comparing an ex-factory ceiling against a pharmacy public price tells you nothing about either, and comparing either against a Canadian landed cost tells you less.
| Market | Price basis published there | Brands | Packs listed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Austria | KVP (Kassenverkaufspreis) | 2 | 2 |
| Czechia | max producer price (ex-factory) | 1 | 1 |
| Hungary | producer price (ex-factory) | 1 | 1 |
4 pack listings across 4 brand entries and 3 price bases, refreshed 03 Sep 2026. Ranges span every Aclidinium Bromide pack in that market, so a high figure is usually a larger pack rather than the same product.
Canada publishes no comparable public list price. For a delivered Canadian price on a licensed account, verify your licence — it takes about a minute.
How is it supplied and stored?
Pack configuration, storage class and the handling constraints that drive cold-chain planning. One DIN can cover more than one pack size, and the pack — not the DIN — is what gets priced, shipped and invoiced.
| Strength on the label | 400 MCG |
|---|---|
| Dosage form | POWDER (METERED DOSE) |
| Route | INHALATION |
| Pack configuration (monograph) | Carton containing 1 inhaler with 30 metered doses; Carton containing 1 inhaler with 60 metered doses. White inhaler with green dosage button. |
| Storage | Store between 15 to 30°C. Keep protected inside the sealed bag until use; use within 90 days of opening the bag. |
Before an order line is unambiguous Nexara needs the strength, the pack size and the presentation.

Health Canada record and identifiers
The regulatory facts straight from the Drug Product Database, plus every identifier form Nexara accepts on a purchase order. A DIN written without its leading zeros is the commonest reason an order line fails to match.

How is it administered?
One inhalation of 400 mcg twice daily (morning and evening). Administered via oral inhalation using the GENUAIR device.
Included because it drives pack selection and wastage. Consult the monograph.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to aclidinium bromide or to any other component of the product (including lactose monohydrate/milk protein).
Warnings and precautions
Not for acute use/rescue therapy. Caution in patients with narrow-angle glaucoma or urinary retention. Risk of paradoxical bronchospasm and cardiovascular effects (arrhythmias).
What can be used instead?
Alternatives on every axis a buyer actually considers — the same molecule in another presentation, the same class, an adjacent class, or a fixed-dose combination. Every row is led by the marketed DIN count, because that is what can be bought this week.
2 · Same class — other molecules in ATC R03BB
| Molecule | Canadian brands | DINs | Marketed | Sourceable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ipratropium Bromide | AA-IPRAVENT · APO-IPRAVENT STERULES · ATROVENT · ATROVENT HFA · +20 more | 30 | 8 | Yes |
| Tiotropium Bromide | APO-TIOTROPIUM · LUPIN-TIOTROPIUM · SPIRIVA · SPIRIVA RESPIMAT | 4 | 4 | Yes |
| Aclidinium Bromide | TUDORZA GENUAIR | 1 | 1 | Yes |
| Glycopyrronium Bromide | SEEBRI BREEZHALER | 1 | 1 | Yes |
| Umeclidinium Bromide | INCRUSE ELLIPTA | 1 | 1 | Yes |
A molecule with zero marketed DINs cannot be sourced domestically, however many approvals it holds — if one of these sits on a formulary or in an older protocol, that is the line to check.
3 · Adjacent classes in ATC R03B
| ATC subgroup | Molecules | DINs | Marketed |

| R03BC | Cromoglicic Acid · Nedocromil | 11 | 0 |
Not clinical advice. These tables describe what can be supplied in Canada, not what should be prescribed. Substitution within or across classes is a prescriber and pharmacist decision, and interchangeability is determined provincially.
What else is TUDORZA GENUAIR called?
The same molecule, Aclidinium Bromide, is registered under other names elsewhere. Buyers and prescribers searching from outside Canada — or working from a foreign prescription or tender document — often know it by one of these:
| Name | Script | Registered in |
|---|---|---|
| BRETARIS GENUAIR | Latin | Czechia |
Names are taken from national medicine registers and published price lists. A product registered abroad is not authorized for sale in Canada unless it holds its own DIN; import is possible only through the routes Health Canada permits.
How can I get it?
Nexara Health supplies this product to licensed Canadian buyers — pharmacies, hospitals, clinics, licensed distributors, and clinical trial sponsors or their CROs. We confirm stock, pack size, expiry and pricing at the time of quotation. If the product is on backorder or in shortage, we identify equivalent alternatives and import options where permitted.
Ordering questions
Who can buy this from Nexara?
Licensed entities only. Nexara holds Health Canada establishment licence DEL 3-002896-A and ships only to a licensed address. Patients and unlicensed buyers are routed to a partner pharmacy.
Is there a minimum order?
Yes, set per product line and per pack multiple rather than on the order total, so you are never asked to buy a part-pack. The minimum for this line is confirmed with your quote.
What is the lead time?
Confirmed per order at quotation, and it depends on current stock position and whether the product is in shortage.
Why is there no price on this page?
Nexara quotes a delivered Canadian price per order, against a verified licence. Foreign list prices are published on incompatible bases and are not a guide to what any buyer can obtain here, so this page shows which markets list the molecule and on what basis, and nothing more.
Can Nexara supply this for a clinical trial?
Yes — comparator and background-therapy supply, including sourcing from other markets where a Canadian pack will not satisfy the protocol. Clinical trial supply.
