What is Theophylline?
Active Ingredients: Theophylline
Theophylline Tablets are a drug used in the treatment of respiratory diseases, such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. When used regularly, this medication prevents wheezing, shortness of breath, and difficulty breathing. It is not effective against sudden attacks of bronchospasm.
Theophylline is in the group of medicines called xanthines. It is a bronchodilator that works by relaxing and opening the bronchial tubes in the lungs, which makes it easier to breathe.
