Abbreviated New Drug Application
THEOPHYLLINE- THEOPHYLLINE TABLET, EXTENDED RELEASE GLENMARK PHARMACEUTICALS INC., USA ---------- THEOPHYLLINE EXTENDED-RELEASE TABLETS RX ONLY DESCRIPTION: Theophylline is structurally classified as a methylxanthine. It occurs as a white, practically odorless, crystalline powder. Theophylline Anhydrous, USP has the chemical name 1,3- dimethyl-3,7-dihydro-1_H_-purine-2,6-dione, and is represented by the following structural formula: C H N O M.W. 180.17 g/mol. This product allows a 12-hour dosing interval for a majority of patients and a 24-hour dosing interval for selected patients (see DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION section for description of appropriate patient populations). Each extended-release tablet for oral administration contains either 300 mg or 450 mg of theophylline anhydrous, USP. Tablets also contain as inactive ingredients: anhydrous lactose, hypromellose, lactose monohydrate, magnesium stearate and povidone. CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY: MECHANISM OF ACTION: Theophylline has two distinct actions in the airways of patients with reversible obstruction; smooth muscle relaxation (i.e., bronchodilation) and suppression of the response of the airways to stimuli (i.e., non-bronchodilator prophylactic effects). While the mechanisms of action of theophylline are not known with certainty, studies in animals suggest that bronchodilation is mediated by the inhibition of two isozymes of phosphodiesterase (PDE III and, to a lesser extent, PDE IV) while non-bronchodilator prophylactic actions are probably mediated through one or more different molecular mechanisms, that do not involve inhibition of PDE III or antagonism of adenosine receptors. Some of the adverse effects associated with theophylline appear to be 7 8 4 2 mediated by inhibition of PDE III (e.g., hypotension, tachycardia, headache, and emesis) and adenosine receptor antagonism (e.g., alterations in cerebral blood flow). Theophylline increases the force of contraction of diaphragmatic muscles. This action appears to be due to enhancement of calcium uptake throug সম্পূর্ণ নথি পড়ুন
