RX ONLY
DESCRIPTION:
Theophylline is structurally classified as a methylxanthine. It occurs
as a white, odorless,
crystalline powder with a bitter taste. Anhydrous theophylline has the
chemical name
1_H-_Purine -2, 6-dione, 3,7-dihydro-1, 3-dimethyl-, and is
represented by the following
structural formula:
C H N O M.W. 180.17.
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 anhydrous theophylline. Tablets also contain as inactive
ingredients: 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
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 through an
adenosine-mediated
chan
