Deriphyllin Tablet 30

Deriphyllin Tablet is used to manage chronic respiratory conditions like asthma and COPD. It relaxes airway muscles, reducing wheezing, chest tightness, and breathlessness, improving airflow and supporting better breathing with regular use.

• The tablet should be taken orally with a glass of water on an empty stomach. 
• It should be swallowed whole, not crushed, broken, or chewed.

Deriphyllin Tablet 30 composition contains Etofylline / Etophylline (77 Mg) + Theophylline (23 Mg) as its active ingredients.

• Deriphyllin tablet contains a combination of two active ingredients: Etophylline and Theophylline. Both of these drugs are bronchodilators that work by relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways, making breathing easier.
• Theophylline works by inhibiting the enzyme phosphodiesterase, which increases cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP). These molecules are responsible for relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways, leading to bronchodilation. Additionally, theophylline stimulates the release of epinephrine and norepinephrine, which are natural bronchodilators.
• Etophylline, on the other hand, is a prodrug that is converted into theophylline in the body. Once converted, it has the same bronchodilator effects as theophylline. Etophylline is converted to theophylline by the liver enzymes cytochrome P450 1A2 and 3A4.
• Together, Etophylline and Theophylline work synergistically to relax the smooth muscles of the airways, improving airflow and making it easier to breathe. This makes the Deriphyllin tablets an effective treatment for asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and other respiratory conditions characterised by bronchoconstriction.

• The Deriphyllin tablet must be stored in a dry and cool place below 30°C and out of reach of children and pets. 
• The original packaging should be kept intact until it is time to use it. 
• Before using the tablet, ensure that it has not expired and adequately dispose of it if it is no longer required or has passed its expiration date. 
• Maintaining a medication record, including the purchase date, expiration date, and the prescribing physician's name and contact details, is recommended. 
• If you require more information on the storage of the Deriphyllin tablet, it is advisable to seek advice from a healthcare professional.

• Consume foods that are rich in potassium, such as bananas, asparagus, tomatoes, oranges, avocados, beetroots, and dark leafy greens, to maintain lung function. A potassium deficiency may lead to breathing problems.
• Drink fluids daily to help thin mucus, making coughing easier.
• Avoid certain foods like beans, cabbage, garlic, onions, shrimp, dried fruits, pickled food, fried foods, carbonated drinks, wine, and bottled lemon and lime juice, as these may worsen asthma symptoms.
• Engage in regular exercise to strengthen breathing muscles and boost the immune system. Learn breathing exercises to help move more air in and out of your lungs.
• Practice meditation, deep breathing, regular exercise, and progressive muscle relaxation techniques to relieve stress and minimise the risk of an asthma attack.
• Quit smoking as it may reduce the effectiveness of the Deriphyllin Tablet, irritate the lungs, or worsen breathing problems.

• Deriphyllin Tablet is indicated for treating and preventing asthma and COPD.
• Take the tablet at the same time every day, preferably after food in the evening.
• Do not use it for sudden breathing problems. Always carry a fast-acting inhaler for emergencies.
• Your doctor may require regular blood tests to monitor potassium levels and the drug levels in your body.
• Inform your doctor if you have a history of liver, kidney, or heart disease or are a smoker. Your dosage may need to be adjusted accordingly.
• Do not stop taking the medication without consulting your doctor, even if you feel better.
