Diprophylline Tablets

Function and Efficacy

This product has a slightly weaker antiasthmatic effect than theophylline, and its cardiac stimulant effect is only 1/20 to 1/10 of that of aminophylline. It has less effect on the heart and nervous system, and is especially suitable for asthma patients with tachycardia. This product has a direct relaxant effect on respiratory smooth muscle, and its mechanism of action is the same as that of theophylline. In the past, it was believed that it was caused by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, thereby increasing the intracellular cAMP content. In recent years, experiments have shown that the bronchodilator effect of theophylline is partly due to the release of endogenous adrenaline and noradrenaline. In addition, theophylline is a purine receptor blocker that can counteract the contractile effect of adenine and other substances on the respiratory tract. Theophylline can enhance the contractility of the diaphragm, especially when the diaphragm contraction is weak, so it helps to improve respiratory function.
