Dilor-200 Uses, Dosage, Side Effects, Food Interaction and all others data.

Dilor-200 is a theophylline derivative with broncho- and vasodilator properties. It is typically used in the management of asthma, cardiac dyspnea, and bronchitis.

Dilor-200, a xanthine derivative, is a bronchodilator used for relief of acute bronchial asthma and for reversible bronchospasm associated with chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Dilor-200 is a xanthine derivative with pharmacologic actions similar to theophylline and other members of this class of drugs. Its primary action is that of bronchodilation, but it also exhibits peripheral vasodilatory and other smooth muscle relaxant activity to a lesser degree.

Uses

Dilor-200 is a theophylline derivative used to treat asthma, bronchospasm, and COPD.

For relief of acute bronchial asthma and for reversible bronchospasm associated with chronic bronchitis and emphysema.

Dilor-200 is also used to associated treatment for these conditions: Bronchial Asthma, Bronchospasm, Cheyne-Stokes Respiration

How Dilor-200 works

The bronchodilatory action of dyphylline, as with other xanthines, is thought to be mediated through competitive inhibition of phosphodiesterase with a resulting increase in cyclic AMP producing relaxation of bronchial smooth muscle as well as antagonism of adenosine receptors.

Toxicity

LD50=1954 mg/kg (orally in mice)

Dilor-200 Hypertension interaction

[Moderate] Like other methylxanthines, dyphylline at high dosages may be associated with positive inotropic and chronotropic effects on the heart.

Therapy with dyphylline and products containing dyphylline should be administered cautiously in patients with severe cardiac disease, hypertension, hyperthyroidism, or recent myocardial infarction.

The relationship between plasma dyphylline levels and therapeutic as well as toxic effects has not been determined.

Half Life

2 hours (range 1.8 - 2.1 hours)

Elimination Route

Dilor-200 exerts its bronchodilatory effects directly and, unlike the­ophylline, is excreted unchanged by the kidneys without being metabolized by the liver. Approximately 88% of a single oral dose can be recovered from the urine unchanged.
