About Doxofylline (400mg)

DX PHYLLIN 400 is a pharmaceutical product containing Doxofylline (400mg) as its active ingredient. It is a bronchodilator used to manage and treat various respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Doxofylline is known for its efficacy in reducing bronchospasm and improving breathing in patients suffering from these conditions.

Key Benefits:

• Effective Bronchodilator: Helps in the relaxation of bronchial muscles, leading to improved airflow and easier breathing.
• Asthma Management: Reduces the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.
• COPD Treatment: Alleviates symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, enhancing the quality of life.
• Fewer Side Effects: Compared to other bronchodilators, Doxofylline is associated with fewer cardiovascular side effects.

How Does It Work?

Doxofylline, the active ingredient in DX PHYLLIN 400, works by inhibiting phosphodiesterase enzymes, which leads to an increase in cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) levels. This biochemical action results in the relaxation of the bronchial smooth muscles, reduction of inflammation, and opening of air passages. Consequently, it eases breathing and reduces the symptoms associated with asthma and COPD.

Directions for Use:

• Dosage: Take one tablet of DX PHYLLIN 400 as prescribed by your healthcare provider. The typical dosage is one tablet twice daily, but this may vary based on individual health conditions and response to treatment.
• Administration: Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew the tablet as it is designed for extended release.
• Timing: It is usually recommended to take the medication at the same time each day to maintain consistent levels in your bloodstream.
