✅ Description:

Contine 200 is used for the management and prevention of symptoms associated with asthma and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). It works by relaxing the airway muscles, helping to widen the air passages and improve breathing.

Contine 200 should be taken as prescribed by the physician, preferably at the same time each day, often in the evening after food. Swallow the tablet whole without crushing or chewing.

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered. However, if it is close to the next scheduled dose, skip the missed one—do not double the dose.S

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Theophylline, the active component, inhibits phosphodiesterase enzymes, leading to increased cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels. This results in bronchodilation along with mild stimulation of the central nervous system and heart.

For acute asthma, a loading dose of 5 mg/kg may be given in patients not already receiving theophylline. Maintenance dosing is individualized, usually starting at 300–400 mg per day, which may be increased to 400–600 mg daily if tolerated. The maximum recommended dose is 600 mg per day.

Yes, elderly patients generally require lower doses due to slower drug metabolism and increased sensitivity.

Dose reduction is necessary in patients with hepatic impairment, as the drug is metabolized in the liver.
