Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory disorder in which the airways constrict, swell, and create excess mucus, making breathing difficult. Asthma symptoms include wheezing (a whistling sound made when breathing), shortness of breath, chest tightness, and coughing, particularly at night. Mild persistent asthma symptoms may occur more than twice per week and up to four nights per month, whereas severe persistent asthma symptoms occur multiple times per day and most nights. Asthma therapy consists of medicine, breathing exercises, and self-care.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a set of lung illnesses that includes emphysema (breathing difficulty) and chronic bronchitis. (inflammation of the lining of bronchial tubes). Tobacco usage is the leading cause of COPD. Long-term exposure to gases and chemicals may also cause COPD. Symptoms include a persistent cough, shortness of breath, or wheezing. (whistle sound while breathing).

Doxoven 200mg Tablet is used in the treatment of asthma and other respiratory obstructive diseases. It is used to manage the symptoms like wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath associated with lung diseases. It is a bronchodilator, that helps relax the smooth muscles of the airways in your lungs. 

✔️ Pharmacology

Doxophylline is a relatively new bronchodilator. The presence of a dioxolane group in position 7 distinguishes it structurally from Theophylline. Doxophylline relaxes bronchial smooth muscle by selectively inhibiting phosphodiesterase 4. Doxophylline, on the other hand, appears to have lower adenosine A1 and A2 receptor affinities than Theophylline.

✔️ Dosage & Administration of Doxoven 200mg Tablet

• Elderly: Take a 200 mg tablet two or three times per day.
• Adults: Take one 400 mg tablet two or three times per day, or as directed by a physician.
• If the required daily dose of Doxophylline is 400 mg, then the Doxophylline SR tablet should be taken once daily or as directed by the doctor.
• Take it with or without food as advised by the doctor. Swallow it as a whole with a glass of water. Do not break, crush or chew it.

✔️ Interaction

Do not combine doxophylline with other xanthine derivatives. It has been demonstrated that xanthines have a toxic synergism with ephedrine. As with other xanthines, concomitant therapy with troleandomycin, lincomycin, clindamycin, allopurinol, cimetidine, ranitidine, propranolol, and the anti-flu vaccine may reduce xanthine hepatic clearance, resulting in an increase in blood levels.

✔️ Contraindications

In acute myocardial infarction, doxophylline is contraindicated. Patients with hypotension, lactating women, and patients who have shown hypersensitivity to its components are also advised against taking it

✔️ Pregnancy & Lactation

Animal reproduction studies show that doxophylline has no effect on reproduction capacity or causes fetal harm when given to pregnant animals. However, because there is limited experience with xanthines during pregnancy in humans, they should only be given to pregnant women if absolutely necessary. Doxophylline should not be taken by nursing mothers.

✔️ Precautions & Warnings

A number of known variables influence the half-life of xanthine derivatives. Patients with liver disease, congestive heart failure, and those taking certain other drugs such as erythromycin, troleandomycin, lincomycin, allopurinol, cimetidine, propranolol, and the anti-flu vaccine may experience a delay. In these cases, a lower Doxophylline dose may be required.

✔️ Storage Conditions

Store below 30°C, away from light, in a cool, dry place. Keep out of children's reach.
