Who should take this medicine?

Quibron-T (Theophylline) is usually prescribed by a specialist for adults and children whose asthma is poorly treated with other medications. Theophylline is not suitable for everyone, including people with certain medical conditions or those taking certain medications. It is very important that the person prescribing your asthma medications knows your entire medical history and understands what other medications you are taking. Some people with asthma are prescribed theophylline as an adjunct treatment, as well as their usual inhalers to relieve and prevent asthma. Theophylline relaxes the smooth muscles of the airways so that they open up and allow air to pass through more easily.

When you take Quibron-T, it is usually in a pill or capsule that lasts all day. It helps manage the day-to-day symptoms of asthma by opening up the airways and making breathing easier. It works in conjunction with your preemptive inhaler to lower your risk of an asthma attack. Theophylline is also used in hospital emergencies. It is injected directly into a vein (intravenously) to relieve asthma symptoms if an attack of shortness of breath or an asthma attack occurs. You will only be given theophylline intravenously if you are in the hospital. The doctor or nurse who will give it to you will make sure you get the correct dose and answer any questions you may have.
