Drug Interactions
Xanthines that aren't xanthines. Antiarrhythmics, cimetidine, disulfiram, fluvoxamine, interferon, macrolide antibiotics, quinolones, oral contraceptives, thiabendazole, and viloxazine all reduce clearance. Phenytoin, anticonvulsants, ritonavir, rifampicin, sulfinpyrazone, and cigarette smoking all accelerate clearance. 2-agonists, corticosteroids, and diuretics.
Possibly lethal: With sympathomimetics and halothane, the risk of cardiac arrhythmias is increased. Pancuronium causes tachycardia. Metabolism is slowed by?-blockers. Quinolones and ketamine both increase the likelihood of convulsions.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity.
Mode of actions
Theophylline and ethylenediamine are combined to form aminophylline. Theophylline's solubility in water is increased by ethylenediamine, which is inactive. Bronchial smooth muscle is relaxed by theophylline. Increased intracellular cAMP due to phosphodiesterase inhibition, adenosine receptor antagonism, prostaglandin antagonism, and effects on intracellular calcium are all suggested explanations.
