Increased half-life and decreased clearance with cimetidine, allopurinol, erythromycin, ciprofloxacin, troleandomycin, lincomycin, clindamycin, ranitidine, propranolol, and flu vaccines. Decreased half-life and increased clearance with phenytoin and other anticonvulsants. Increased risk of synergistic toxicity with ephedrine and other sympathomimetics. May potentiate hypokalaemia caused by hypoxia with β2-agonists, corticosteroids, and diuretics.

Tác dụng
Description: Mechanism of Action: Doxofylline, a theophylline derivative, is a bronchodilator. It inhibits phosphodiesterase enzymes which increase cyclic adenine monophosphate (cAMP), thereby causing bronchial smooth muscle relaxation leading to bronchodilation. Pharmacokinetics: Absorption: Rapidly absorbed. Absolute bioavailability: 62.6%. Time to peak plasma concentration: 1.19 hours. Distribution: Volume of distribution: 1 L/kg. Plasma protein binding: Approx 48%. Metabolism: Extensively metabolised in the liver (approx 90%) into the inactive metabolite, hydroxyethyltheophylline. Excretion: Via urine (<4% as unchanged drug). Elimination half-life: 7-10 hours.
