A doctor prescribed Deriphyllin Retard 150 mg twice daily. Should I continue this medication or stop it?
Deriphyllin Retard 150 mg is usually prescribed to help open the airways in conditions like asthma or bronchospasm, so whether you should continue or stop it depends on your diagnosis and current symptoms. You should not stop it abruptly without consulting your doctor, but if you are not feeling any improvement, having side effects (such as palpitations, restlessness, or nausea), or if it was started without clear benefit, it is best to follow up with your doctor for reassessment and possible change in treatment, as sometimes inhalers or other medicines may be more effective and safer depending on the cause of your symptoms.
