About Deriphyllin-S Tablet

Deriphyllin-S Tablet belongs to a group of medications called ‘bronchodilators,’ which are used to treat and prevent the symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty in breathing. COPD is a group of progressive lung diseases, including chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of breathing tubes in the lungs) and emphysema (shortness of breath).

Deriphyllin-S Tablet contains three bronchodilator drugs: Etofylline, Salbutamol, and Theophylline. Etofylline is a medicine derived from Theophylline. Salbutamol, also known as Albuterol, is a rapid-acting bronchodilator. These drugs work by relaxing muscles and widening the blocked airways of the lungs, making breathing easier. Together, they help relieve symptoms of asthma and COPD, such as wheezing (whistling sound while breathing), chest tightness, coughing, and shortness of breath.
