About Deriphyllin Syrup
Deriphyllin Syrup belongs to the class of drugs called bronchodilators, used to prevent and treat symptoms of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Asthma is a chronic (long-term) respiratory condition in which airways narrow, swell, and produce extra mucus, leading to difficulty breathing. COPD is a group of lung diseases that includes emphysema (shortness of breath) and chronic bronchitis (inflammation of the lining of the bronchial tubes).
Deriphyllin Syrup contains Theophylline and Etofylline, which work by relaxing muscles and widening the airways of the lungs. Thus, it makes breathing easier.
Take Deriphyllin Syrup as prescribed. You are advised to take Deriphyllin Syrup for as long as your doctor recommends, based on your medical condition. Sometimes, you may experience nausea, vomiting, headache, restlessness, dizziness, irregular heartbeat, or stomach upset. Most of the side effects of Deriphyllin Syrup do not require medical attention and usually resolve on their own over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.
If you are allergic to Deriphyllin Syrup or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, it is advised to inform your doctor before using Deriphyllin Syrup . Do not take Deriphyllin Syrup if you have a heart rhythm disorder. If your breathing worsens or you often wake up at night with asthma and experience chest tightness in the morning, please consult a doctor immediately, as these might be signs indicating that your asthma is not appropriately controlled and requires an alternate or additional treatment.
