Deriphyllin Syrup 200 ml

Deriphyllin Syrup is used to relax the airways, improve airflow, and help manage long-term breathing conditions, including:

• Asthma: Deriphyllin Syrup helps prevent and control asthma symptoms by relaxing the muscles around the airways, making it easier to breathe.
• Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD): This medicine reduces ongoing breathing difficulties associated with COPD by keeping the air passages open over time.
• Chronic Bronchitis: It helps clear mucus and eases chest tightness by widening the inflamed airways in the lungs.
• Emphysema: By relieving spasms in the lung muscles, the syrup improves airflow and reduces severe shortness of breath.

The benefits of Deriphyllin Syrup include improving breathing, reducing respiratory symptoms, supporting better physical activity, and helping you manage chronic lung conditions more comfortably.

• Makes breathing easier: Relaxes the muscles around the airways, helping air move more freely into and out of the lungs.
• Reduces wheezing and chest tightness: Helps prevent frequent wheezing episodes and relieves the feeling of tightness in the chest.
• Supports better daily activity: Improved airflow allows you to perform everyday tasks and physical activities with less breathlessness.
• Promotes more comfortable rest: Better control of coughing and breathing difficulties may help reduce nighttime symptoms and improve sleep quality.

• Deriphyllin Syrup can be taken with or without food.
• It should be used as directed by your physician, with dosage and timing based on individual factors and medical conditions.
• Measure the prescribed dose using the measuring cup provided in the pack and administer it orally.
• Shake the bottle well before use. Avoid using regular household spoons, as they may not measure the dose accurately.

• Limit caffeine intake: Avoid consuming large amounts of coffee, tea, cola, energy drinks, chocolate, and other caffeinated products, as caffeine may increase the risk of side effects such as jitteriness, tremors, and a rapid heartbeat.
• Stay well hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help keep mucus thin, making it easier to clear from your lungs.
• Avoid breathing triggers: Minimise exposure to tobacco smoke, dust, pollen, pet dander, strong fumes, and cold air, as these can worsen breathing symptoms.
• Quit smoking: If you smoke, speak with your healthcare provider about smoking cessation support, as smoking can reduce the effectiveness of Deriphyllin Syrup and further damage your lungs.
   

• Inspect the syrup before use: Check the bottle before each dose and do not use it if the liquid appears cloudy, has changed colour, or contains visible particles.
• Avoid alcohol: Do not consume alcohol while taking Deriphyllin Syrup , as it can increase the risk of side effects such as dizziness, headache, nausea, and stomach irritation.
• Attend regular monitoring appointments: Keep all scheduled follow-up visits, as your doctor may arrange periodic blood tests to monitor theophylline levels, particularly when starting treatment, changing the dose, starting or stopping interacting medicines, changing smoking habits, or if side effects develop. These tests help ensure the medicine remains both safe and effective..
• This medicine has a narrow therapeutic range: Small changes in dose, certain medicines, smoking habits, or some illnesses can significantly affect the amount of theophylline in your body and increase the risk of side effects or toxicity. Never change your dose without consulting your doctor 
  Inform your healthcare providers: Tell your doctor, dentist, pharmacist, or other healthcare professionals that you are taking Deriphyllin Syrup , especially before starting new medicines or undergoing medical tests.
• Do not stop the medicine suddenly: Continue taking Deriphyllin Syrup exactly as prescribed and do not change the dose or stop treatment without consulting your doctor, even if your breathing symptoms improve.
