Item code: 952799

Indications 

Doxiva is used to treat in following indications: 

• Bronchial asthma,
• Bronchospasm,
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD),
• Pulmonary disease with spastic bronchial component.

Pharmacology 
Doxophylline is a novel bronchodilator. It structurally differs from Theophylline due to the presence of a dioxolane group in position 7. Doxophylline selectively inhibits phosphodiesterase 4 thereby relaxes bronchial smooth muscle. However, differently from Theophylline, Doxophylline appears to have decreased affinities toward adenosine A1 and A2 receptors, which may account for the better safety profile of the drug. Doxophylline is reported to inhibit platelet activating factor (PAF) and generation of leukotriene production.
