Etophylline, Theophylline and Salbutamol Tablets are a combination medicine designed to help patients with respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

What Are Etophylline, Theophylline, and Salbutamol Tablets?

Etophylline and Theophylline belong to a group of medicines called methylxanthines, which help relax the muscles in the lungs and chest to improve airflow. Salbutamol, a bronchodilator, works by widening the air passages and making it easier to breathe.

Together, Etophylline, Theophylline and Salbutamol Tablets offer a dual action for effective respiratory support in both chronic and acute conditions.

How Do Etophylline, Theophylline and Salbutamol Tablets Work?

• Etophylline & Theophylline Mechanism of Action: These compounds inhibit phosphodiesterase enzymes, leading to smooth muscle relaxation in the airways. They also help in reducing inflammation and improving breathing.

• Salbutamol Action: Salbutamol stimulates beta-2 adrenergic receptors in the lungs, causing the bronchi to expand, relieving breathlessness and wheezing.

The combination ensures rapid relief along with long-term airway support.
