Riaphyllin syrup patient information leaflet
1. RIAPHYLLIN® SYRUP100ML
COMPOSITION:
Syrup: Each5 ml contains 60 mg Theophylline BP.
CUNICALPHARMACOLOGY:
Riaphyllin pharmacologically acts as a bronchodilator, pulmonary
vasodilator and smooth muscle relaxant. Since it directly relaxes
the smooth muscles of bronchial airways and pulmonary blood
vessels,its actions are believed to be mediated through inhibition
of phosphodiesterase and a resultant increase in intracellular cyclic
-AMP.
INDICATIONS:
Riaphyllin is indicated for the treatment of the symptoms and
reversible airflow obstruction associated with chronic asthma and
other chronic lung diseases, e.g., emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
CONTRAINDICATIONS:
Riaphyllin is contraindicated in patients with hypersensitivity
(allergic) to theophylline or any of the other ingredients of this
product.
Riaphyllin is contraindicated in children taking ephedrine (found in
some cough medicines and decongestants).
PRECAUTIONS:
Theophylline should be used with caution in patients with severe
cardiac disease, hypertension, hyperthyroidism, acute myocardial
injury, congestive heart failure, hepatic impairment and epilepsy.
It should be used with caution in patients with peptic ulcer and in
patients who are sensitive to Xanthine derivatives.
Smoking may increase theophylline clearance and increased doses of
theophylline might therefore be required.
WARNING:
Contains Sulphites: Can cause allergic type reactions including
anaphylactic symptoms, or severe asthmatic episodes in susceptible
persons.
The herbal remedy St. Johns wort (Hypericum perforatum) should
not be taken at the sametime asthis medicine. If you alreadytake St.
Johnswort, consult your doctor before stopping the St. Johns wort
preparations.

monitored in such situations.
