Medicine Description amriphylline-suppostories 300mg
Amriphylline Suppositories Bronchodilator for Asthma | 100mg and 300mg is a medication that combines ambroxol and theophylline to exert a bronchodilatory effect. Theophylline is a xanthine derivative that relaxes bronchial smooth muscle, leading to an expansion of the air passages in the lungs. It does this by inhibiting phosphodiesterase, which increases cyclic AMP levels within cells, resulting in smooth muscle relaxation. Ambroxol, on the other hand, is primarily a mucolytic agent that enhances the clearance of mucus from the airways, improving lung function and reducing airway obstruction. Together, these ingredients facilitate better airflow, alleviate symptoms of respiratory distress, and enhance overall pulmonary function.
