Deriphyllin Injection 2Ml

Deriphyllin Injection can interact with medications, including:

• Antihypertensives such as propranolol. Concurrent use with antihypertensive medications, like propranolol, may lead to enhanced blood pressure-lowering effects, causing excessive hypotension.
• Anti-tubercular medications such as rifampin. It may accelerate the metabolism of theophylline in this injection, potentially reducing its effectiveness.
• Anti-epileptics such as phenytoin. Antiepileptic medications may increase the metabolism of theophylline, affecting its levels in the body.
• Xanthine oxidase inhibitors such as allopurinol. The concurrent use of allopurinol may increase theophylline levels in the blood, leading to toxicity.
• Antibiotics such as azithromycin, ciprofloxacin, clarithromycin, tetracycline, and erythromycin. These antibiotics can interfere with the metabolism of theophylline, altering its levels and increasing the risk of adverse effects.
• Anticonvulsants such as carbamazepine: It may enhance the metabolism of theophylline, potentially reducing its efficacy.
• Stomach acid reducers such as cimetidine. It can inhibit the metabolism of theophylline, leading to increased theophylline levels.
• Oral contraceptives such as estrogen. Concurrent use of oral contraceptives containing estrogen may affect the metabolism of theophylline.
