Pregnancy interaction

 

• Be careful: you should only use Duphill-M Tablets while pregnant if you really need to and under the care of a doctor.

 

Information on risks:

How It Works

 

• Doxofylline is a xanthine derivative that relaxes the muscles in the bronchial tubes, opens up the airways, and enhances airflow, making it easier to breathe.

 

• Montelukast is a leukotriene receptor antagonist that stops things from causing inflammation, edema, and narrowing of the airways.

 

• They work together to clear the airways, stop asthma symptoms, and improve lung function as a whole.

 

 

Medicines interaction

 

• Antibiotics: Ciprofloxacin and Erythromycin (may raise the level of doxofylline).
