Directions for Use
This is a prescription medicine. Take only as directed by your doctor. Usually one tablet twice daily, swallowed whole with water (do not crush or chew the sustained-release tablet), at the same times each day, ideally consistently in relation to food. Do not switch brands without advice, as levels can differ. Keep taking it regularly, and attend any blood-level tests your doctor arranges.
Theophylline has a narrow safety margin. Tell your doctor about nausea, vomiting, a fast or irregular heartbeat, shakiness, restlessness or seizures, which can signal too high a level. Many things affect its levels. Tell your doctor about other medicines (including some antibiotics), smoking, and illnesses such as fever or heart/liver problems. Limit caffeine. Do not double doses. Store below 30°C. This product information is for general guidance only and does not replace professional medical advice. Keep all medicines out of reach of children.
