Uniphyllin (Theophylline)

Uniphyllin is an asthma and lung disease treatment medication available by prescription and most used to prevent wheezing and shortness of breath for asthma and COPD sufferers. Theophylline is a xanthine class drug that relaxes the muscles around the airway and causes them to open up more for easier breathing. It will also decrease the lungs’ response to irritants and may be used in conjunction with maintenance inhalers when used for asthma.

What is Asthma?

Asthma is a lung and pulmonary health disorder where inflammation causes the airways into the lungs to become constricted and limiting the airflow into the lungs for breathing. Symptoms can include shortness of breath, wheezing, and cough. The disorder is manageable, and most sufferers will not have to go for medical attention when having an asthma attack, but for some it may be required based on the severity of their asthma.
