Allergy and Asthma Proceedings, 1996
For over 50 years, theophylline has been used regularly for the management of chronic asthma. However, because of its perceived narrow therapeutic index and the fact that it has been considered a weak bronchodilator, the use of theophylline therapy has diminished.

Theophylline toxicity continues to be a commonly encountered clinical problem. Patients may present with a vast array of toxic manifestations, including life-threatening cardiovascular and neurologic toxicity. Despite the considerable attention this topic has received in the literature, there remain some important controversies regarding the ...

Journal of Dialysis, 1978
We have shown that theophylline is highly dialysable with an average dialysis clearance of 76 ml/min approaching 63% of urea clearance with hemodialysis. Implications include dose adjustment during dialysis and efficacy of dialytic technique in the treatment of theophylline intoxication.

Pediatrics, 1976
In this issue of Pediatrics, Ellis et al.1 have a study of the pharmocokinetics of theophylline, a study which is 40 years overdue and which was technically feasible 25 years ago. They show that children are not "little adults" in that the dosage of theophylline and the dosing intervals in children cannot be based on adult studies.

To the Editor.— The conclusions in the recent letter by Kossoy et al1 and the reply by Sahney2 regarding the original report3 suggesting conservative treatment of high theophylline levels until neurologic signs are present do not adequately consider the high frequency of mortality and serious neurologic sequelae once theophylline-induced

Theophylline Toxicity due to Impaired Theophylline Degradation
American Review of Respiratory Disease, 1974Abstract A 72-year-old man with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and normal liver function had convulsions at a time when his serum theophylline level was 86 µg per ml. The day before convulsing he had received 960 mg of theophylline (17.5 mg per kg).

Regarding the article by Feldman et al1 concerning the interaction between diet and theophylline metabolism, we found ourselves wondering about the validity of one of their basic assumptions. The authors assumed that the bioavailability of the drug is "absolute," regardless of the various diets.

Theobromine and theophylline have a limited therapeutic use and in addition they occur in plants used in the preparation of a number of widely consumed drinks. Thus most of the population must be exposed to both compounds. Chromosome abnormalities are caused by both theobromine and theophylline in plant cells and in mammalian cells in culture, and both

Theophylline Blood Levels with Theophylline Ethylene Diamine
1976Theophylline blood levels following administration of theophylline ethylene diamine, intravenously, orally, and rectally, are compared and correlated with effectiveness of broncholytic action and toxicity. For long-term treatment of patients with airway obstructions the maintenance of constant theophylline plateau concentrations in plasma is desirable.
