Doxoven SR Tablet contains Doxophylline 400 mg in a sustained-release (SR) formulation, used for the management of respiratory conditions such as bronchial asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and chronic bronchitis. The sustained-release technology allows gradual release of the medicine, providing longer-lasting bronchodilation and improved symptom control throughout the day or night.
It is commonly prescribed for patients who require consistent airway relaxation and better long-term control of breathing difficulties.
