Thenglate Syrup 120 mg/5 ml contains Theophylline, a bronchodilator used primarily for the management of respiratory conditions such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Theophylline belongs to the xanthine class of medications and works by relaxing the smooth muscles of the airways, improving airflow, and reducing bronchospasm.

Thenglate Syrup 120 mg/5 ml is designed for oral administration, making it suitable for both adults and children who require a liquid formulation. The syrup allows precise dosing for patients who may have difficulty swallowing tablets and provides consistent absorption for effective control of respiratory symptoms.

Indications

Thenglate Syrup 120 mg/5 ml is indicated for:

• Bronchial asthma: Relief of bronchospasm and prevention of acute asthma attacks

• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD): Improves airflow and reduces shortness of breath in chronic bronchitis and emphysema

• Other chronic respiratory conditions: Where bronchodilation is required to relieve symptoms of airway obstruction

The syrup is useful as maintenance therapy to improve breathing, reduce episodes of wheezing, and enhance overall lung function. It may also be used as adjunct therapy in combination with inhaled corticosteroids or other bronchodilators under medical supervision.

Mechanism of Action

Theophylline in Thenglate Syrup works through several complementary mechanisms:

• Bronchodilation: Relaxation of smooth muscles in the bronchi and bronchioles, leading to widening of the airways and improved airflow

• Phosphodiesterase inhibition: Increases intracellular cyclic AMP levels, resulting in smooth muscle relaxation and decreased inflammation

• Anti-inflammatory effects: Reduces the release of inflammatory mediators, helping to control chronic airway inflammation

• Improved diaphragmatic contractility: Enhances respiratory muscle performance, reducing fatigue in patients with chronic respiratory disease

These combined actions help improve breathing, relieve symptoms of bronchospasm, and enhance exercise tolerance in patients with obstructive airway diseases.

Dosage and Administration

• Usual dose for adults: 120 mg orally, 2–3 times daily, as directed by a physician

• Usual dose for children: Calculated according to body weight; dosing must be carefully adjusted by a healthcare professional

• Shake the bottle well before measuring the dose

• Use a calibrated measuring spoon or syringe to ensure accurate dosing

• Consistent dosing is essential to maintain therapeutic blood levels and prevent relapse of symptoms

• Monitor for signs of overdose, including nausea, vomiting, palpitations, or tremors

Precautions and Warnings

• Heart conditions: Use with caution in patients with arrhythmias, heart failure, or ischemic heart disease

• Liver or kidney impairment: Dose adjustments may be necessary, as Theophylline is metabolized in the liver and excreted by the kidneys

• Drug interactions: Inform your physician of all medications, as Theophylline can interact with certain antibiotics, anticonvulsants, and anti-inflammatory drugs

• Pregnancy and breastfeeding: Use only if clearly necessary and under medical supervision
