Nine patients with acute cardiogenic pulmonary edema were given theophylline intravenously, and its disposition was observed over the next 24 hr. Compared to that in 19 normal subjects, these patients had prolonged plasma half-lifes (mean, 22.9 from 6.7 hr) and decreased plasma clearances of
In diseases with generalized edema caused by decompensated heart and liver diseases or kidney failure digitalis preparations, diuretics and theophylline -- if lung disease accompanies one of the above states -- are often used. Literature dealing with theophylline, digoxin and furosemide
Pulmonary surfactant activity of healthy male albino rats was estimated in terms of the maximum and minimum surface tension values of alveolar washings and the phospholipid content of the extract. The results obtained in these (control) animals were compared with those in two groups of animals
High-altitude pulmonary edema reflects a potentially life-threatening condition affecting susceptible persons in the second night after ascent to altitudes above 2500 m. Currently, nifedipine is the only pharmacological intervention approved for both, prevention and treatment of high-altitude
Theophylline increases and triodothyronine decreases uterine edema induced by physiological doses of estradiol-17 beta. Both of them decrease estrogen-induced uterine eosinophilia and the number of blood eosinophils, suggesting an explanation for the results in the uterus.
Uterine edema induced by 0.1 microgram/100 g body wt of estradiol further increases in the presence of theophylline. Theophylline alone or in the presence of 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, and 1 microgram/100 g body wt of estradiol increases uterine RNA and protein content 6 h after its administration, as
The pathophysiology of acute, negative-pressure pulmonary edema following post-anesthetic laryngospasm (PLPE) is unclear. We present a patient and review the literature to propose etiology and management. Nineteen reported patients (3 female, 16 male, aged 3 months to 60 years) with PLPE had
A 36-year-old woman was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit for the treatment of severe asthma exacerbation. Her condition of asthma improved with systemic glucocorticosteroids, inhaled beta2-agonist, intravenous theophylline and inhaled anesthesia (isoflurane) under mechanical ventilation. Her
Two asthmatic children who developed status epilepticus during theophylline treatment followed by semi-coma were reported. They suffered from severe neurological sequelae. A two-year-old male received oral maintenance theophylline therapy and a four-year-old male received intravenous theophylline
Transdermal formulations containing theophylline and salbutamol sulfate (SS) were formulated using hydroxypropylmethylcellulose. Theophylline was loaded by adsorption with the aid of the coadsorbate sodium chloride. The formulations were subjected to in vitro release studies, and the dose of
Delayed pressure urticaria (DPU) is a skin condition that involves the gradual development of wheals and edema at sites of physical pressure. Its pathogenesis is not clear and histamine-1 receptor (H-1R) antagonists provide only partial relief. In this prospective, clinical study, we investigated
