Quibron T Sr 100 Tablets

Quibron T Sr 100 Tablets

Description:

Quibron T SR 300 mg is a sustained-release prescription bronchodilator medicine containing theophylline, used for long-term management of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Each tablet is formulated to release the active ingredient slowly over time, helping to maintain stable theophylline levels in the blood for prolonged bronchodilation and improved breathing. It is typically used as adjunct therapy in patients with reversible airway obstruction, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema under medical supervision.

Indications:

• Long-term management of bronchial asthma in adults and children as prescribed by a physician.
• Treatment and prevention of symptoms of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
• Relief and prevention of wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath due to reversible airway obstruction.
• May be used as adjunct therapy in patients whose symptoms are not adequately controlled with inhaled bronchodilators and corticosteroids, as directed by a doctor.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Theophylline – 300 mg per sustained-release tablet.
• Other inactive ingredients (excipients) are not specified in the available information (For full ingredient information, please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website.).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Use only as prescribed by a physician. Dosage must be individualized based on age, body weight, clinical response, and serum theophylline levels.
• Typical adult dosing for sustained-release theophylline is usually given every 12 hours, but exact dose and frequency must be determined by the doctor.
• Swallow the tablets whole with a full glass of water. Do not crush, chew, or break the tablets, as this will destroy the sustained-release properties and may increase the risk of side effects.
• Can be taken with or without food; however, take it consistently in the same manner (always with food or always without food) to maintain stable blood levels.
• Do not exceed the prescribed dose. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed one.
• Regular monitoring of serum theophylline concentration may be required, especially at the start of therapy, dose changes, in the elderly, or in patients with liver, heart, or kidney problems.

Clinical Benefits:

• Provides sustained bronchodilation by relaxing smooth muscles of the airways, helping keep air passages open for easier breathing.
• Helps reduce the frequency and severity of asthma attacks and COPD exacerbations when used as maintenance therapy.
• Improves airflow, reduces wheezing, and relieves chest tightness associated with chronic bronchitis and emphysema.
• Supports better exercise tolerance and daily activity in patients with chronic respiratory diseases when used as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.

Warnings & Contraindications:

• Contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity or allergy to theophylline or other xanthine derivatives.
• Use with extreme caution in patients with heart disease (e.g., arrhythmias, heart failure), uncontrolled hypertension, hyperthyroidism, peptic ulcer, liver disease, kidney impairment, or seizure disorders.
• Smoking, certain foods, and many medications (such as some antibiotics, anticonvulsants, and oral contraceptives) can affect theophylline levels. Inform your doctor about all medicines, supplements, and herbal products you are taking.
• Consult your doctor before use if pregnant or planning pregnancy. Theophylline passes into breast milk; breastfeeding mothers should use only under medical advice.
• Do not use for acute asthma attacks or sudden shortness of breath; it is not a rescue medication. A fast-acting inhaled bronchodilator should be used for acute symptoms as prescribed.
• Avoid excessive intake of caffeine-containing beverages (coffee, tea, cola) as they may increase side effects such as nervousness, palpitations, and insomnia.
• Not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease without medical supervision.
• Keep out of reach of children.
• If signs of theophylline toxicity occur (severe nausea, vomiting, restlessness, rapid heartbeat, seizures), stop the medicine and seek urgent medical attention.

Side Effects:

• Common side effects may include nausea, vomiting, stomach discomfort, heartburn, headache, nervousness, irritability, tremor, difficulty sleeping, or palpitations.
• Less common but serious side effects can include rapid or irregular heartbeat, severe vomiting, muscle twitching, confusion, seizures, or severe drop in blood pressure.
• Stop using the product and seek immediate medical attention if you experience severe or persistent vomiting, severe headache, chest pain, fainting, seizures, or signs of allergic reaction such as rash, itching, swelling of the face or throat, or difficulty breathing.
