Eur Review Med Pharma Sci 1999; 3:255-60. Doxofylline-Clinical effecacy in reducing weekly salbutamol consumption In a multicentre,randomised trial on adult patient with COPD given either doxyfylline 400 mg b.i.d or Theophylline 300 mg b.i.d for 28 days Consumption of salbutamol Theophylline - 38% Doxofylline - 47% Doxofylline significantly decreased concurrent Salbutamol consumption Doxofylline – Clinical efficacy Asthma: overall clinical data on 806 children(age 3-16,mean 8;61%≤10 yrs) % 60 45 % 54 40 50 35 35 30 40 25 29 30 20 15 20 10 41 9 8 13 11 fair poor 10 5 0 0 very good good fair poor Doxofylline efficacy favorable in 91% very good good Doxofylline safety was favorable in 89% Bagnoto GF. Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci 2000, in press Doxofylline Safety - Clinical • 48 studies, 1056 subjects • Total prevalence of side-effects : 15.2% • Overall risk for any adverse event : 1.8 events per patient-year • Total dropouts : 3% • Treatment interruptions for any reason: 0.4 per patient-year Conclusion • Inhaled steroids are the most effective controller medications currently avaiable • Multicenter study :- Theophylline serum conc. <10mcg/ml provided nearly as much effect as an inhaled steroids, beclomethasone, in controlling chronic asthma Conclusion • Sustained-release theophylline can be used as an alternative to inhaled steroids for maintenance therapy in mild persistent asthma • Sustained-release theophylline can be added with a low dose inhaled steroids in asthma control Conclusion • Doxofylline is effective in the long-term treatment of obstructive pulmonary diseases • It is safer and has greater therapeutic index than theophylline or aminophylline • Can be used in children, elderly, patients with CVS,CNS and GI diseases Conclusion • There is no evidence that Doxofylline effectiveness or adverse events are related to blood levels • As a consequence there is no need for continued measurements blood level during long-term treatment ขอขอบคุณ บริษทั ยูโรดรัก ลาบอราทอรีส์
