Diprophylline
CAS#:479-18-5
Specification:BP/EP/USP
Packing:25KG/Fiber Drum
Molecular Formula:C10H14N4Q4
Structural Formula:
It is an inhibitor to phosphodiesterase. It is used in the therapy of bronchial asthma, gasping bronchitis and gasping from cardiogenic pulmonary edema. It can soothe the symptom of gasping through loosening bronchial smooth muscle, increasing cardiac blood output, expanding kidney arteriole, increasing glomerulus filtration and renal blood flow, inhibiting distal end renal tubule’s reabsorption of sodion and chloridion, and increasing contractility of hanging skeletal muscle. Its action of expanding bronchus is only one tenth of that of aminophylline. It can easily be absorbed orally, metabolize to derivants of theophylline in vivo, and are excreted with urine.
