    Area of Science:

    • Pharmacology
    • Clinical Medicine
    • Drug Metabolism

    Background:

    • Theophylline is a widely used medication with complex physiological effects.
    • Understanding its pharmacodynamics is crucial for safe and effective clinical application.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To comprehensively review the pharmacodynamics of theophylline.
    • To elucidate the clinical consequences of theophylline's diverse effects.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of existing studies on theophylline.
    • Synthesis of data on cardiovascular, renal, CNS, gastrointestinal, uterine, and metabolic actions.

    Main Results:

    • Theophylline exerts significant effects on multiple organ systems.
    • Cardiovascular effects include potential arrhythmias and altered blood pressure.
    • Central nervous system (CNS) effects range from stimulation to seizures.

    Conclusions:

    • Theophylline's broad pharmacodynamic profile necessitates careful patient monitoring.
    • Clinical management should consider theophylline's impact on cardiovascular, renal, and CNS functions.
