Overview

Retafyllin 200mg Tablet contains Theophylline 200mg and is available as a tablet. It is classified as a prescription medicine and may only be obtained with a valid prescription from a registered medical practitioner.

Only product, safety and handling information is published here. Anything beyond that is explained to you directly by your doctor or pharmacist as part of your consultation.

DoctorOnCall is a licensed online pharmacy. Orders for Retafyllin 200mg Tablet are processed only after a doctor has assessed your suitability and issued a prescription, and every order is checked by a registered pharmacist before it is sent out.

Directions for Use

Take Retafyllin 200mg Tablet at consistent times each day, generally with a consistent relationship to meals as advised by your doctor, since food can affect absorption of some formulations. If your tablet is a sustained- or prolonged-release formulation, swallow it whole with water – do not crush, chew, or split it, as this can alter how the dose is released.

Dosage

The dose of Retafyllin 200mg Tablet is individualised for each patient based on body weight, smoking status, and periodic blood theophylline level monitoring, because the effective dose is close to the dose that can cause toxicity. Your doctor will determine your starting dose, adjust it based on blood test results, and set the monitoring schedule that is right for you.

Storage Instructions

Store below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children.

Drug / Food Interactions

  • Cigarette smoking speeds up theophylline elimination and can lower blood levels – dose changes may be needed if you start or stop smoking
  • Certain antibiotics (e.g. ciprofloxacin, erythromycin, clarithromycin) can raise theophylline blood levels and increase toxicity risk
  • Cimetidine and some antifungal medicines can also raise theophylline levels
  • Phenytoin, carbamazepine, and rifampicin can lower theophylline levels, reducing its effectiveness
  • High caffeine intake may add to stimulant-type side effects such as palpitations and insomnia

Quick Tips

  • Attend all scheduled blood tests to check your theophylline level
  • Tell your doctor immediately if you start or stop smoking, as your dose may need adjusting
  • Report symptoms such as persistent nausea, tremor, or a fast/irregular heartbeat promptly
