Product Description
Mechanism of action
Bamifyllin is a xanthine derivative with moderate phosphodiesterase inhibition and adenosinereceptor antagonism. These effects lead to increased intracellular cAMP, bronchodilation and improved respiratory airflow. Bamifyllin exhibits greater airway selectivity and fewer cardiac effects than older xanthines like theophylline.
Benefits and advantages
Used in respiratory pharmacology, xanthine SAR studies, PDEinhibition modelling, adenosinereceptor research and airwaysmoothmuscle physiology investigations.
Side effects and risks
Risks include nausea, headache, mild CNS stimulation, arrhythmias at high concentrations and tremor. Handle with methylxanthineappropriate laboratory precautions.
