Product Description
Mechanism of Action
Etamiphylline is a xanthine bronchodilator closely related to theophylline but with modified potency and reduced CNS stimulation. It increases intracellular cAMP through phosphodiesterase inhibition, relaxing bronchial smooth muscle and improving airflow.
Benefits and Advantages
Used in PDE‑inhibition studies, bronchodilator SAR research, airway‑reactivity modelling, and asthma/COPD mechanistic assays.
Side Effects and Risks
Risks include tachycardia, nausea, tremor, restlessness and rare arrhythmias. Handle with xanthine‑bronchodilator precautions.
