Résumé
Activated charcoal binds theophylline in the gut and increases its elimination, including from the circulation with repeated doses. This reduces bronchodilator effect at therapeutic doses but is valuable in theophylline overdose.
Ce que signifie cette interaction, en termes simples
Charcoal and Theophylline can affect each other. The combination is often manageable, but it may need a change of dose, a change of timing, or extra checks while both are taken.
Charcoal belongs to Gastrointestinal Tract; Theophylline belongs to Respiratory.
Pourquoi elle survient
Charcoal adsorbs theophylline in the gut and enhances its elimination by gastrointestinal dialysis.
Conduite à tenir
Avoid concurrent charcoal during therapeutic theophylline use or separate doses by several hours. In overdose, give repeated-dose charcoal and monitor serum theophylline levels.
