Aminophylline may be used to relieve wheezing, shortness of breath and
troubled breathing.
Use exactly as ordered by your physician. It must be taken on a regular
schedule to be most effective.
May be taken with food or milk if stomach upset occurs.
If you miss a dose take it as soon as you remember it then take the rest of
the day's doses at evenly spaced intervals. Do not double a dose or take
(or give to a child) more than prescribed.
Upset stomach, nervousness or restlessness may occur initially and often
disappear with continued use. Contact your physician or pharmacist if these
persist or if you experience a rapid heart rate, persistent headache,
confusion, vomiting or other unusual symptoms. Avoidance of caffeine
containing beverages (coffee, tea, colas) will minimize nervousness.
