MEDICATION (VET): Aminophylline is indicated for control of reversible airway constriction, to prevent bronchoconstriction, and as an adjunct with other respiratory disease treatment. The uses are are similar to the indications for theophylline because it is a salt form of theophylline. It is used for inflammatory airway disease in cats (feline asthma), dogs, and horses. In dogs, the uses include collapsing trachea, bronchitis, and other airway disease. It has not been effective for respiratory diseases in cattle.

Fatalities in adults have generally occurred during or following IV administration of large doses of aminophylline in patients with renal, hepatic, or cardiovascular complications. In other patients, the rapidity of the injection, rather than the dose used, appears to be the more important factor precipitating acute hypotension, seizures, coma, cardiac standstill, ventricular fibrillation, and death. IV aminophylline or theophylline should therefore be given slowly. In children, fatalities usually are a result of overdosage and marked sensitivity to the CNS stimulation of theophylline.

Theophyllines may also produce transiently increased urinary frequency, dehydration, twitching of fingers and hands, tachypnea, and elevated serum AST (SGOT) concentrations. Hypersensitivity reactions characterized by urticaria, generalized pruritus, and angioedema have been reported with aminophylline administration. A contact-type dermatitis, caused by hypersensitivity to the ethylenediamine component of aminophylline, has also been reported. Bone marrow suppression, leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and hemorrhagic diathesis have also been reported, but their association with theophylline therapy is questionable. Other adverse effects of theophyllines include albuminuria, increased urinary excretion of renal tubular cells and erythrocytes, hyperglycemia, and syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH). /Theophyllines/

When administered IM, theophylline is usually absorbed slowly and incompletely. Rectal suppositories (no longer commercially available in the US) are slowly and erratically absorbed, regardless of whether the suppository base is hydrophilic or lipophilic. /Theophylline/
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2016; Drug Information 2016. Bethesda, MD. 2016, p. 3607
Dissolution appears to be the rate-limiting step in the absorption of oral theophylline. Under the acidic conditions of the stomach, the theophylline salts and compounds release free theophylline. ... Microcrystalline dosage forms and oral solutions of theophyllines are absorbed more rapidly, but not to a greater extent, than are uncoated tablets. Although the rate of absorption is slower, extended-release preparations (capsules and tablets) of theophylline are generally absorbed to the same extent as uncoated tablets; however, the actual rate of absorption of extended-release preparations may differ. Extended-release preparations of theophyllines have been formulated to release the drug at various rates suitable for dosing every 8-12, 12, or 24 hours; however, the actual dosing frequency for a given patient depends on their individual pharmacokinetic parameters. Since the rate and extent of absorption may differ between various extended-release preparations and sometimes between different dosage sizes of the same preparation, patients should generally be stabilized on a given preparation; substitution of one extended-release preparation for another should generally only be made when the preparations have been shown to be equivalent and/or the patient is evaluated pharmacokinetically during the transition period. Absorption of theophyllines may also be delayed, but is generally not reduced, by the presence of food in the GI tract; however, the effect of food on the absorption of extended-release preparations appears to be variable, and the manufacturer's recommendations for administration of specific preparations should be followed. /Theophyllines/

Both the N-demethylation and hydroxylation pathways of theophylline biotransformation are capacity-limited. Due to the wide intersubject variability of the rate of theophylline metabolism, non-linearity of elimination may begin in some patients at serum theophylline concentrations <10 mcg/mL. Since this non-linearity results in more than proportional changes in serum theophylline concentrations with changes in dose, it is advisable to make increases or decreases in dose in small increments in order to achieve desired changes in serum theophylline concentrations. Accurate prediction of dose-dependency of theophylline metabolism in patients a priori is not possible, but patients with very high initial clearance rates (i.e., low steady-state serum theophylline concentrations at above average doses) have the greatest likelihood of experiencing large changes in serum theophylline concentration in response to dosage changes. /Theophylline/

Caffeine and 3-methylxanthine are the only theophylline metabolites with pharmacologic activity. 3-methylxanthine has approximately one tenth the pharmacologic activity of theophylline and serum concentrations in adults with normal renal function are <1 ug/mL. In patients with end-stage renal disease, 3-methylxanthine may accumulate to concentrations that approximate the unmetabolized theophylline concentration. Caffeine concentrations are usually undetectable in adults regardless of renal function. In neonates, caffeine may accumulate to concentrations that approximate the unmetabolized theophylline concentration and thus, exert a pharmacologic effect. /Theophylline/

Theophylline is metabolized by the liver to 1,3-dimethyluric acid, 1-methyluric acid, and 3-methylxanthine. ... Individuals metabolize theophylline at different rates; however, individual metabolism of the drug is generally reproducible. Theophylline and its metabolites are excreted mainly by the kidneys. Renal clearance of the drug, however, contributes only 8-12% of the overall plasma clearance of theophylline. Small amounts of theophylline are excreted in feces unchanged. /Theophylline/
American Society of Health-System Pharmacists 2016; Drug Information 2016. Bethesda, MD. 2016, p. 3607
Theophylline is metabolized via the microsomal cytochrome p450 system, primarily by the isozyme CYP1A2. The major pathway is demethylation to 3-methylxanthine in addition to being demethylated or oxidized to other metabolites. Less than 10% of theophylline is excreted in the urine unchanged. /Theophylline/
Goldfrank, L.R., Goldfrank's Toxicologic Emergencies 9th Ed. 2011., McGraw-Hill, New York, N.Y., p. 954
Following oral dosing, theophylline does not undergo any measurable first-pass elimination. In adults and children beyond one year of age, approximately 90% of the dose is metabolized in the liver. Biotransformation takes place through demethylation to 1-methylxanthine and 3-methylxanthine and hydroxylation to 1,3-dimethyluric acid. 1-methylxanthine is further hydroxylated, by xanthine oxidase, to 1-methyluric acid. About 6% of a theophylline dose is N-methylated to caffeine. Theophylline demethylation to 3-methylxanthine is catalyzed by cytochrome P-450 1A2, while cytochromes P-450 2E1 and P-450 3A3 catalyze the hydroxylation to 1,3-dimethyluric acid. Demethylation to 1-methylxanthine appears to be catalyzed either by cytochrome P-450 1A2 or a closely related cytochrome. In neonates, the N-demethylation pathway is absent while the function of the hydroxylation pathway is markedly deficient. The activity of these pathways slowly increases to maximal levels by one year of age. /Theophylline/

Theophylline clearance rates and half-life values were measured in 15 infants aged three to 23 months, after infusion of aminophylline by the intravenous route for at least 24 hours. ... The mean half-life was 4.4 +/- 2.2 hours. There was a tenfold variability in half-life, suggesting that individualization of theophylline dose is especially important in infants if undertreatment and toxicity are to be avoided.

Aminophylline is the ethylenediamine salt of theophylline. After ingestion, theophylline is released from aminophylline, and theophylline relaxes the smooth muscle of the bronchial airways and pulmonary blood vessels and reduces airway responsiveness to histamine, methacholine, adenosine, and allergen. Theophylline competitively inhibits type III and type IV phosphodiesterase (PDE), the enzyme responsible for breaking down cyclic AMP in smooth muscle cells, possibly resulting in bronchodilation. Theophylline also binds to the adenosine A2B receptor and blocks adenosine mediated bronchoconstriction. In inflammatory states, theophylline activates histone deacetylase to prevent transcription of inflammatory genes that require the acetylation of histones for transcription to begin.
Theophylline and aminophylline have been widely used as inhibitors of phosphodiesterase when examining the role of cAMP in regulating cell function. In reality, however, these phosphodiesterase inhibitors may have additional sites of action that could complicate the interpretation of the results. These additional sites of action could include antagonism of inhibitory adenosine autoreceptors and release of intracellular calcium. The purpose of the present study was to determine which of the above three is the primary mechanism by which theophylline and aminophylline affect transmitter release at the mammalian neuromuscular junction. Quantal release measurements were made using intracellular recording techniques. A variety of drugs were used to elucidate this pathway. Isoproterenol, an adenylate cyclase activator, was first used to establish the effect of enhanced levels of cAMP. Theophylline application on its own or in the presence of a drug combination that blocked the adenosine receptor and phosphodiesterase pathways caused significant release depression, opposite to what is expected if it was functioning to enhance cAMP levels. However, when applied in the presence of a drug combination that blocked the adenosine receptor, phosphodiesterase and intracellular ryanodine calcium pathways, theophylline was unable to depress release. Therefore, it was concluded that the major mechanism of action of theophylline is depression of transmitter release by causing the release of intracellular calcium. Aminophylline application alone resulted in a significant enhancement of release. However, when coupled with an adenosine receptor blocker, the ability of aminophylline to enhance transmitter release was blocked, suggesting that its dominant mechanism of action is adenosine receptor inhibition. Taken together, these results indicate that the use of theophylline and aminophylline is inappropriate when examining the role of cAMP at the mammalian neuromuscular junction.

Theophylline has two distinct actions in the airways of patients with reversible obstruction; smooth muscle relaxation (i.e., bronchodilation) and suppression of the response of the airways to stimuli (i.e., non-bronchodilator prophylactic effects). While the mechanisms of action of theophylline are not known with certainty, studies in animals suggest that bronchodilatation is mediated by the inhibition of two isozymes of phosphodiesterase (PDE III and, to a lesser extent, PDE IV) while non-bronchodilator prophylactic actions are probably mediated through one or more different molecular mechanisms, that do not involve inhibition of PDE III or antagonism of adenosine receptors. Some of the adverse effects associated with theophylline appear to be mediated by inhibition of PDE III (e.g., hypotension, tachycardia, headache, and emesis) and adenosine receptor antagonism (e.g., alterations in cerebral blood flow). Theophylline increases the force of contraction of diaphragmatic muscles. This action appears to be due to enhancement of calcium uptake through an adenosine-mediated channel. /Theophylline/

A Aminophylline CEP of the European Pharmacopoeia monograph is often referred to as a Aminophylline Certificate of Suitability (COS). The purpose of a Aminophylline CEP is to show that the European Pharmacopoeia monograph adequately controls the purity of Aminophylline EP produced by a given manufacturer. Suppliers of raw materials can prove the suitability of Aminophylline to their clients by showing that a Aminophylline CEP has been issued for it. The manufacturer submits a Aminophylline CEP (COS) as part of the market authorization procedure, and it takes on the role of a Aminophylline CEP holder for the record. Additionally, the data presented in the Aminophylline CEP (COS) is managed confidentially and offers a centralized system acknowledged by numerous nations, exactly like the Aminophylline DMF.
A Aminophylline CEP (COS) is recognised by all 36 nations that make up the European Pharmacopoeia Convention. Aminophylline CEPs may be accepted in nations that are not members of the Ph. Eur. at the discretion of the authorities there.

Aminophylline Active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is produced in GMP-certified manufacturing facility.
GMP stands for Good Manufacturing Practices, which is a system used in the pharmaceutical industry to make sure that goods are regularly produced and monitored in accordance with quality standards. The FDA’s current Good Manufacturing Practices requirements are referred to as cGMP or current GMP which indicates that the company follows the most recent GMP specifications. The World Health Organization (WHO) has its own set of GMP guidelines, called the WHO GMP. Different countries can also set their own guidelines for GMP like China (Chinese GMP) or the EU (EU GMP).
PharmaCompass offers a list of Aminophylline GMP manufacturers, exporters & distributors, which can be sorted by USDMF, JDMF, KDMF, CEP (COS), WC, API price, and more, enabling you to easily find the right Aminophylline GMP manufacturer or Aminophylline GMP API supplier for your needs.
A Aminophylline CoA (Certificate of Analysis) is a formal document that attests to Aminophylline's compliance with Aminophylline specifications and serves as a tool for batch-level quality control.
Aminophylline CoA mostly includes findings from lab analyses of a specific batch. For each Aminophylline CoA document that a company creates, the USFDA specifies specific requirements, such as supplier information, material identification, transportation data, evidence of conformity and signature data.
Aminophylline may be tested according to a variety of international standards, such as European Pharmacopoeia (Aminophylline EP), Aminophylline JP (Japanese Pharmacopeia) and the US Pharmacopoeia (Aminophylline USP).
