Add on drugs that are usually prescribed by a consultant part 1 (LAMAs, add-on inhalers, theo)
THEOPHYLLINE/
AMINOPHYLLINE
(Uniphyllin) The old fashioned ‘wonder drug’ that no doc likes prescribing cause it’s ‘tricky’ 😂. Levels too low (technically under 10, but docs tend to be happy if you’re over 8) you’re untherapeutic, levels too high (over 20) and you’re toxic.

Aminophylline level
They used to check my blood
aminophylline
level regularly when I attended cl8nics in person so obviously this is not currently being done. My breathing is so bad now that even getting from living room to toilet and back I need to recover.

Newly Diagnosed
I made an appointment with a pulmonologist, had a blood test, CT scan of my chest and the doctor said it's most likely asthma and prescribed me with Ventolin inhaler, a Budesonide/Formoterol inhaler and
aminophylline
pill. I took the Ventolin inhaler 3 times a day-1 puff.

Sleep and asthma; Why do we usually go dodgy at night?
Those on
aminophylline
/theophylline tablets, who find they keep waking at the same time of night, then having issues at the same time of day - go get your levels checked!

Extreme Anxiety
I’m wondering whether the
aminophylline
has caused the increase in anxiety and whether I should stop the medication? Thankyou!

Asthma and pulse rate
I recently had me
Aminophylline
tablets increased and this was because it was low for a long time and I kept having flare ups. Throughout my check ups I noticed that my pulse rates (prior to the increase would be quiet high) like 121 or 113.

Causes for Aminophylline levels to go down?
Hi all, I am set to increase my
aminophylline
tomorrow but this after my levels came out low repeatedly. So I had it done in October last year it was 9 and then had it rechecked this year and it’s at 6.

IgE mediated allergies now non-IgE mediated.
And I spent years being told I was non-compliant as my theophylline levels were always low and than I was accidentally given a gram of
aminophylline
in an hour and my levels only went to 19 and were back to 4 within 12 hours, so now I'm on silly high doses and actually have a therapeutic level The plan

Amber zone treatment
Ideally I’d check myself in for a day or two on
Aminophylline
and avoid a two week admission. Saving major drama for my family and work... This just doesn’t seem to be an option. Does anyone have any thoughts about some kind of middle ground treatment?

Will it ever be easier??
"difficult asthma clinic" and may be able to help with my "brittle asthma" although it feels as though they are just passing the buck as my local hospital and consultant seem to be out of ideas what to do with me because I dont present they way the drs would expect and their ways of treating me I.e

My eosinophils are extremely high ...HELP !
Took many hours but thankfully they eventually they managed, after using huge amounts of
aminophylline
and something else, to save me.

Bring on the xolair!
So I’m now sat on my old friend IV
aminophylline
on respiratory HDU and have just had critical care mentioned to me as a legitimate possibility if I deteriorate again 😔 I’ve had critical care outreach review me a few times before but the possibility of going up to ITU hasn’t ever been brought up before

Good news and bad news
It’s just really annoying because at the moment I’m so unstable - I’ve had 6 admissions this year, most of which have been about a week long, I think I’ve needed oxygen for quite a while on all of them, I’ve had IV
aminophylline
for half of them and been on HDU once.
