Abstract:
There is provided a method of enhancing the retention of dyphylline in the human system. Dyphylline is a known bronchodilator whose pharmacological utility has been considerably restricted by its short in vivo half life. The retention of dyphylline in the system has been enhanced by coadministration of probenecid. The utility of dyphylline in asthma therapy is therefore considerably enhanced.
