ABSTRACT
The effect of a standard breakfast and a fatty breakfast on the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of a theophylline liquid preparation (160 mg-single dose) was examined in 6 healthy, non-smoking male volunteers. The plasma theophylline concentrations after both standard and fatty diet were found to be comparable at each point of time and pharmacokinetic parameters like Cmax, Tmax, T1/2a, T1/2 beta and AUC0-alpha, were also comparable. However, the time taken to attain the therapeutic plasma concentration was earlier and sustained along with the standard breakfast in comparison to that with fatty breakfast. Peak change in PEFR and pulse rate was also observed earlier with the standard diet than with fatty diet. The plasma theophylline concentrations produced after both diets were insufficient to produce any detectable change in subjective symptoms like tremor palpitation, heart burn, nausea, restlessness and tenseness. However, theophylline after fatty breakfast was better tolerated than that after a standard breakfast.
