Xanthine half-life may be increased and clearance decreased by interaction with cimetidine, allopurinol, propranolol, erythromycin, troleandomycin, lincomycin, ciprofloxacin, and anti-flu vaccine. In these cases, the dose of doxofylline may be reduced.
Xanthine half-life may be decreased and clearance increased by phenytoin, anticonvulsants, and smoking. In these cases, a higher dose of doxofylline may be required.
