You need to get yourself evaluated by pulmonologist near u. I doubt pft can be done at this hour (due to covid 19 threat) but you will surely get proper guidance. Only oral tablets is not a good solution for asthma.
Inhalers are required even if in small quantity. Also visit a gynaecologist regarding your menstrual problem ,take care.
Deriphyllin is not recommended for asthma and allergy.
Treatment for asthma and allergy are inhalers, anti-allergy tablets.
You will need a lung function test, chest xray, ige and cbc level following which your inhaler dose and tablets can be decided.
Hello lybrate-user, no as with any medication it is not safe. I suggest you to only use it when you have acute exacerbations of the allergic rhinitis.
Hope it helped.

Hi.
Any medication can cause side effects.
Deriphylline will have some adverse effects if you use inappropriately.
Please use the medication as per your doctors advise.
Dear lybrateuser,
- The difference between the two is basically the rate of release of the drug into the blood stream & body
- retard is usually taken once a day as it is effective throughout the day & plain deriphyllin may have to be taken 2-3 times a day.
