- Background
Bromotheophylline is the active moiety of pamabrom, a mixture of 2-amino-2-methyl-propanol and bromotheophylline. From this mixture, bromotheophylline acts as a weak diuretic that has been used along with some analgesics to relieve the symptoms of premenstrual syndrome.1 Bromotheophylline is categorized on the FDA as a drug substance with an inactive state since March, 1980.3 It is also approved by Health Canada to be used alone or in combination with Acetaminophen in OTC products.4

- Pharmacodynamics
Bromotheophylline diuretic action will produce an immediate increase in urination frequency. This effect aids in the relief of bloating and menstrual pain.1 This diuretic function is performed by the an increase in glomerular filtration and a potential effect in the tubular reabsorption as it is established that the administration of these agents produce a rise in the urinary concentration of sodium a chloride and thus, an increase in their rates of excretion.2
- Mechanism of action
Bromotheophylline is part of the group of the xanthines. As part of this group, it is thought that bromotheophylline increases the permeability of the renal tubule, increases glomerular filtration rate and inhibits the sodium reabsorption in the proximal tubule.2 It is thought but not confirmed that pamabrom as a mixture seems to have an additional mechanism of action in which the presence of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol produces the suppression of the antidiuretic hormone in the posterior pituitary gland.8
Target Actions Organism AAdenosine receptor antagonistHumans - Absorption
When administered after one single oral dosage, bromotheophylline is rapidly absorbed and it reaches a maximal plasma concentration of 2.5 mg/L in 0.78 hours. The mean residence time is registered to be of 12 hours with an AUC in the first 8 hours of 27 mg.h/L.7

interactions in your software1,2-Benzodiazepine The therapeutic efficacy of 1,2-Benzodiazepine can be decreased when used in combination with Bromotheophylline. Abacavir Bromotheophylline may increase the excretion rate of Abacavir which could result in a lower serum level and potentially a reduction in efficacy. Abametapir The serum concentration of Bromotheophylline can be increased when it is combined with Abametapir. Abatacept The metabolism of Bromotheophylline can be increased when combined with Abatacept. Abiraterone The serum concentration of Bromotheophylline can be increased when it is combined with Abiraterone. - Food Interactions

- This enzyme listing is based on pharmacokinetic data for methylxanthines as a drug class. Methylxanthines are metabolized by CYP1A2. This drug is a methylxanthine and is therefore assumed to be metabolized by this enzyme.
- General Function
- A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of various endogenous substrates, including fatty acids, steroid hormones and vitamins (PubMed:10681376, PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:9435160). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase) (PubMed:10681376, PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317, PubMed:19965576, PubMed:9435160). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon-hydrogen bonds (PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317). Exhibits high catalytic activity for the formation of hydroxyestrogens from estrone (E1) and 17beta-estradiol (E2), namely 2-hydroxy E1 and E2 (PubMed:11555828, PubMed:12865317). Metabolizes cholesterol toward 25-hydroxycholesterol, a physiological regulator of cellular cholesterol homeostasis (PubMed:21576599). May act as a major enzyme for all-trans retinoic acid biosynthesis in the liver. Catalyzes two successive oxidative transformation of all-trans retinol to all-trans retinal and then to the active form all-trans retinoic acid (PubMed:10681376). Primarily catalyzes stereoselective epoxidation of the last double bond of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA), displaying a strong preference for the (R,S) stereoisomer (PubMed:19965576). Catalyzes bisallylic hydroxylation and omega-1 hydroxylation of PUFA (PubMed:9435160). May also participate in eicosanoids metabolism by converting hydroperoxide species into oxo metabolites (lipoxygenase-like reaction, NADPH-independent) (PubMed:21068195). Plays a role in the oxidative metabolism of xenobiotics. Catalyzes the N-hydroxylation of heterocyclic amines and the O-deethylation of phenacetin (PubMed:14725854). Metabolizes caffeine via N3-demethylation (Probable)
