Doximar Tablet contains Doxophylline 200 mg, a bronchodilator used for the management of respiratory conditions such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Doxophylline relaxes the smooth muscles of the airways, improving airflow and relieving bronchospasm. It also offers anti-inflammatory effects and is associated with fewer side effects compared to conventional theophylline, making it a safer option for long-term management of obstructive airway disorders.
