Deriphyllin M Tablet SR is a combination of three medicines: Etofylline/Etophylline, Theophylline and Montelukast. Etofylline/Etophylline and Theophylline are bronchodilators which work by relaxing the muscles in the airways and widen the airways. Montelukast is a leukotriene antagonist. It works by blocking the action of leukotriene, a chemical messenger. This reduces inflammation in the airways and nose to prevent asthma and relieve symptoms of allergies.
