Diprophylline is a xanthine derivative used as a bronchodilator for the treatment of respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It is less potent than theophylline but offers a more favorable safety profile. Diprophylline has been used in clinical practice in several countries, but its use has diminished due to the introduction of more effective and safer bronchodilators. It is not widely approved or commonly used in modern practice.
