How Should Deryphylin Injection Be Administered To An Asthmatic Patient?

Hello Doc!
How should Deryphylin injection be administered to a patient suffering from acute Ashtma since past 50 years? Is it in combination with Betnesol? Is it intravenous or muscular?Dosage?Is it the last resort after inhalers like Seroflow 125 fail to comfort?
Kindly give easily understandable answers so I can be ready with equipment if my father needs it.
He is 75 and allergic to certain dusts and pollens,humidity,damp weather, and feels good in an air conditioned room.
Thank you!

Hello Sanjay
Your father is 70 years old and an asthmatic patient .
When such patient visit with these symptoms I prescribe my patient MONTELEKAST+ BAMBUTEROL tablet once or twice in day depending on the condition of patient and severity of symptoms .
Usually patients responds very well and don't require any inhaler .
Now about deriphyllin injection ( don't gibe betnesol as this is very dangerous for prolong use and keep this drug only for acute emergency ).
So DERIPHYLLINE is available in 2 ml strength .
Take 2 ml in a syringe and introduce in vein ( INTRAVENOUS ) and insert medicine in the vein very very slow .
2nd option is intramuscular either in the deltoid ( shoulder ) or gluteal muscle (hip ) .
Avoidance for pollen , mold , pests ( cockroaches ) , hay, fodder,fine dusting powder , sudden fall and rise of temperature , humidity , mite, dust are certain predisposing factor which triggers an asthmatic attack.
Air conditioner , hot coffee , steam inhalation also helps.
Hope these information will be helpful for your father.
