- Abstract
Reports of toxic serum theophylline concentrations in adults following influenza vaccination prompted this study. Peak and trough serum theophylline concentrations were measured in eight severely asthmatic children before and after vaccination against influenza. All eight children had been treated with chronic theophylline therapy for at least one year prior to joining the study. No significant alteration of theophylline levels were seen up to 52 hours after vaccination. No clinical evidence of drug toxicity developed.
