What are the toxic effects of Theophylline?

Persistent vomiting, arrhythmias, seizures
Hypotension, bradycardia, depression
Hypertension, tachycardia, euphoria
Constipation, headache, dizziness

The correct answer is: Persistent vomiting, arrhythmias, seizures

The correct answer is A. The toxic effects of Theophylline include persistent vomiting, arrhythmias, and seizures. Theophylline is a bronchodilator and a methylxanthine derivative that is used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In cases of overdose or toxicity, Theophylline can lead to severe adverse effects such as persistent vomiting, cardiac arrhythmias (including tachycardia), and seizures. Monitoring drug levels is crucial to prevent toxicity and manage the adverse effects associated with Theophylline. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the typical toxic effects associated with Theophylline. Hypotension, bradycardia, depression, hypertension, tachycardia, euphoria, constipation, headache, and dizziness are not commonly observed toxic effects of Theophylline.
