I take this for my Asthma. I have extreme nervousness from this drug. I am also have vision problems (blurriness). I have taken Theophylline for 34 yrs and have been on nerve medication for 34 years. I have stopped the Theophylline and am just taking 1/2 tablet and the nerveous is almost completely gone. The blurred vision bothers me alot.

Comment:
Theophylline has always worked well for me to control my asthma. I feel a little "shaky" at times but it is usually when I drink excessive amounts of coffee that interacts with the theophylline.
