Overview

Propentofylline (HWA 285) is a xanthine derivative with purported neuroprotective effects.

Pharmacology

It is a phosphodiesterase inhibitor.^[1]

It also acts as an adenosine reuptake inhibitor.^[1]^[2]^[3]

Uses

It was studied as a possible treatment for Alzheimer's disease and multi-infarct dementia.^[4]^[5]

Propentofylline has also been studied, to a lesser extent, as a possible adjunct in the treatment of ischemic stroke, due to its vasodilating properties.^[6]^[7]

Propentofylline is in use in veterinary medicine as a geriatric preparation for old dogs.
