Summary

Part I of this article, which appeared in the previous issue of the Journal, covered the effects or lack of effects on theophylline clearance of sympathomimetics, corticosteroids, antihistamines and other antiallergy drugs, antimicrobial agents, Phenytoin, carbamazepine, barbiturates, antacids and activated charcoal. In Part II, this discussion is extended to the effects of other agents. Overall summaries, both textual and tabular, appear in Part I.
