Theobromine: 3,7-Dimethylxanthine. The principle alkaloid in Theobroma cacao (the cacao bean) and other plants. A xanthine alkaloid that is used as a bronchodilator and as a vasodilator. It has a weaker diuretic activity than THEOPHYLLINE and is also a less powerful stimulant of smooth muscle. It has practically no stimulant effect on the central nervous system. It was formerly used as a diuretic and in the treatment of angina pectoris and hypertension. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, pp1318-9)
theobromine : A dimethylxanthine having the two methyl groups located at positions 3 and 7. A purine alkaloid derived from the cacao plant, it is found in chocolate, as well as in a number of other foods, and is a vasodilator, diuretic and heart stimulator.

| " These findings suggest that CA pharmacokinetic parameters can be estimated using a simplified three-point blood sampling procedure following a single oral load and that the serum PX/CA or (PX + TB + TP)/CA ratio in a single blood sample taken 2 or 4 h after dosing provides a useful indicator for the assessment of hepatic drug-oxidizing capacity, N-demethylation, in decompensated liver cirrhosis." | 5.28 | A simple useful method for the determination of hepatic function in patients with liver cirrhosis using caffeine and its three major dimethylmetabolites.
