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.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Pentoxifylline was used in the treatment of 90 patients with atherosclerosis-induced chronic peripheral arterial occlusive disease and diabetic vascular disorders in the lower extremities (clinical Fontaine Stages III and IV) for whom surgical reconstructive treatment was not indicated and who had shown inadequate response to previous therapy."1.27Clinical investigation of the effects of pentoxifylline in patients with severe peripheral occlusive vascular disease. ( Seige, K; Sternitzky, R, 1985)
"A long-term trial with oral pentoxifylline ("Trental" 400) in a dosage of 1200 mg per day was carried out in 70 diabetic patients with and without vascular afflictions."1.27Diabetic retinal vascular complications and erythrocyte filtrability; results of a 2-year follow-up study with pentoxifylline.
