A man who smokes one pack of cigarettes daily has been diagnosed with chronic bronchitis. He has been prescribed theophylline by

his family doctor. What effect will the patient's smoking status have on the therapeutic use of theophylline?Response Feedback: Smoking cigarettes may decrease serum theophylline levels. In fact, some patients who smoke require an increase in theophylline dosage of up to 50%. Theophylline is not associated with a risk of anaphylactoid reaction. Theophylline doses do not need to be concurrent with the use of bronchodilators

Answer:

Smoking cigarettes may decrease serum theophylline levels. Intact some patients who smoke require an increase in serum theophylline dosage of up to 50%.

ACCOMMODATION is the change in the adjustment of the eye lens to help focus light ray.

RETINA helps to receive light rays that the lens has focused. It contains two cells: rods and cones

Fovea Centralis is at the center of the retina responsible for sharp and accurate vision, also it is where cones cells cluster.
