Theophylline Caffeine

Updated

my name is nelson ramos. I race pigeons in staten island ny, i am currently being accused of doping my race pigeons with theophylline, as i also was told from a lab that the birds had caffeine in them. A pigeon fancier that has a product that contains caffeinne in it as i used it the day droppings were taken he did some resurch and is claiming that the way the caffeine breaks down in pigeons dosent match the way i was told it was breaking down in the pigeons. at the time of the test of the droppings the birds had 101 nanograms of theophlline and 53 nanograms of theobromine. does anyone know the actual break down? basicly im trying to find out if the chemical found was from a respertory med or caffeine.?? thanks

I'm sorry, but our information speciality is on medications and their usage in humans, we have no information on using them in animals and how they may be metabolized.

In this instance, I believe you would be best suited to consult a veterinarian.

Have you done so, yet?

Good day, did you ever get an answer to this post. From South Africa, and also researching the testing of racing pigeons for the same substances you mentioned.
