Bromotheophylline diuretic action will produce an immediate increase in urination frequency. This effect aids in the relief of bloating and menstrual pain. This diuretic function is performed by the an increase in glomerular filtration and a potential effect in the tubular reabsorption as it is established that the administration of these agents produce a rise in the urinary concentration of sodium a chloride and thus, an increase in their rates of excretion.

Bromotheophylline is part of the group of the xanthines. As part of this group, it is thought that bromotheophylline increases the permeability of the renal tubule, increases glomerular filtration rate and inhibits the sodium reabsorption in the proximal tubule. It is thought but not confirmed that pamabrom as a mixture seems to have an additional mechanism of action in which the presence of 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol produces the suppression of the antidiuretic hormone in the posterior pituitary gland.

When administered after one single oral dosage, bromotheophylline is rapidly absorbed and it reaches a maximal plasma concentration of 2.5 mg/L in 0.78 hours. The mean residence time is registered to be of 12 hours with an AUC in the first 8 hours of 27 mg.h/L.
