For what conditions are Xanthines primarily used?

  1. Asthma, chronic bronchitis, or emphysema

  2. Major depressive disorder

  3. Peptic ulcer disease

  4. Type 2 Diabetes

The correct answer is: Asthma, chronic bronchitis, or emphysema

Xanthines are mainly used to treat respiratory conditions including asthma, chronic bronchitis, and emphysema. They are not used to treat major depressive disorder (B), peptic ulcer disease (C), or type 2 diabetes (D). Xanthines are specifically used to open airways in the lungs and improve breathing in individuals with respiratory conditions. Therefore, the most accurate answer is A, and the other options are incorrect because they do not pertain to the main function and usage of xanthines.
