Application and Effect
Immunosuppression: Cyclosporin A is primarily used as an immunosuppressive agent. It suppresses the activity of the immune system, particularly T cells, which helps prevent the rejection of transplanted organs. This immunosuppressive effect is also useful in treating autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis or psoriasis where the immune system attacks the body's own cells. Organ Transplants: Cyclosporin A is widely used in solid organ transplantation, such as kidney, liver, heart, lung, or pancreas transplants. It is usually given in combination with other immunosuppressive drugs to prevent the recipient's immune system from attacking the transplanted organ. Dosage and Monitoring: The dosage of cyclosporin A varies depending on factors like the individual's body weight, organ function, and response to the drug. Blood levels of cyclosporin A are regularly monitored to ensure therapeutic levels are maintained without causing toxicity. These levels can also guide dosage adjustments for optimal effectiveness. Autoimmune Disorders: Besides organ transplantation, cyclosporin A can be prescribed for certain autoimmune conditions, such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis, to reduce the overactivity of the immune system and alleviate symptoms. In these cases, lower doses are usually required compared to transplant recipients.Product Packing:
