Rheumatoid arthritis.
Description:
Leflunomide is an oral, disease-modifying drug that is
used in the treatment of
rheumatoid arthritis.
Leflunomide reduces inflammation in the
joints that is responsible for both the
symptoms of rheumatoid
arthritis and the destruction
of joints. This reduces symptoms as well
as the progressive deformities of the
joints caused by the arthritis.
Leflunomide reduces inflammation by
suppressing the activity of immune cells
responsible for the inflammation.
Leflunomide suppresses immune cells by
inhibiting dihydroorotate dehydrogenase,
an enzyme that is necessary for the
production of DNA and RNA. Without DNA
and RNA the immune cells (and most other
types of cells) cannot multiply or
function (or exist).
Dosage:
As per the physician’s advice.
