Therapeutic Index

LEFUNODIN10 mg / 20 mg

Each tablet contains :

 

Composition:

Leflunomide         ......................................................................10 mg

Leflunomide         ......................................................................20 mg

 

Indications :

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.
