Product Introduction
Psorid 100 mg capsule contains cyclosporine as its active ingredient. Cyclosporine is an immunosuppressant medication used to prevent organ rejection in patients following organ transplantation, including kidney, liver, and heart transplants. It is administered alongside other medicines to prevent the immune system from rejecting the transplanted organ. Following solid organ transplantation, the body mounts an aggressive immune response because it identifies the transplanted organ's antigens as foreign. Immunosuppressive therapy is therefore necessary after organ transplant to prevent rejection.
Immunosuppressants increase the risk of skin cancer. Limit sun exposure, wear protective clothing, and apply sunscreen with high SPF. Inform your doctor if you have recently received a vaccination with live vaccines. This medication should not be used in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to cyclosporine or any components of Psorid 100 mg capsule.
Cyclosporine can elevate blood pressure levels. It should be used with caution or avoided in individuals with uncontrolled high blood pressure or a history of hypertension. Discuss potential reproductive effects with your healthcare professional, particularly for those planning to conceive. Diabetes monitoring is important, especially for individuals at risk. Pricing for Psorid 100 mg capsule may vary based on location, brand availability, and pharmacy discounts.

Psorid 100mg capsule inhibits the activation of T-cells, a type of white blood cell involved in immune responses. This suppression of T-cell activity helps to prevent the immune system from attacking and damaging the transplanted organ, thereby increasing the chances of successful organ transplantation.
