Mycomofirel 500mg Tablet

About

Mycomofirel 500mg Tablet is an immunosuppressant medication used in combination with other drugs to prevent organ rejection following a transplant, such as a kidney, heart, or liver. It works by weakening the body’s immune response so it does not attack the transplanted organ. The dosage and frequency of this medicine depend on the type of transplant you have received, and it is essential to follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. It should be taken on an empty stomach—either at least one hour before or two hours after a meal—unless advised otherwise by your doctor. The tablet should be swallowed whole without crushing, chewing, or breaking. For the best results, take the medicine consistently and continue using it as prescribed, even if you feel well, as it is necessary to maintain its effect in preventing organ rejection.

Common side effects of Mycomofirel 500mg Tablet include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, stomach pain, headache, high blood pressure, and infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria. It can also lead to changes in white blood cell counts, making you more susceptible to infections. Due to its immunosuppressive nature, long-term use may increase the risk of certain cancers, including skin cancer. To reduce this risk, it is advisable to limit sun exposure and use sunscreen regularly. Since the medication can cause serious side effects, including those that require immediate medical attention, you should be aware of what symptoms to watch for and consult your doctor with any concerns.

This medicine can cause birth defects and miscarriage, so it should not be used during pregnancy, while planning to conceive, or during breastfeeding. Inform your doctor if you have any signs of infection, unusual bruising, or bleeding. It is also important to disclose all other medications you are taking, as they may interact with Mycomofirel 500mg Tablet. Regular blood tests will be necessary to monitor your blood cell counts, as well as sugar and cholesterol levels, to ensure safe and effective use of the medication.
