Sandimmun Neoral 50ml Oral Solution 100mg/ml

Sandimmun 100mg/ml Oral Solution contains ciclosporin, a potent immunosuppressant used under specialist supervision. It helps prevent the body from rejecting transplanted organs or bone marrow by reducing excessive immune-system activity. Doctors may also prescribe ciclosporin for selected severe immune-related conditions, including certain forms of uveitis, nephrotic syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriasis, and atopic dermatitis when standard treatments are unsuitable or ineffective. The medicine works mainly by inhibiting calcineurin in T-lymphocytes, which reduces the production of interleukin-2 and other signals involved in immune responses. Sandimmun requires carefully individualised dosing and regular monitoring of ciclosporin blood levels, kidney and liver function, blood pressure, and electrolytes. Common adverse effects may include headache, tremor, increased hair growth, nausea, high blood pressure, and changes in kidney function. It can increase susceptibility to infections and certain cancers because it suppresses immunity. Patients should avoid grapefruit and must discuss all medicines, herbal products, and vaccinations with their doctor. Sandimmun and Sandimmun Neoral are not bioequivalent and must not be interchanged without medical supervision. Use the supplied measuring device and follow the prescribed schedule consistently at every single dose.
