IPCA MMF 500MG TABLET 15'S

How IPCA MMF 500MG TABLET 15'S Works

• Mycophenolate mofetil is a "prodrug" that the body converts into its active form, mycophenolic acid. This active form blocks an enzyme (inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase) that immune cells — particularly T- and B-lymphocytes — depend on to make the building blocks (purines) needed to multiply. Because these immune cells rely heavily on this pathway, mycophenolate selectively slows their proliferation and reduces antibody production. This weakens the immune attack on a transplanted organ or on the body's own tissues in autoimmune disease.

Common: diarrhoea, nausea, vomiting, and stomach pain; lowered blood cell counts (low white cells, red cells, or platelets — causing increased infection risk, tiredness, or easy bruising); and a higher chance of infections. Because it suppresses immunity, there is an increased long-term risk of serious infections and of certain cancers, especially skin cancers and lymphoma. Serious (seek medical attention): signs of infection (fever, sore throat, persistent cough, urinary symptoms); unusual bruising or bleeding, or black/bloody stools; severe or persistent diarrhoea; symptoms of a rare brain infection (PML) such as confusion, weakness, or vision/speech changes; and signs of an allergic reaction. This medicine carries boxed warnings about serious birth defects/pregnancy loss and about increased infection and cancer risk.
