About XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S

  • XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S contains the active ingredient Tofacitinib. It belongs to a group of medicines called Janus kinase inhibitors (JAK inhibitors), which are a type of disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drug (DMARDs) and immunomodulator. These medicines work by changing how your body's defense system (immune system) acts. XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S is used on its own or with other medicines, like methotrexate, to treat adults with moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis. This is a condition where the body mistakenly attacks its own joints, causing pain, swelling, stiffness, and difficulty moving.
  • This medicine is also effective for treating psoriatic arthritis in adults, which causes joint pain and swelling along with scaly patches on the skin. Additionally, XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S is prescribed for adult patients suffering from moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis, an inflammatory bowel disease affecting the large intestine. Its uses also extend to treating ankylosing spondylitis, an inflammatory condition that primarily affects the spine, causing stiffness and pain.
  • XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S is also approved for treating active polyarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis, a long-term joint disease mainly causing pain and swelling, in children aged 2 years and older. By reducing the overactivity of the immune system, this medicine helps to decrease inflammation and reduce the symptoms of these conditions. It's important to know that because it affects the immune system, it can increase your risk of getting infections.
  • Before starting treatment with XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S, you must tell your doctor about all your medical conditions. Do not take this medicine if you are allergic to Tofacitinib or any other ingredients in the tablet. It's crucial to inform your doctor if you have any signs of an infection now, such as fever, chills, sweating, muscle aches, cough, shortness of breath, weight loss, skin sores, pain or difficulty swallowing, diarrhea, or stomach pain. You should also mention if you have ever had tuberculosis or if you have been exposed to someone with TB. A test for tuberculosis is usually done before starting this medicine.
  • Discuss with your doctor if you have or have ever had hepatitis B or C, as XELJANZ can cause the hepatitis B virus to become active again. Also, tell your doctor if you have kidney, liver, heart, or lung problems, high blood pressure, or high cholesterol. Smoking, either currently or in the past, is also important information to share with your doctor before taking this medicine, as it can affect your risk of certain side effects. Your doctor will evaluate your health and decide if XELJANZ 5MG TABLET 14'S is the right treatment for you.
