Cellcept 500mg Tablets Ingredients and Usage
Cellcept 500mg Tablets contain Mycophenolate Mofetil, an advanced immunosuppressant. This medication is clinically used in combination with other drugs (like cyclosporine and corticosteroids) for the prophylaxis of organ rejection in patients receiving allogeneic renal, cardiac, or hepatic transplants. It is a cornerstone therapy in transplant medicine, ensuring that the body’s immune system does not attack the newly transplanted organ. PakMeds understands the critical nature of this medication and ensures timely delivery for continuous patient care.
How Does Cellcept 500mg Tablets Work?
The active ingredient, Mycophenolate Mofetil, is a prodrug of mycophenolic acid (MPA). MPA is a potent, selective, and reversible inhibitor of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH). This enzyme is crucial for the de novo synthesis of guanosine nucleotides. Because T and B-lymphocytes are highly dependent on this specific pathway for their proliferation—unlike other cell types that can use salvage pathways—Cellcept effectively suppresses the immune response by limiting the production of these key immune cells, thereby preventing organ rejection.
Cellcept 500mg Tablets Side Effects
Common side effects include diarrhea, leukopenia (low white blood cell count), sepsis, and vomiting. Patients are also at an increased risk of infections due to suppressed immunity. Long-term use may be associated with an increased risk of developing certain cancers, such as lymphoma or skin cancer.
List of Warnings:
- Increased risk of developing opportunistic infections and viral reactivation (e.g., CMV, BK virus).
- May cause fetal harm; female patients must use effective contraception before, during, and after therapy.
- Regular blood monitoring (CBC) is required to detect potential bone marrow suppression.
- Should only be prescribed by physicians experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and organ transplantation.
