Description
Cellcept 250 Capsule 10’S
Cellcept 250 mg Tablet 10’s belongs to a class of medications called ‘immunosuppressants’ used to prevent the body from rejecting a transplanted organ such as a kidney, heart or liver. Transplant rejection occurs when the recipient’s immune system identifies the transplanted organ as a ‘foreign object’ and attacks it. If it is not treated promptly, it may cause irreversible damage. Cellcept 250 mg Tablet 10’s contains ‘Mycophenolate mofetil’ used in the treatment of organ transplant rejection along with another immunosuppressant and anti-inflammatory agent. It inhibits T and B lymphocytes (a type of white blood cell that attacks foreign cells) and suppresses the production of antibodies (identify and kill foreign cells). These effects suppress the immune system so that the transplanted graft is not rejected. Take Cellcept 250 mg Tablet 10’s as prescribed. Your doctor will advise you on how often you take Cellcept 250 mg Tablet 10’s based on your medical condition. The common side effects of Cellcept 250 mg Tablet 10’s are diarrhoea, vomiting, decreased white blood cells and red blood cell count and infections.
