Azathioprine
AZATHIOPRIME is an immunosuppressive medication that is used to treat various medical conditions in which the immune system is overactive and causing damage. It's often prescribed to prevent rejection in organ transplant recipients and to manage autoimmune disorders. AZATHIOPRIME is sold under the brand name Imuran, among others.
Here's some key information about AZATHIOPRIME:
Mechanism of Action: AZATHIOPRIME works by inhibiting the proliferation of certain immune cells, particularly those involved in the inflammatory response. It suppresses the production of new DNA and RNA, which are essential for the replication of rapidly dividing cells, including immune cells.
Organ Transplantation: AZATHIOPRIME is commonly used in organ transplantation to prevent the body's immune system from attacking and rejecting the transplanted organ. It's often used in combination with other immunosuppressive medications.
Autoimmune Disorders: AZATHIOPRIME is also used to manage various autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and inflammatory bowel diseases (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis). In these conditions, the immune system attacks the body's own tissues, leading to inflammation and damage.
Dosage: The dosage of AZATHIOPRIME can vary widely depending on the condition being treated, the patient's response, and other factors. It's usually taken as an oral tablet.
Side Effects: Common side effects of AZATHIOPRIME can include nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, and fatigue. Since AZATHIOPRIME suppresses the immune system, it can increase the risk of infections. Long-term use may also be associated with a higher risk of developing certain cancers, particularly lymphoma. Regular monitoring of blood cell counts and liver function is important.
Precautions: AZATHIOPRIME should be used with caution in individuals with certain medical conditions, including liver problems and low levels of certain enzymes (thiopurine methyltransferase or TPMT). A deficiency in TPMT can increase the risk of experiencing severe side effects.
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: AZATHIOPRIME should not be used during pregnancy unless the potential benefits outweigh the risks. It can also pass into breast milk, so its use should be carefully considered while breastfeeding.
Monitoring: Close monitoring by a healthcare provider is necessary during treatment with AZATHIOPRIME to assess its effectiveness, manage side effects, and adjust the dosage if needed.
Discontinuation: The decision to discontinue or modify treatment with AZATHIOPRIME should be made in consultation with the healthcare provider, especially in the case of organ transplant recipients or individuals with autoimmune disorders.
