Cyclodose 50 Mg (Cyclosporine) is used in combination with other medicines (eg, azathioprine, steroid medicines) to prevent the body from rejecting a transplanted organ (eg, kidney, liver, or heart). It belongs to a group of medicines known as immunosuppressive agents. When a patient receives an organ transplant, the body's white blood cells will try to get rid of (reject) the transplanted organ. Cyclosporine works by suppressing the immune system to prevent the white blood cells from trying to get rid of the transplanted organ.
Cyclodose 50 Mg (Cyclosporine) is also used to treat severe active rheumatoid arthritis in patients who have taken other medicines (eg, methotrexate) that did not work well. It is also used to treat severe plaque psoriasis, which is a skin disease with red patches and white scales that do not go away. It is given to patients who have received other types of treatment (eg, PUVA, retinoids, methotrexate) that did not work well.
Cyclodose 50 Mg (Cyclosporine)
Cyclosporine is commonly used for the following conditions.
- Prevention of organ rejection, which is when your body is not accepting a transplanted organ, in kidney, liver, and heart transplantation. Cyclosporine may also be used for other organ transplants.
