About Panimun Bioral 100 mg Capsule

Panimun Bioral 100 mg Capsule belongs to a group of medications called 'immunosuppressants,' primarily used to prevent organ transplant rejection after liver, kidney, pancreas, lungs, heart, skin, and bone marrow transplants. It is also used to treat symptoms associated with psoriasis and rheumatoid arthritis. Organ transplant rejection occurs when the immune system attacks a transplanted organ. Psoriasis is a long-lasting, inflammatory skin illness.  Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease, where the body's immune system attacks its own tissue, leading to joint pain and damage.

Panimun Bioral 100 mg Capsule contains 'cyclosporine,' which works by suppressing the immune system, thereby stopping your body from rejecting a new organ. It also reduces rapid skin cell growth and the production of interleukins (molecules involved in inflammation), which are needed for T cells to activate and attack the body. Additionally, it also reduces pain and inflammation in the joints and slows down the joint damage caused by an overactive immune system.

You are advised to take Panimun Bioral 100 mg Capsule for as long as your doctor has prescribed it, depending on your medical condition. You may experience headaches, vomiting, nausea, high blood pressure, increased hair growth, loss of appetite (feeling unwell and upset stomach), kidney disease, and diarrhoea.
