INTRODUCTION
AZAPURE 50MG contains azathioprine which belongs to a group of medicines called immunosuppressants. It helps to reduce or suppress your body’s own immune system. Your immune system helps to protect you against infections. But at sometimes if you have an organ transplant, your immune system will try to reject new organ. This medicine helps in preventing the immune response which allows the transplanted organs to work. Hence it is used with corticosteroids to improve the survival of transplanted organs.
Azathioprine is also used to treat conditions caused by your immune system overreacting or reacting abnormally such as rheumatoid arthritis (inflammation and pain in joints), hepatitis (inflamed liver), hemolytic anaemia, dermatomyositis (inflammation of the muscles and skin) and polyarteritis nodosa (inflammation of your blood vessels). AZAPURE 50MG may be used alone, or in combination with other medicines to treat these conditions.
