Patient summary
Ciclosporin 25mg and 100mg soft capsules, used in the management of transplant rejection, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. A calcineurin inhibitor.
Mechanism of action
Cyclosporine is a potent immunosuppressive agent that selectively inhibits the production and release of interleukin-2 by T-lymphocytes. This blocks the activation of T-cells, preventing the body from rejecting transplanted organs and suppressing autoimmune activity.
Neoral is the established brand of Ciclosporin, used primarily in the management of Transplant Rejection, Rheumatoid Arthritis and Psoriasis. The same active ingredient is also sold as Capimune. This medication is produced as a tablet in 25mg and 100mg strengths.
Buying Neoral online
Generic Ciclosporin, much of it sourced from manufacturing hubs in India, offers a more affordable alternative for patients requiring long term therapy far from their typical clinic. This specific medication is intended to be used strictly under a doctor’s care given the complexity of the underlying conditions.
