ARAVA TB 10MG

Arava TB 10mg contains the active ingredient leflunomide, a disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) used to treat rheumatoid arthritis and sometimes psoriatic arthritis. Leflunomide works by suppressing the immune system to reduce inflammation, joint damage, and the symptoms associated with these autoimmune conditions. By inhibiting the activity of certain immune cells, it helps slow the progression of the disease and improves physical function.

The 10mg dose of Arava is typically part of a treatment regimen that may be adjusted based on the patient’s response and tolerance to the medication. It's usually taken once daily, with or without food. Because leflunomide can have significant side effects, including liver toxicity and potential effects on the immune system, regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential. Patients may need to undergo periodic blood tests to check liver function and other parameters while on this medication.
