Azoran 25 Tablet contains azathioprine (25 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Prodrug conversion: Azathioprine is converted in your body to its active form called 6-mercaptopurine, which is responsible for its therapeutic effects.

• Purine synthesis inhibition: It blocks the production of purines, which are essential building blocks needed for the creation of DNA and RNA in rapidly dividing cells like immune cells.

• T-cell and B-cell reduction: It decreases the production of important immune cells called T-lymphocytes and B-lymphocytes, which are responsible for attacking foreign substances in your body.

• DNA synthesis interference: It becomes incorporated into DNA, preventing normal DNA formation and replication, which helps suppress excessive immune responses.

• Immunosuppression: By reducing immune cell activity, it helps prevent organ rejection in transplant patients and reduces inflammation in autoimmune diseases.

• Store this tablet at room temperature, in the original tightly sealed container in a safe place.

• Check the expiry date and do not use the medicine after this date.

• For autoimmune conditions: Follow an anti-inflammatory diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids (found in fish like salmon) and antioxidants (found in colourful fruits and vegetables) to help reduce inflammation alongside your medication.

• For organ transplant patients: Maintain strict food hygiene practices to prevent foodborne infections, as azathioprine suppresses your immune system, making you more vulnerable to these illnesses.
