Cronazar Ds Tablet 10 contains sulfasalazine (1000 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Anti-inflammatory action: Sulfasalazine reduces inflammation throughout the body, particularly in the intestines and joints, by blocking substances called prostaglandins that cause pain and swelling.

• Immune system modulation: The medicine affects your immune system by reducing its overactivity in conditions where the immune system mistakenly attacks healthy tissues.

• Intestinal activity: In the large intestine, bacteria break down sulfasalazine into two components: sulfapyridine and 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA). The 5-ASA component works directly on the intestinal lining to reduce inflammation.

• Joint protection: By modifying immune responses and inhibiting inflammatory mediators in the body, sulfasalazine helps slow down joint damage in rheumatoid arthritis and related conditions.

• For inflammatory bowel conditions: Maintain adequate fluid intake (at least 8 glasses of water daily) to support kidney function and reduce the risk of kidney-related side effects.
