Etret 10 Tablet 10 contains methotrexate (10 mg), which acts on your body in the following ways:

• It works by inhibiting the enzyme dihydrofolate reductase, which is essential for DNA synthesis and cell replication. This action slows the growth of rapidly dividing cells, making it effective in treating cancers like leukemia and certain autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis. Methotrexate reduces inflammation and suppresses the immune system to control disease progression. It is used under strict medical supervision due to potential side effects.
