MXTE 5 MG TABLET 10 contains methotrexate (5 mg), which works on your body in the following ways:

• Inhibits dihydrofolate reductase: Methotrexate blocks a key enzyme in your body called dihydrofolate reductase. This enzyme is crucial for the synthesis of DNA, RNA, thymidylates, and proteins.
• Targets actively multiplying tissues: Methotrexate affects tissues that are actively growing and multiplying. These include cancer cells, bone marrow, cells in the foetus, and skin cells in psoriasis.
• Modifies immune response: In cases of rheumatoid arthritis, the exact mechanism is unclear, but methotrexate seems to alter the immune response. This action can reduce inflammation, swelling, and pain in the joints within 3-6 weeks.

• Store MXTE 5 MG TABLET 10 at room temperature.
• Shield the tablets from light and moisture to maintain their efficacy.
• Always keep this medicine out of children's reach.
• Use your MXTE 5 MG TABLET 10 before the expiry date printed on the pack.

• If you're managing rheumatoid arthritis with MXTE 5 MG TABLET 10, try to include omega-3 fatty acids in your diet. Foods like fish and walnuts can help reduce inflammation.
