CompositionPirfenex 200 mg Tablet is used to treat idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a lung condition that causes scarring and gradually worsening breathlessness. It helps slow the progression of lung scarring, though it does not reverse existing damage.
It contains pirfenidone, an anti-fibrotic and anti-inflammatory medicine. Take it with food as prescribed, as this helps reduce stomach upset. Continue taking it regularly as advised, as it works over time to slow disease progression.
Protect your skin from sunlight, as this medicine can make skin more sensitive to sun exposure. Use sunscreen, wear protective clothing, and avoid prolonged time outdoors during peak sun hours.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have liver problems or are taking other medicines. Your doctor will monitor your liver function regularly during treatment. Contact your doctor if you notice yellowing of the skin or eyes, dark urine, or unusual tiredness.
