Sprintas 100 Capsule 5 contains cyclosporine (100 mg) and works on the body as follows:

• Calcineurin inhibition: Cyclosporine effectively inhibits an enzyme called calcineurin. This enzyme is crucial for activating T-lymphocytes - key cells that play a significant role in your body's immune response.

• Suppresses immunity: By blocking calcineurin, cyclosporine prevents the activation and proliferation of T-cells, thus dampening your immune response. This makes your body less likely to reject a transplanted organ as a foreign object.

• Control inflammation: The suppression of immune responses also helps control inflammation in autoimmune disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis and psoriasis.

• Store Sprintas 100 Capsule 5 at a controlled room temperature.

• Make sure the medicine is kept in a place protected from light and moisture.

• Keep this medicine out of the reach of children.

• If you're using Sprintas 100 Capsule 5 for managing rheumatoid arthritis, consider following an anti-inflammatory diet rich in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to help reduce inflammation.

• For those taking Sprintas 100 Capsule 5 due to a transplant, remember to practise good hygiene and avoid contact with people who are sick, as your immune system is suppressed.
