Thaangio 50 MG Capsule 10 contains Thalidomide (50 mg), which works on the body as follows:

• Immunomodulation: Thalidomide adjusts the functioning of your immune system by regulating various immune responses, helping to control abnormal cell growth in multiple myeloma.

• Anti-inflammatory action: It inhibits the production of tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), an inflammatory chemical in your body that contributes to tissue damage and inflammation in conditions like lepra reactions.

• Immune cell regulation: Thalidomide alters the activity of specific immune cells, helping to reduce inappropriate immune responses that can worsen certain conditions.

• Plasma cell control: It helps manage the abnormal growth of plasma cells (a type of white blood cell) in the bone marrow, which is particularly important in multiple myeloma management.

• Return unused capsules to your pharmacy for safe disposal.

• If you have multiple myeloma, try to include more calcium and vitamin D-rich foods (like dairy products, leafy greens, and fortified cereals) in your diet to help maintain bone strength, as this cancer can weaken bones.

• For patients with lepra reactions, consuming anti-inflammatory foods such as turmeric, ginger, and omega-3-rich fish may help complement the immunomodulatory (immune system-regulating) effects of thalidomide.
