Description
Cellcept Tablets 500mg — Mycophenolate Mofetil
Cellcept Tablets 500mg (Mycophenolate Mofetil) is an original Roche immunosuppressive medicine indicated for the prophylaxis of acute organ rejection in adult patients receiving allogeneic renal, cardiac, or hepatic transplants. It is used in combination with ciclosporin and corticosteroids as part of a standard immunosuppressive protocol.
Mycophenolate Mofetil inhibits inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH), selectively suppressing T- and B-lymphocyte proliferation by blocking de novo purine synthesis. This targeted mechanism reduces the immune response responsible for transplant rejection without the nephrotoxicity associated with calcineurin inhibitors.
- Prophylaxis of acute rejection in renal, cardiac, and hepatic transplant patients
- Selective inhibition of lymphocyte proliferation via IMPDH blockade
- Used in combination with ciclosporin and corticosteroids
- Original Roche formulation — clinical-grade quality and consistency
- Requires regular haematological monitoring including full blood counts
Dosage and Administration
Administer Cellcept only under the supervision of a physician experienced in immunosuppressive therapy and transplant management. The typical dose for renal transplant is 1g twice daily (2g/day). Cardiac and hepatic transplant protocols use 1.5g twice daily (3g/day). Dosage must be individualised based on clinical response and haematological tolerability. Swallow tablets whole; do not crush. Regular CBC monitoring is essential to detect leucopenia or other haematological effects.
