About Zymmune 100 Capsule 6's

Zymmune 100 Capsule 6's belongs to the class of medicine called 'immunosuppressant' that helps to reduce the pain/inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis conditions and is also used to treat severe psoriasis. Besides this, it also prevents organ rejection after a kidney, heart, or liver transplant. Rheumatoid arthritis is an autoimmune disease (the body's immune system attacks its tissue) that leads to joint pain and damage. Psoriasis is a long-lasting, inflammatory skin illness. 

Zymmune 100 Capsule 6's contains 'cyclosporine' that works by reducing the function of the cells, causing inflammation, especially in the joint tissues, thereby decreasing pain and inflammation and slowing down the joint damage and disease progression over time.
