Introduction
Teru MS 14mg Tablet is an antineoplastic medication that belongs to the immunomodulatory category containing the active ingredient Teriflunomide. This medication treats relapsing forms of multiple sclerosis (MS), a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system, leading to communication problems between the brain and the body. This can result in various symptoms, including leg weakness, difficulty walking, lack of coordination, and vision problems. It helps to prevent relapses and slows down the progression of the disease by limiting the function of specific immune cells that cause nerve damage.
This drug is contraindicated in individuals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to it or its component. Inform your physician if you have high blood pressure, alcohol addiction, skin problems, breathing problems, or intolerance to certain sugars. These conditions may need special consideration when taking this medication. If you are about to receive vaccinations or specific blood tests (such as a calcium level test), it's important to inform your physician before taking Teru MS 14mg Tablet. Some medications can interact with vaccines or affect test results.
Teru MS 14mg Tablet is not recommended in individuals with severe liver or kidney disorders, serious infections, bone marrow disorders, immune system disorders (such as AIDS), or very low proteins in your blood. These conditions could interact with the medication or worsen its effects. This drug is unsafe to consume during pregnancy because it can harm an unborn baby and increase the risk of birth defects. If you become pregnant while taking this drug, you must inform your physician immediately. Consuming this medicine during breastfeeding is unsafe because it tends to get excreted in human milk
