About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Fibrodone 400mg Tablet contains Pirfenidone, an antifibrotic and anti-inflammatory agent primarily used in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a chronic and progressive lung disease characterized by scarring of lung tissue. Pirfenidone works by inhibiting the synthesis of collagen and other fibrogenic mediators, thereby slowing the progression of fibrosis and improving lung function. This medication helps reduce symptoms such as shortness of breath and cough, enhancing the quality of life for patients with IPF. Fibrodone is typically prescribed as part of a comprehensive treatment plan and should be taken orally with food to minimize gastrointestinal side effects. Common adverse effects may include nausea, rash, fatigue, and photosensitivity, so patients are advised to avoid excessive sun exposure and use protective measures when outdoors. Liver function tests are recommended periodically during treatment to monitor for potential hepatotoxicity. Fibrodone should be used under strict medical supervision, especially in patients with liver or kidney impairment. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and not discontinue the medication abruptly without consulting a healthcare professional. This medication is not indicated for use in children or pregnant women unless specifically advised by a physician.
