About This Medicine
Product description & overview
Fibrodone Tablet contains Pirfenidone 200mg, 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 reducing the production of fibrogenic mediators, thereby slowing the progression of fibrosis and improving lung function. This medication helps to alleviate symptoms such as shortness of breath and cough, enhancing the quality of life for patients with IPF. Fibrodone is typically prescribed under medical supervision, with dosage adjusted based on individual patient response and tolerability. Common side effects may include gastrointestinal discomfort, rash, dizziness, and photosensitivity, so patients are advised to avoid excessive sun exposure and use protective measures. Liver function tests are recommended periodically during treatment to monitor for potential hepatic effects. Fibrodone should be taken with food to minimize gastrointestinal irritation. It is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Pirfenidone or its components. As with any prescription medication, patients should inform their healthcare provider of all concurrent medications and medical conditions to avoid potential interactions and ensure safe use.
