Controlled substances policyAbout immunosuppressants
Immunosuppressants are a class of medications that reduce the intensity of the immune response in the body. Immunosuppressants are usually required to avoid transplant rejection of an organ.
What do immunosuppressants treat?
Immunosuppressants are prescribed to patients who are at risk of transplant rejection or who have an autoimmune disease such as Rheumatoid arthritis, Ulcerative colitis, Psoriasis, Lupus, Sjogren’s syndrome, and Systemic sclerosis.
Types of Immunosuppressants
Based on the primary site of action, immunosuppressants are classified as inhibitors of transcription, inhibitors of nucleotide synthesis, inhibitors of growth factor signal transduction, and inhibitors of transduction.
How Immunosuppressants work?
Immunosuppressants act on different sites of action based on their subclass. Cyclosporine and Tacrolimus inhibit the transcription of cells. Medications like Azathioprine, Mycophenolate Mofetil, Mizoribine, and Leflunomide are inhibitors of nucleotide synthesis, so they cease the synthesis of nucleotides in cells to suppress the immune system subsequently. Medications like Sirolimus and Leflunomide are inhibitors of differentiation (15-deoxyspergualin), and this is how they exhibit their immunosuppressive effect.
