Renodapt S 360mg is a prescription medication used after liver, kidney and heart transplantation to help prevent organ rejection. The active ingredient in the medicine is mycophenolate, an immunosuppressant. This class of medications works to suppress or reduce the body’s response. Mycophenolate mofetil must be prescribed with other medications, such as corticosteroids (prednisolone, prednisone, methylprednisolone, prednisolone acetate, methylprednisolone acetate) and cyclosporine, which can also suppress your immune system. Together, these medications help prevent organ rejection after transplantation. Your immune system responds to protect you from infections and other foreign material. When you undergo a transplant surgery, your immune system identifies the new organ as foreign material and will attempt to reject it. Renodapt S is introduced to reduce rejection and increase your body's likelihood of accepting the transplanted organ.
Precautions of Renodapt S 360mg
Renodapt S is contraindicated in patients with a hypersensitivity to mycophenolate mofetil or any component of the medication. It should not be used during pregnancy due to its potential to cause congenital issues in the unborn baby. The medication should be avoided by women of childbearing potential who are not using highly effective birth control measures. Moreover, the use of Renodapt S is contraindicated in women who are breastfeeding.
You must be advised to use two reliable methods of birth control before you begin taking Renodapt S, during the entire treatment and for about six weeks after stopping your treatment with this medication. Discuss with your healthcare provider about the most suitable birth control methods for you. This generally depends on your individual situation. Sexually active men are advised to use condoms while receiving Renodapt S medicine.
Avoid consuming this drug along with bumetanide, furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide, gentamycin, tobramycin, amphotericin B, ibuprofen, tacrolimus, and vancomycin. While using this medication, you should not be treated with alternative bisphosphonates or with alternative brands of Renodapt S to prevent or treat bone loss (osteoporosis).
Always consult your physician and pharmacist if you are taking any other medicines, including herbal tonics, supplements, and over-the-counter medications. During treatment with Mycophenolate mofetil, any vaccination may be less effective, and live vaccines should be avoided. Discuss with your healthcare provider before you get any vaccine.
Side effects Renodapt S 360mg
Like all medications, along with the beneficial effects, Mycophenolate mofetil may contribute to side effects in people. Because mycophenolate mofetil and the other medication are used to suppress your immune system, you are more prone to infections. To reduce the risk of infection, let your healthcare specialist know about any cold or flu-like symptoms (such as sore throat, fever), any boils on your skin, or pain when urinating. Patients taking Renodapt S along with corticosteroids and cyclosporine may get an increase in blood pressure.
Serious common and uncommon side effects have been reported with Mycophenolate Mofetil when taken along with cyclosporine and corticosteroids. Common ones include constipation, blood in the urine, abdominal, chest, or back pain, headache, vomiting, weakness, swelling of a part of your body, nosebleed, heartburn, nausea, and fever. Other side effects include inflammation, itching, rashes, weight gain, profuse sweating, vertigo, breathing problems, suffocation, dark urine, increased heart palpitations, cough, cold, nausea, vomiting, puffy face and neck, dizziness, changes in vision, dull skin, and paralysis. Uncommon side effects associated with the use of Mycophenolate mofetil include dizziness, increased cough, bloody or black, tarry stools, stomach pain, sleeplessness, and fatigue.
How to use Renodapt S 360mg? (infographics and instructions)
The dose is usually based on your medical condition and the response to the medication. Renodapt S 360mg is taken orally as a tablet, usually twice daily. It should be taken on an empty stomach. The initial dose of this medication should be consumed as soon as possible following transplantation. If you have any doubt about the dose or when to take it, ask your healthcare specialist. As mentioned above, Renodapt S must be used in combination with other immunosuppressant medications. Discuss with your healthcare specialist whether you should stop or continue using the other immunosuppressant medicines you are currently taking. Prefer taking your doses at the same time daily. Taking the medication at the same time each day helps you remember to take it. Vomiting or diarrhoea may help prevent this anti-rejection medicine from being taken up into your body. Inform your healthcare specialist straight away if you have either of these episodes. You should not stop taking mycophenolate mofetil on your own if you have been using it for several years as advised.
