Immunosuppressive medications prevent your immune system from attacking healthy cells and tissues. These drugs are used to prevent transplant rejection in people who have had organ or stem cell transplants. The medications can help with the symptoms of autoimmune diseases. Immunosuppressants are potent medications that must be closely monitored to avoid side effects. Immunosuppressants drugs are medications that suppress your immune system. The immune system of the body aids in the battle against pathogens that cause sickness. However, the immune system can sometimes target healthy cells and tissues by mistake. Immunosuppressive drugs can reduce or eliminate this reaction.

Immunosuppressants help organ transplant recipients avoid organ rejection. Your immune system recognises that the new organ is not a natural part of your body. It sees the new organ as a threat and will attempt to eliminate it. Immunosuppressants calm the immune system and safeguard the new organ. At the time of the organ transplant, you will be given high dosages of immunosuppressants drugs (induction drugs). This increases the chances of transplant success. You'll need to take immunosuppressants (maintenance medicines) every day for the rest of your life to avoid organ rejection.

As your immune system adjusts to the new organ, the medication dosage may be reduced. Prednisone is frequently prescribed by doctors for organ transplantation.

 

What’s the role of immunosuppressants in autoimmune diseases?

The immune system mistakes healthy tissue and cells for foreign invaders when you have an autoimmune disease (like germs). The immune system, in effect, turns on the body and fights it. This response can result in a variety of autoimmune disorders depending on whatever area of the body is attacked. Immunosuppressive drugs suppress the immune system, preventing cell damage and inflammation. These medications help to reduce symptoms. They can even induce remission in autoimmune diseases.

Many different drugs, foods, and supplements can alter the levels of immunosuppressants in the blood (up or down). Grapefruit juice, St. John's Wort, erythromycin, anti-TB (tuberculosis) drugs, anti-seizure medicines, and common blood pressure medicines are just a few examples.
