Immunosuppressant

Immunosuppressant drugs are medications that reduce the activity of the immune system and can be used to treat a variety of conditions, such as autoimmune diseases, organ transplants, and some types of cancer. They work by suppressing the body's immune response, which helps to reduce inflammation and prevent the body from attacking itself or foreign substances. Immunosuppressants can be taken orally, as injections, or applied topically. They can be used in combination with other medications to treat more severe conditions. Possible side effects of immunosuppressants include increased risk of infection, increased risk of cancer, and increased risk of kidney damage.
