Product Description

Folitrax 15 Tablet is a medicine used for the treatment of cancer in various parts of the body. It is also used to treat rheumatoid arthritis, severe and uncontrolled psoriasis, and Crohn’s disease. It works by slowing the growth of abnormal cells and reducing immune system activity in autoimmune conditions.
 

Folitrax 15 Tablet may be used alone or in combination with other medicines. You should take it exactly as your doctor has advised. Taking too much of it can cause serious side effects. It may take several weeks or months for you to see or feel the benefits, but do not stop taking it unless your doctor tells you to.

 

The most common side effects of this medicine are ulcerative stomatitis, hair loss, low blood cell count, increased liver enzymes, nausea, and abdominal distress. Your doctor may advise you to take folic acid to reduce some of these. If they do not go away or get worse, tell your doctor. There may be ways of preventing or reducing these effects.

 

Folitrax 15 Tablet may lower your ability to fight infections and lead to problems with your blood, liver, or kidneys. Your doctor may perform several tests, such as blood tests, X-rays, and physical examinations, both before and during the treatment with this medicine to check for these problems.

 

Before taking it, tell your doctor if you have problems related to the stomach, liver, or kidneys, or are taking any medicines to treat infections. Many other medicines can affect or be affected by this medicine, so let your doctor know about all your medications. This medicine is not recommended during pregnancy or while breastfeeding, as it may harm the baby. You should avoid consuming alcohol while taking this medicine, as it may increase your risk of liver damage.
